I have added a new post about my wall planter that answers a lot of the questions I have been getting.

I have been canning peaches so I had mason jars on the brain. I have seen several versions of this idea. I have seen them used on coat racks, for bathroom stuff and for craft supplies. So since I was needing another nature decor item for my hallway I thought, why not use them as planters??? I hung them in my hallway.

I have always wanted to put a shelf or something on this wall but since it is the hallway and there is a lot of traffic, I was worried things would get bumped and fall off.

Supplies:

(affiliate links)

*Easy care house plants (such as Pothos and Philodendron )

*Quart Mason Jars

*Heavy Duty All Stainless Hose Clamp

*Boards

*Quality Potting Soil

*Rocks or gravel for drainage

I made sure and picked plants that were meant for medium light and that didn’t grow super fast. I don’t want to have to transplant them for awhile.

Step #1.

I got a scrap piece of wood and laid the clamp on it. I got a nail that was about the size of the screw I would be using, and then hammered the nail into one of the slits in the clamp. It forced the slit in the clamp open so I could then screw it to the barn wood board.

Step #2.

I screwed the clamps to the board.

Step #3.

Then I screwed the board to the wall. When the jars are added they will hide the screws used to attach it to the wall.

Step #4.

Add rocks to the bottom of the jar. Add a little potting soil and then the plant. Add more potting soil around the plant.

Step #5.

While I held the jar in place I tightened the clamp. Those babies aren’t going anywhere!

What is your favorite way to display houseplants?
