Step 1 Step one
Using a skilsaw or handsaw, cut a panel of ply measuring 550mm x 850mm.


Step 2 Step two
Using a paint roller, apply one coat of Resene Teal Blue to the outside of the container. Allow to dry, then apply two coats of Resene Lucifer.


Step 3 Step three
Using the hammer and large nail, mark the screw holes for the two washingline hooks (300mm from top edge and, centrally, 100mm apart).


Step 4 Step four
Apply two coats of Resene Nero to the front and sides. Allow to dry, then turn over and paint the reverse.


Step 5 Step five
Attach the ply panel to the fence with 40mm galvanised nails. Touch up the nail heads and any marks with a coat of Resene Nero.


Step 6 Step six
Screw the washing-line hooks into position.


Step 7 Step seven
Using the hammer and large nail, punch a series of drainage holes in the bottom of the stainless steel bucket.


Step 8 Step eight
Using good-quality potting mix, plant the sedum into the stainless steel bucket. Water well and allow to drain, then hang the bucket from the hooks on the ply panel.
