It needed a little more detail so i decided to fix that and added some additional smaller molding to the inside of each square.

If your plastered walls aren t perfectly flat don t worry you can apply thin 6mm mdf on the wall before attaching the panels to give a perfect finish.
You can use this as a trellis to grow vining plants or flowers or just use it as a decorative accent inside or outside your home.

As the panels are square rather than rectangular they can be turned through 90 degrees and used horizontally as well as vertically giving an even greater choice of finished heights.
Im a very visual person so for the next step just to make sure i was happy i drew all of this out on the wall.
Mark it all out on the wall.
