Chippendale Window Box

Step-by-Step
1. Choose your materials. Make it with cedar or redwood, so the completed box will stand up to weathering and watering. Using galvanized screws instead of nails also adds to the life of the box.
2. Preserve the window box even longer by inserting a plastic liner or fashioning a liner of sheet metal.
3. Finish. If the box is made entirely of the same wood, you can allow it to weather. Or paint the finished box inside and out with an exterior oil-base primer and exterior latex paint (white or deep forest green would be especially attractive). Paint the metal brackets to match the building.
