- How to make a planter box / base with an integrated umbrella stand. This build is super simple and has been one of my most favorite simple weekend builds. This replaces the small lightweight bases you might find at the big box stores. High wind support for any umbrella size. Happy Building!
My 10' Outdoor umbrella with LED Lights. Great for nighttime too!

Use pvc pipe. Drill holes just above concrete to allow drainage.
Why do you need holes sorry I don’t know much about this
The pipe will fill with water when it rains and rust your umbrella pole.
all of those metal shavings went into your patio furniture and floor
As a single mom I need to make one for my new Umbrella... I didn't know that you didn't have to mix the concrete, can you explain why you don't have to? Does your area have high wind gusts? I live in Kansas and we do. As of right now my current base with 50 lbs of sand on it doesn't hold up to the Kansas wind. Thanks for your video
There are charts for umbrella stands/bases. It will tell you how much the base should way for whatever size umbrella you have. It's roughly 10 lbs per foot. So a 6 foot umbrella would need 60 pounds, a 7 foot umbrella would need 70lbs. Hope that helps.
How's it working out? Any issues with the planter plastic in '22?
Great idea. You can spray paint the metal post to make it match the planter and umbrella, too. Looks beautiful! Thanks for the idea.
Drainage holes for the dirt?
Such a great idea, another job for my husband 😀
Looks great. I now have a way to recycle broken small cement slab I removed +save dump fee, thanks for the idea/video, subbed.
Prior to putting in the concretee you can add wheels to the bottom for easy repositioning
Thats a great idea. Maybe Version 2 will have wheels
That’s was exactly my thoughts too
just an FYI, portable planter wheel sold in Daiso might be the way to go, you can put under any planter. I guess it also works with this one.
I have thought of wheels butt 1. Would have to be heavy duty wheels to take the weight and 2. Even though the thing is heavy can it be rolled then by a very strong wind?
what type of cement did you use? now days need to buy everything online so details will be helpfull
Quickrete brand, I believe they were 80 lb bags.
What about the wind lifting the umbrella out of the pipe, a bolt through the pipe and umbrella pole works.
yes, this is a great idea. I was planning to put a pushpin on the inside of the umbrella tube and drill a hole in the planter tube to have them lock into place with easy removal. I haven't done this yet.
You need some kind of drainage if you plant anything. Or, plant succulents.
What kind of planter can i use for the cement?
What size pot is that?
Great project. Thanks. Can you tell me dimensions of pot?
This is really nice, I have had an umbrella for 5 years and could not use it because that part of the base is missing, is it really important to have it leveled though?I am a novice and would not want to miss out out on doing this because levelling skills are non existent here.haha
Love you idea, but worried about the metal shavings.
Blowing everywhere. 😮
But i still love how you made a plantern out of it.👍
That was fun to watch! Great job!👍
Where did you put the drainage holes for the plants?
Love it , will be thing this, thank you :)
Awesome Video!!! I'm doing this tomorrow can't wait!!!
thats great. We love being able to take the umbrella out if its windy.
Good job‼️
I did that to make a privacy frame around my outdoor spa x 4. Less cement...more room for gravel and soil...(drainage holes on sides)
Never use Miracle Grow!
This is a brilliant idea. We are seniors and plan to show this video to our grown children and beg for their help in creating one for our little back porch. 🙏
I’d give 10 ‘👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍’ . Preatty neat
Did you have to put drainage for the plants?
Because we did annual plants we didn't worry about it along with it being very dry in the Colorado Climate.
Where did you get the magnetic level? How handy!
Here ya go: Cheap little $5 Level

Such a unique idea and it looks beautiful next to your beautiful patio furniture. Wish I had your imagination, I have to "see" something before I can do it! lol Small projects such as your's here, changes the whole look and atmosphere to an area. You did a fantastic job. Linda from Texas.
Good work. Greetings from Cumbria in the UK
Thanks!
MUCHO MISTERIO PARA CONSTRUIR UN PARAGUAS.
Great advice on the pot expansion and using a piece of wood to help level. Going to use the idea on my project!
Awesome! I hope it turns out great!
So simple and beautiful, thank you! Beautiful home too!!!
Thanks for the idea, I just liked and subscribed.
Hey, how wide is your pot? Good video
You’re smart 🙃
Love it!! Thanks for the idea. I am going to make one for my patio
What stops the umbrella from launching out of the stand?
Ha Ha, Great Question. I ended up drilling a hole through both the base pipe and the umbrella pipe and use a trailer pin to ensure it didn't come out.
@@BryceLane Thank you very much for replying. The trailer pin solution sounds like a great one.
Since I'm not always home when it rains, (which sometimes comes in sideways) I plan on drilling holes in the side of the pot to help with drainage. Would it be possible to add some type of umbrella screw? I've had my umbrella take flight!
Does Home Depot cut conduit to size ? Do you need to drill a hole in the conduit through the umbrella to keep it from flying away?
I asked if they cut the pipe down and they do not. I actually purchased a hack saw and cut my 12' pipe in the parking lot of the home depot int o6' pieces. Yes, drill a hole and put something like a trailer pin in the hole to hold everything down.
Nice Idea! And beautiful!
Thanks! it is nice to be able to move it. Happy DIY-ing
I absolutely love this idea and as a person who loves to be creative, I never thought of this. I was debating on Amazon which heavy duty base to buy, I’m going to do this instead. It looks so good. I currently have cinder blocks on top of the base which just doesn’t look too good🥴. Thank you for this idea.
How does this stand up to wind? Cause of the whole center of gravity thing.
This entire video, in every way was perfectly what I was looking for even though I didn't realize it. Thank you Lane family. XO elle
What was your final size of the pipe? Amazing job!
Very nice to plant flowers. Excellent idea for beautification of umbrella.
Brilliant exactly what I needed looking to save as much money as possible to get our pub garden in the uk ready for life after the pandemic thankyou
I really like your project. I liked it and subscribed. Question: what is the container for the base? Where did you get it? Is it metal, I can’t quite tell? I want to do two of these. Thank you.
Thank you, we picked up the pot at Lowes the summer end of summer 2018. I havent seen them since. I would check lowes or home depot if they have any this big.
@@BryceLane if its plastics costco has them right now for $20
@@candiceboller6791 That's where I got mine! 2 of them for $20 each. They are plastic!
dont have ceement do you think this could work with sand and river rock
I made a few of these for my yard. They're great, but the only drawback is they still tip over in the high winds. The base although heavy has a small diameter and tips easily destroying the umbrella. I'm still looking for a solution.
What if you bolted a flat iron weight to the bottom through the pot? It will expand the diameter of the base and stabilize it. I’d like to make a few of these myself - also wondering if a square pot might be more stable?
Square would help. I made the mistake of stuffing a tall, metal planter with empty water bottles to fill space in the bottom half instead of more potting mix. A good wind took it over. Now I use water filled ice tea bottles, or a big rock in smaller ones.
@@patriot20000 Mine still blows over in a high wind. Try retrieving a large ceremic pot filled with large rocks and the cement weight from the bottom of a pool!
@@parsonsmark omg!
Could you use a pot upside down and saw the bottom out? Use the trivet of a bigger size planter underneath?
This was a great video!
Thanks Charlene!
Looks great dude, Enjoy!
Good job and heipfuk tips
👍🏻
Bravo !
I want to make a similar.
Question though… my umbrella is a “hanging one on the side” which means I have to have pretty heavy foot.
Since the weight is on the side more… how wide does the bottom need to be? The original foot is like 94 x 94 cm and if I do similar to yours the footprint is the smaller.
What do you think?
They recommend at least 50-65 kg of weight. Also I’d really like to have wheels on the bottom.
Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
Make sure you have wheels with breaks, otherwise it’s unstable on windy days.
Could you add coaster on this?
don't trust a tiny torpedo level for something that size
I do agree, but i wasnt very worried about this being perfectly level because it will be moved around and the umbrella I used had adjustments capabilities.
@@BryceLane for sure, does the plastic have any cracks yet?
I have lots of wind I would need to make sure it won’t fly out of the pole. Any ideas??
Great till there's a breeze then over it goes
better give your wife credit lol
Was there a reason why you didn't use the bottom part of the pole that comes with the umbrella versus the conduit pipe?
I'm just guessing it's so the umbrella could be replaced without having to build another stand.
You done a really good job well done really nice
This was so Awsome 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏾
Looks really really nice
Beautiful! Did you build the tabletop yet? Would love to see a tutorial as well :)
I love it! I'm inspired!!
Awesome job
great idea
Smart.
Love it
Bro! I hope y’all are doing well! Great vid!
Thanks brotha, yes man we are doing awesome!
What size pipe did you use?
I am pretty sure this was 2" pipe
Did you mention water drainage from the pot--I may have missed it.
5:24 Epic or Typical?
Will this work for straight men too? Thanks.
