Egg Box Wall Decoration

An egg box is an excellent material for design. One can make a lamp, clocks, vase, or decorate a wall with it.

For a wall decor, of 2 meters height, you need

- seven egg boxes

- PVA glue

- acrylic paint of three colours

- and acrylic adhesive aerosol

Slightly wet one box. It is advisable to use spray. Then, place it on a flat surface properly, press with hands so that it became flat. You can put packing under press, pre-wrap with a newspaper to absorb water excess.

The wall surface is prepared for decoration, clear it and prime. I covered it with paper.

To continue the work, see that the box is a little wet. Cut it according to the size of the wall.

Abundantly apply glue on the surface of the box and the wall.

Glue the fragments on the wall. You need not follow the pattern of the squares. Press the decoration firmly. If it comes off at the edges, glue it with a sealant.

When the glue dries out, the surface becomes solid. Cover the wall with white paint or primer.

Then, paint the selected colour.

That would give the wall a zest, tone it with a silver paint. Take a little paint on a dry brush, slightly touching the surface, apply on the wall so that paint was left only on the high areas. To fix the result, cover the decoration with acrylic paint.

The wall turned to be very original, and no one would know which material was used.
