With the sales of The Botanical Tower DIY kits now in full swing, we have decided to add yet another option for our customers to create their very own Botanical Tower.
In light of our recent shipments to Scotland, France, and Australia, we have discovered that we do, in fact, have an international audience.
That said, and in an attempt to make Botanical Towers available to everyone everywhere, we are now proudly offering Botanical Tower DIY Blueprints for $7, via a PDF download.
The DIY Blueprint contains all of the information needed to create a genuine Botanical Tower, to include a wood cut list, all cutting and drilling specifications, the recommended hardware, as well as a template that can be cut out and traced to make the decorative Botanical Tower top.
The PDF download is formatted to be printed as a 24" X 36" blueprint, enabling the use of the included template.
Most office supply stores and print shops can quickly and inexpensively print in this format while you wait, with prices here in the USA averaging $5
Another option, if you don't mind doing a bit of taping, is to print the blueprint in a method known as "tiling", which converts the 24" X 36" blueprint to an image consisting of (8) pieces of standard printer paper, or "tiles".
You can do this via many methods, but we suggest giving https://rasterbator.net a try.
Their service is FREE, but they do accept donations.
We are excited about this additional approach to our designs, and we look forward to sharing the journey with you !

Happy St Patrick's Day !
From today forward, we will be shipping our Botanical Tower DIY kits via the United States Postal Service, priority mail.
After years of using UPS, they have suddenly decided to re-classify our shipping tubes as "irregular freight", thus more than doubling the previous shipping costs.
The tubes that we use are our preferred way to ship our kits, as they are strong and require very little packing material.
That said, we would rather compromise our choice of shipment carrier than our business ethic.
In the event you must absolutely have your DIY kit shipped via someone other than USPS, please contact us beforehand to discuss.
Namaste.

We are currently looking for a reliable and quality source of Aromatic Red Cedar as part of our transition to coastal North Carolina.
That said, we have temporarily listed all Botanical Towers as unavailable, but hope to be up and running late 2020.
In the meantime, we are offering the Harmony Botanical Tower DIY kit for those who may be looking for another option.

Over the years, we have had many requests from individuals desiring a more “hands on“ approach to creating their Botanical Tower, and many others simply just wanting to save on overall costs.
That said, we are proud to announce the availability of The Harmony Botanical Tower DIY kit, with other styles to follow in the coming months, as time and development permit.
Included in the kit are our signature cast iron brackets, our Logo coin accent, the decorative top cutting template, hanging hooks, screws, metal lock dowels, glue, and a comprehensive set of instructions to ensure professional results.
The only thing missing is the wood of your choosing, and a basic understanding of woodworking techniques, such as cutting, routing, drilling, and perhaps light sanding.
We are excited about the prospects of this approach, and look forward to watching it's development.
We hope you will decide to join us for the journey !
