How about wooden planters? 2 ft tall is certainly easy to build...just
lagbolt boards of something moderately rot-resistant to uprights. Paint
if you want. Fancify the joinery if you want.

I made a great planter once from an old redwood picnic table. It lasted
about 5 years before rotting.
I was going to facetiously suggest stacking up old tires
