How to create a potted plant stand
Create this simple painted plant pot stand using some offcuts of treated timber and a little bit of Resene know-how.

Difficulty level: Moderate
You will need: 40mm galvanised nails, Hammer, Paintbrush, Pencil , PVA glue (exterior), Resene Lustacryl tinted to Resene Paua, Resene Quick Dry, Sandpaper, Saw, Tape measure Treated timber (we used offcuts measuring 25mm x 50mm)
To get the look: Mark painted the concrete patio with Resene Non-Skid Deck & Path paint tinted to Resene Scorched Clay.
Instructions
Step one Mark five pieces of timber measuring 600mm and two pieces of timber measuring 300mm.
Step two Use the back of the saw to mark cutting lines, as shown.
Step three Cut the lengths of timber using the pencil lines as a guide.
Step fourSmooth any cut edges with sandpaper.
Step five Attach two of the longer lengths to the two shorter lengths, as shown, fixing at each corner with PVA glue and nails.
Step six Repeat step five, fixing the remaining lengths in position, as shown. Allow glue to dry.
Step seven 
Step eight Apply two coats of Resene Paua to the plant pot stand, allowing two hours for each coat to dry.
Other ideas: The plant pot stand could also be stained with any colour from the Resene Woodsman range.
