Instructions:

Step 1:

Measure the measurement of your window using meter tape. Once done, make the exact size of your window using the tape on your floor.

Step 2:

Start gluing the sticks on one corner. There’s no particular pattern. Make sure that it’s filled all over the space and that some are on the tape. Glue the sticks on top of each other using hot glue. Check it from time to time by lifting it as you don’t want it to stick on the floor. Let it dry completely.

Step 3:

Use a driller to slowly drill holes in the craft sticks before putting the screws so they won’t crack. Use wood glue for the other pieces of craft sticks.

Step 4:

Drill a mending plate on all four sides to hold the frame together, then attach corner braces for better stability.

Step 5:

Place it carefully outside your house or in your working space with newspapers on the floor and spray paint it with gold.

Step 6:

Attach gold hinges to the abstract art. Put a frame on your window then attach the art through the hinges.
