Wall-Mounted Rod for Hanging Baskets

In a past article, this gardener discussed a simple, yet functional, wall-mounted homemade bracket for garden hanging baskets. However, as more cascading garden plants were grown, more plants in hanging garden pots were needed to be displayed. Numerous individual garden support brackets weren't practical nor space efficient. An overhead garden rod for hanging garden pots would prove to be a viable solution for hanging baskets lined up in a row.

This article discusses a homemade gardening project where 2 overhead rods may be suspended by support brackets. Unlike the garden DIY project in the past article, no screw hooks and nuts will be used. Instead, rebars or reinforcing bars will be used as the garden rods. The two rods could accommodate the small hanging 8-inch baskets lined up in two rows.

Homemade Hanging Basket Bracket - DIY

Whether you have a store-bought hanging basket or one that is homemade or DIY, you'd have to hang it somewhere. Ceiling hooks, hanging basket brackets and basket trees are just among those that serve this purpose.

Ceiling hooks that can be found in hardware stores are relatively inexpensive and easy to install. Hanging basket brackets, installed on walls, are more expensive. Most are made of welded metal rods or bars and some even have decorative elements.

If budget is tight and you're looking for a no-frills yet practical and functional hanging basket bracket, then here's a simple DIY project that you can do. This hanging basket bracket is assembled with simple houseware and hardware items.
