History Of Window Flower Boxes

Did you know that the ancient Romans were the first to use window boxes? They made them from clay, and filled their window boxes with plants and herbs needed for food and medicinal uses. Later on, window flower boxes became popular all over Europe, and were brought to the American continent by the first British colonists. Window flower boxes still maintain their appeal today.

The Basics Of Easy Farmhouse Window Flower Boxes DIY

There are some basics to keep in mind before you build your own window flower boxes.

  • A window box that is not as wide as your window looks funny, and one that’s too long doesn’t look right either. It should definitely match the width of your window.
  • The window flower boxes you make need to be about 25% of the height of your window.
  • Window flower boxes need to be at least 8 inches deep to properly support a selection of plants and their root systems.
  • Be sure to drill holes in the bottom for proper drainage.
  • Window boxes need secure attachment to the house. L-shaped brackets are the simplest type of secure installation.
