Just about every house and apartment has a less-than-attractive wall. Whether it’s an awkwardly-placed wall that is bare because nothing fits right there or an uneven wall that looks shoddily made, fixing these building blunders can cost a lot of money. In an apartment, you might not even have permission to make any permanent changes – no matter how ugly the offending wall.
You do have options. You could try to hide the ugly wall with a large piece of furniture or a large plant stand filled with large plants. Modular living walls are another effective way to change a wall without a huge expense or a lot of work. Living walls made using Woolly Wallys hanging planters are cost-effective (you don’t have to pay a carpenter to build you a set of planters) and flexible enough to fit almost any space. You can install them in your home in about two hours and since Woolly Wallys support full-grown plants, you don’t have to wait to enjoy a lush covering for your ugly wall.
All you need to do is measure your ugly wall and determine how many Woolly Wallys you’ll need to cover the wall. Since Woolly Wallys overlap, you don’t have to worry about getting good coverage. Once you have the right number of Woolly Wallys (you can order them online), use measuring tape and a level to find the center of your ugly wall and place a piece of tape down the center of the wall, vertically. Then, use your measuring tape and level again to mark the spaces horizontally where your Woolly Wallys will go.
Try to space your Woolly Wallys 13″ on center vertically. This will give you the best coverage for your ugly wall. Mark the places where holes will be drilled and use a drill to pre-drill each hole. All this work will ensure that your wall is perfectly centered and designed to cover as much space as possible.
Now, remove all your tap and install the wall anchors which came with your Woolly Wallys. Use screws and washers to hang your Woolly Wallys. Your wall is almost done. Using the best potting soil you can find, fill each Woolly Wally with soil, up to about halfway. Then, take your favorite plants and place them inside your Woolly Wallys.
If you want to hide an ugly wall, look for bushy, full-grown plants that will offer lots of coverage when planted in vertical walls. Once the plants are in, top each Woolly Wally up with soil and water your plants. Your ugly wall is now hidden completely by a lovely living wall. Best of all The Woolly Wallys modular living walls are fully removable, in case you ever want to show off that ugly wall again and since they have water barriers Woolly Wallys will not make your wall any uglier with water stains.
