Material list

In outdoor areas, wall decoration is important because it creates a homely and cosy atmosphere on your balcony or terrace. These wooden boxes were decorated with different techniques and materials and then attached as a wall shelf.

Design wooden boxes:

1. Design the boxes with craft colours. We have chosen a particularly natural colour set that can be wonderfully combined with each other.

In our example, we painted the boxes in white, pastel olive and skin colours. However, the boxes can also be left natural.

2. The inside of the wooden boxes can be decorated as desired using stencils and craft paints. Tip: To prevent paint from running behind the stencil and slipping, you can fix the stencil with Fix it Spray.

3. Paint the wooden lettering and the bird house with craft paints.

4. Once the paint has dried, seal all the wooden parts with clear varnish. This will make them more weatherproof.

5. Screw the tags to the backs of the boxes.
6. Attach the wooden boxes to the wall and arrange other decorative elements such as tea lights, dried flower wreath and lanterns in the boxes.

Important: For a long-lasting wall decoration, hang the boxes as protected as possible.
