DIY Trellis for Home GardenView in gallery


All you really need if you want to build a trellis is some lumber and a few screws. If you also want to give it some color you can use wood stain or paint. In any case, let’s check out the tutorial on Gina-michele. The first step involves cutting the lumber into smaller pieces so you can put together the frame and then to form the grid. Line them up on the ground and then secure them together with screws.


Trellis from wooden palletsView in gallery


A small trellis can be easily built out of a wooden pallet. In fact, this one of the many uses you can give to a pallet. First you need to take apart the pallet. Then prep the boards. Remove any screws and sand them. You can also stain or paint them at this point if you want. It could be easier to use a template as suggested on Instructables but you can still get a nice design without one. Arrange the boards to form a pyramid shape and then shape the frame. Then add the last boards and find a good place for your new trellis.

Trellises can look very beautiful if you place them out in the yard or let them lean against the house’s exterior walls. The design featured on Blueroofcabin looks really great. It was designed to match the style of the house and to perfectly fit in that particular space. The metal grid insert helps keep the plants upright and guides them towards the roof. Check out the detailed description and come up with a design of your own.


Combination of trellis and planterView in gallery


An interesting combination is that between a planter and a trellis. To make them both, you need some lumber and screws. The planter part is just a wooden box and the trellis is a simple wooden grid attached to the back of the planter. In a way, it looks a little bit like a sculptural chair. The nice thing about this combo is that you can move the trellis with the plants anywhere you want since they’re contained within the planter. {found on Howtospecialist}.

The chevron trellises featured on Remodelaholic look really chic and to make something similar you’ll need some wood boards, nails, a saw and also some paint or stain if you want to change the color or to seal the trellis. You should make a template and use it as a guide just to make sure you cut the pieces to the correct size. Then when all the pieces are cut and ready, start building the frame. Attach parallel boards to a horizontal one and then add the small pieces to form the chevron pattern. These need to be cut at an angle.

A-frame trellises are really practical for vegetable gardens. You can find a pretty detailed tutorial for one on Vegetablegardener. The materials needed for the project include plywood, wood screws, a saw, a staple gun, wire cutters and wood sealer or varnish. Attach four long boards to a fifth one to form the A frame. Then connect the two boards on each side with a smaller one to make the trellis stable. That’s pretty much the whole project. You can then sand the wood and paint it or seal it.


Tomato trellis from rope and metallic pipesView in gallery


Trellises are pretty useful in vegetable gardens, especially if you want to grow tomatoes. To build a tomato trellis, you can use the design idea offered on Petitefarmstead. Here’s what you’ll need for this particular project: rebar, electrical conduit, conduit elbows, bylon string, cutters and a screwdriver. Of course, you could also use wood for the frame but it would be a bit less durable.

Also great for vegetable gardens, the trellis design featured on Mommadanddaboyz is pretty easy to put together as well as really cheap. If you want the trellis to be exactly like the one in the tutorial, then follow all the dimensions and make sure they match. After you’ve cut all the wood boards to size, it’s time to put them together. Make two triangle frames with boards evenly spaced out. Then put them together and connect them with more cross pieces. The result will be this obelisk trellis which you can then paint and place wherever you want.


Pipes and rope can create trellisView in gallery


A well-organized garden is a very pretty sight and trellis can be really practical to get that look. Once again, we’ll have a look at a trellis built of rebar and electrical conduit. This time the tutorial can be found on Onecreativemommy. Here’s how it all goes. First you pound a length of rebar into the ground and then you bend the pipe at the desired height. Repeat with another piece and at the end tie the mesh to this frame.


Classical garden trellisView in gallery


A classical garden trellis like the one featured on Stephaniewhite can turn out to be the missing piece in your back yard. If you want to build one, you’ll need some wood, glue, clamps and a saw. Basically you need five long pieces of wood and seven small ones. Arrange them in a grid and secure them with glue. Use clamps and some heavy items to press the wood firmly in place and let the glue dry. Then you’re ready to take your new trellis out in the garden.

Let’s also have a look at something a bit more modern. The trellis featured on Moderninmn is made using plug-and-play fittings. It only takes a few minutes to put the whole trellis together and you can make it as big or as small as you want. You can also give it any form or shape you want in order to make it practical for your garden or yard. In any case, the first step is to make the main frame after which you can add the finishing touches.


old doors used like trellisView in gallery


On the other hand, if you prefer something a bit more rustic and with an interesting story, how about a garden trellis made from an old door? In fact, you can repurpose one or two doors to make really pretty trellises. Different types of doors make different trellis designs. So have a look around the house, see which doors could be replaced or what you can find in the garage and get to work. You can find a lot of inspiration regarding designs made from old doors on Dishfunctionaldesigns.

You should also check out Sybilalfano. The cute trellis featured here is not only pretty but also quite versatile. Attach it to a planter and make it sit upright or installed under the ceiling so the plants can grow on it and form a green roof. In any case, the trellis is really cute and it’s made out of an accordion peg rack. a few wooden pens were also added to make the design a bit more interesting. They were then painted along with the peg rack.
