What you need

For this DIY we bought some table legs at the thrift store and used an old pallet for the tabletop. Explore thirftstores, visit the hardware store, or check out your (or your family's) garage and start creating!

  • Talens Art Creation Indoor & Outdoor 
  • Brushes
  • Table legs
  • Old pallet
  • Tools
  • Sandpaper 

Step 1

Measure, cut, and screw the table together

Measure how big you want the top to be and cut the pallet planks to the desired size. Then, use some screws to put the table together. Make sure everything is stable and secure.

Step 2

Sand and paint the table

Sand the table legs and the top to make the surface smooth. Then, paint the top and legs in the desired colors using Indoor & Outdoor paint. Let everything dry for 30 minutes. 

Step 3

Assemble the table

Now that your whole table is painted and ready, you can attach the legs to the tabletop. Make sure the table does not wobble.

Step 4

Have fun gardening!

Your potting table is now finished! If there is any wood left, you can also make a mini garden!
