Fresh and springlike

This wardrobe will bring spring-like freshness to your hallway and you can easily build it yourself. Just follow our instructions.

That's what you need for the cloakroom with swallows:

  • Computer + printer + paper
  • MDF board
  • Wooden block of 5 x 6 x 2 cm
  • Sandpaper approx. 180 grit
  • 3 knobs (with thread)
  • white paint
  • dowel
  • 3 double threaded screws
  • Blue acrylic paint
  • scissors
  • pencil
  • jigsaw
  • brush
  • Drill with drill for wood and stone
  • hammer
  • Cordless Screwdriver
  • thin brush

And that's how easy it is:

1. Print out the templates for the swallows, cut them out and transfer them to the MDF board. Saw swallows with the jigsaw. Saw logs in 3 equal pieces.

2. Smooth the edges of the birds with the sandpaper.

3. Paint the birds, the knobs and the wooden blocks white.

4. Mark on the birds and on the wall where drilling is required.

5. Drill one hole at a time through the bird, the block of wood and into the wall.

6. Hammer the dowels into the hole in the wall.

7. Screw the birds to the wall with a wooden block as a spacer, then turn the knob on the protruding side of the screw.

8. Use the thin brush to draw a "clothesline" in blue directly on the wall.

Done is the wardrobe!
