Hanging a pallet planter on a brick wall [View all]

Hi … I'd like to make a hanging pallet planter that can be mounted on a brick wall outside my house. The plan is to make a small vertical herb garden.

Thanks to youtube, I've learned how to make the pockets for the plants using landscape fabric.

What I don't know how to do is secure the pallet to the brick wall. I'll need a hammer drill with masonry bits for inserting the anchors. But what can I use for attaching the pallet to the wall?

I'm not using a full-sized pallet. I found a smaller one so it won't be too heavy for the wall.

Any advice would be much appreciated!
