House plant hanging ring

This hanging plant ring is designed to "convert" any typical indoor houseplant pot (of a reasonable size) into one that can be hung from a hook, in front of a window, etc. 

Features:

• 3 outer loops, to which you can tie string/cord (I used 3 "bowline knots" and some twine. You could use paracord, printable hooks, metal chains/hooks for hanging plants [see Amazon/hardware store] etc.)

• An inner diameter of about 4.8", enough to hold a 5" pot towards the top for stability.

• Another version has been added sized to support a standard 6" clay pot

• A chamfered interior edge to maximize contact with the pot. This also allows it to be REVERSIBLE in case you need to tighten the fit by a few millimeters.

  • It is intended to place it with the chamfered/beveled edge facing UP typically.

• Design can be scaled up or down to adjust the inner diameter for larger pots

• Minimal filament usage, prints fast

Recommended to print with PETG for heat/sun exposure and some flexibility. I've had bad luck with PETG stringing when crossing supports, so a rectilinear infill as low as 5-10% and a 0.20 layer height worked well.

Updates:

V2 2026-07-09: 

I heard you guys like filletting, so I had to figure out why and how and added that. Should be stronger in the corner joints, though the original design was already plenty strong and I couldn't snap the small rings off even if I tried. (pictures show v1, render is v2)

2026-08-15 new size:

Another version has been uploaded which is scaled to fit a standard 6" clay pot like you'd find at every garden center.

Note: This model is not for commercial sale/use.
