Old drainage pipes turned into a flower rack: the old man thinks 50 pots of flowers is too few

Nowadays the trend of growing flowers only keeps growing, and more and more people are joining this trend. Many people, when they have nothing to do, like to buy a few novel flowers to keep at home, and Huahua is this kind of person too, which has led to more and more flowers at home, and naturally the number of flower pots is too many to count.

While growing them, I didn't feel there was anything wrong, but a couple of days ago when Huahua was cleaning at home, I felt it: too many flower pots really are hard to deal with. Because over time, when we water and fertilize, stains are left on the ground, and sometimes soil spills out of the flower pots; even more importantly, so many flower pots really occupy "half the wall" of the balcony. At this point Huahua wanted to buy a flower rack to arrange them.

But most flower racks on the market now are wooden with spaced tiers. Buy a smaller one and it can't hold many pots of flowers; buy a larger one and it takes up quite a lot of space. A couple of days ago Huahua went to the neighbor old man's house to admire the flowers and found his flower rack was really good: it doesn't take up space and holds a lot of flowers. Upon asking, it turned out the old man made it himself from old water pipes. So Huahua hurried to ask for the making method and came back to share it with everyone!

The material the old man used to make the flower rack was just two old drainage pipes. Because the flowers are arranged vertically, it doesn't take up too much space.

The first thing to do is make the flower pot supports. First take one of the old water pipes, then use a knife to cut it into small rings of 10 cm each for later use. The number of rings can be decided according to the number of flowers in your own home.

The next step is to glue the cut rings onto another plastic water pipe with glue specially for bonding plastic pipes. Remember that when gluing, each ring should be spaced a certain distance apart, so there is enough space to place potted flowers. Also, when gluing, it's best to use some force, so that later they won't fall off because the bond isn't firm.

Next is making the flower rack base

The flower rack base can be made with cement concrete, but the making process and method are a bit more troublesome. At this time we can use a plastic stool instead. First clean the surface of the plastic stool, then sand the bottom face of the support water pipe smooth. After sanding, apply glue to the plastic stool and the bottom face of the water pipe. After sticking them together, test the stability and then you can place your home's flowers on it.

However, due to load-bearing reasons, it's best to place plastic flower pots on the flower rack. We can also use plastic cups to make small flower pots. In this way, one water pipe flower rack can hold about 50 pots of flowers. This kind of water pipe flower rack takes up little space and is practical. Friends who are interested can start making one. Also, if you have better ways to place flower pots, you can leave a message and share them with Huahua!
