Check out how we built a DIY three-tiered rolling plant stand to hold all of our small potted plants on the porch. This is a great project for smaller potted plants that can be moved easily and looks great! Use it indoors or out to keep potted plants together or use for propagation.

If using outdoors, ensure you use an outdoor sealant to protect it from weather and water from watering the plants. If using indoors, add whatever stain you'd like, but ensure you add a protective coating to protect the piece from absorbing water.
Attach casters to the underside of the Bottom Shelf for rolling.
