Start with the object you want to hang. These makers share the cut shapes for three different ways to support plants. Open a project for the finished photos or preview the design to make one like it.
Hanging plantersby Sam AlaimoA bamboo frame surrounds a small pot and hangs from a cord. Sam’s shared design has geometric frame shapes and slotted circular supports for the pot. Choose a matching frame and support, then fit them to your pot and material thickness.
Window Greenhouse Shelfby John McWhirterSuspended shelves make room for several small plants across a window. John’s final maple layout combines rows of diagonal openings with corner holes for cord. The file also includes plywood versions. It supplies the shelf shapes; add the cord and suitable mounting hardware separately.
Plant hookby Retura ClaarA red painted MDF hook holds a hanging plant pot against a white slatted support. Retura adapted a backpack-hook design for a plant, and shares two workpieces with the hook parts. The file helps you make the hook; add suitable mounting hardware for your support and planted pot.

Fred Housel made the geometric planter frames about 18 mm thick and deepened the grooves in the circular bases so they covered the bottom of the pentagon. His version could stand on the base rather than needing to hang. Changing that groove and base connection made a different way to display the same frame.
