DIY Outdoor Wall Accents

Sugar and Cloth Makes the Most of Wooden Handrails

The blogger of Sugar and Cloth took part in the Home Depot Style Challenge series to come up with these cute wall accents for the outdoors. The best part is that people can do this themselves at home, and you don't even need that much space.

To put the entire thing together, you will need an unfinished wooden handrail, potted plants, hooks and a drill for putting everything together. In essence, all you have to do is put in the hooks and hang the potted plants on random sections of the railing system. In the end, users will have a cute area to hang plants and also decorate their backyards with a little bit of DIY style.
