The wooden planter is always in fashion. This absolute classic is still a favorite for terraces and balconies. We give you 20 inspiring ideas for making a wooden planter a beautiful feature in your outdoor space.
Wooden planters – design options

The wood planter has many advantages. Compared with heavy steel containers, it is more mobile. The warm color of wood creates an inviting atmosphere on the terrace or balcony. Wooden planters are also dependable in cold weather: if they are oiled twice a year, they can easily withstand the elements. For a harmonious look, experts recommend choosing planters made from the same material as the terrace floor. Small terraces and balconies can also be arranged on several levels; changes in height add structure and make the planters part of the garden design.
Build a wooden planter yourself

Anyone can build a wooden planter. The task is not difficult if the individual pieces of wood are cut at the hardware store and then simply assembled at home. Do not forget to line the planter and add a drainage layer of expanded clay at the bottom. This helps give the planter a long service life. Show off your new wooden planter beautifully by combining grasses, shrubs, and flowers.
