My wife wanted to have a more decorated driveway. So I took some scrap 2×4s and some #2 white pine and made her a planter box to go infront of the gutter spout.

That’s a great project…. nothing complicated, but looks very nice. Should be worth some honey-do points for sure.

I think the flowers make the box look better. Cudos to my wife who planted them.

A very nice looking project Ric. A job well done. I may give a few of those a try!

I really like the proportions. What are the measurements please?

Really like the way this one looks, particularly the relative size and thickness of the top frame to the rest of the box. Very nice for scrap, and the flowers do make a difference!

Mot, it has a shelf inside about six inches deep that the flower pot sits on. The whole thing is 17” tall.
