1Cut all the pieces to length. Sand the ends and edges. Position the top,

bottom and side struts face down, in position on a � at surface.

2Glue the ends and screw the corner brackets in place to create the

exterior of the frame. Mark the centre of the sides and glue and slot in the centre divider. Clamp. Mark the placement for the small dividers, glue the ends and slide into position. Clamp. Allow the frame to dry.

3 Sand well and undercoat with Resene Quick Dry Primer. For the distressing

effect, top coat with two or three colours. I used White, Half Gunsmoke and Ciderhouse. Allow to dry then with � ne sandpaper scuff back areas on the frame where they might naturally show wear, at the corners and edges.

4 Mark and drill and screw in the ceiling hooks. To hang, cut and

bend the aluminium strip into a suitable bracket, drill screw holes and attach to the wall. Insert the herb or plant pots into the buckets and hang in a gorgeous arrangement! ✤
