    Home Depot black fencing pipe is perfect for all of this stuff and I think even less expensive than the closet rod used here ... also lots of pieces that attach to the for attaching string lighting to.

    Nice idea & they look great.
    A couple of ideas…
    Concrete will retain water & rust pole so maybe worth drilling out the bottom of the planters & up into the centre of the pole.
    I usually dip the base of poles in isoflex or other rubber sealant for longevity against corrosion.
    Rather than use tape, get your hubby to hold them in place while they dry next time lol

    Why did you use toggle bolts? You glued the top, so did you use them so the screw eye hook woouldnt wiggle? Also, dontou have concerns that it may rust? I really like what you made, but I'm concerned they'll rust out in a couple of years at the least convenient moment.
    Thanks for posting! It was helpful ans inspiring.

    Throughoult my late teens and early twenties, I had worked t several specialty hardwood lumber yards that catered to real craftsmen.
    The most talented were the old timers in their 70's & 80's. and a few young progenies. Very few.
    You are one of those few. It takes either special talent or years of experience. Oh, the stuff you will come up with in your golden years.

    @audioidkid 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Great idea! My wife has been wanting me to do this for a bit. We have a pergola with lights, but she wants them extended from the deck to the patio. A few neighbors tried this, but it's pretty clear they did not use concrete.
    The only addition I can think of would be a drill hole at the top of the concrete to allow for rainwater to migrate. Would probably need some filter fabric for the sand, or eliminate the sand?

    • @jquiznos2283
      @jquiznos2283 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was thinking the same thing. I was considering drilling holes at the bottom then adding stones and sand for weight either all the way to the top or high enough before adding potting soil so it can have plants. Idk. What do you think?

    • @audioidkid
      @audioidkid 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@jquiznos2283 I think the concrete is key to hold the curtain rod in place. multiple holes could be drilled horizontally into the pot, around the pot, at the level of the concrete.

      Could always spray paint them with a primer/sealer like Rustoleum has in clear. Lowes also has the rods with hooks in them for $35 each that has two different mounting base options. A lot cheaper than this 😂 But, I get the idea.. 😊

      I agree, here in FL, those wouldn’t last even one year before rusting through. I have used 1 3/4 inch PVC pipe which I painted to match my patio decor, and it worked great. I’ve now had them for 3 years and they look as good as the day I made them!
