As it says, this glue dries clear making it ideal for this type of shelving that would be composed of acrylic sheets My glue of choice for this project was Gorilla Glue Clear.

Materials needed to Make a Window plant shelf: Note: These acrylic shelves do bow a bit with the weight of the plants, but you can always buy thicker acrylic or can also double up on the thickness of each shelf by gluing two sheets together with Gorilla Glue Clear. I chose to use acrylic for my shelves because it’s lightweight, easy to clean and safer than glass. Note to self: ‘ Siri set a weekly reminder for me to water my plants please.” All I have to do, is remember to add water. Which basically means that these plants will get all the sunshine they will ever need. Well because this is literally shelves – in a window. before you ask me where they’ve all ended up, I’ll just tell you. There was the baking tin herb planter, the IKEA hack shelf,and the ‘others’. I keep making plant related DIY project as if I’m some sort of plant guru.Īs if I can actually keep plants in my house alive longer than 3 weeks (it used to be a week so this is an obvious improvement)
