Few months back, I was finding ways to create weatherproof plantex box that saves space. This is because it is hard for me to find weatherproof racks to display my herbs. Have been scratching my head for quite some time because I've been ordering and buying lots of seeds (getting addicted to collecting seeds) and I have to place them somewhere. I can't put it on the floor because I let 1 of my rabbit wandering around my car porch.
So, I came upon this website, an idea for hanging planter box. The idea given was using steel rods. Steel rods looks more sophisticated. But it is costly as well. So, I used ropes instead. Thicker ones.

The first headache I encountered for this project, I had to find ways how to cut the PVC gutter and its caps into 2. Luckily, my friend who works in the hardware shop and sold me the PVC gutters helped me to cut it. Phew. Then, the gutters (the bigger size one) I got were grey in color. So, I had to paint it white. Here is my version of my Hanging Planter Tray. At one side, I planted my herbs. The other side, I'm planting leafy vegetables :-)
I have gotten several ideas from the Internet, still pending in my head. You can view from the website link below. I totally salute those who can come out with such creative ideas :

I also bought the bright yellow Phua-Chu-Kang boots for my Garden deco. Still thinking of what to plant in it. Erm...
I recently bought a 2nd hand table (made of Chengal wood) that I can put under the sun and rain. Woo Hoo! And also a rattan small rack that I can put under the sun and rain too! Double Woo Hoo! Will upload of the pictures soon.
