In the bedroom are appropriate candlesticks candles - master classes!

Master class: DIY frame for a niche

In a very narrow niche it makes no sense to insertAny cabinet or shelves, they just do not fit there. Also, the options for covering the back wall are narrowed; it should be thin so as not to narrow the shallow niche. Therefore, in this case, paint or wallpaper is used. PHOTO TO (niche before processing :) In this niche, structuredWallpaper, there was only a question how else can it be refined. And the frame is a wonderful way out. Since the door frame and plinth are made in the same style and painted white, the decision to make the same frame for the niche came of itself. AFTER (Niche after processing): Necessary materials:

  • 2 boards 9 cm wide and 114 cm long (for the inner side parts of the frame)
  • 2 boards 9 cm wide and 117 cm long (for the outer sides of the frame)
  • 2 boards 9 cm wide and 97 cm long (for the inner top and bottom of the frame)
  • 2 boards 13 cm wide and 112 cm long (for outer upper and lower parts of the frame)
  • Wood glue
  • Hidden dowels
  • Screws
  • Drill
  • Sandpaper
  • Paint and brush

Here pine boards were used. Dimensions spend on the size of a niche in your apartment.

  • The outer side boards and the inner top and bottom boards must be exactly the size of the niche;
  • inner side boards should be smaller than the size of the niche by the width of the boards so that the folded frame would fit into the niche.

Step by Step Instruction: Step 1: Painting Apply a layer of white paint to the wood, let it dry. Then apply another coat of paint and let it dry too. Step 2: Making the inner frame. Form the frame in the middle of the niche. To do this, attach the boards from the inside of the niche with screws: first side, then top and bottom. Boards must be flush with the wall, do not protrude. Step 3: Making the outer frame To connect the outer boards with the inner frame, we will use hidden fasteners (dowels).

  • First attach the top and bottom boards, then the side.
  • The outer frame should almost completely overlap the inner frame, thus creating a small ledge.
  • Here is the finished frame: Overlap of the upper and lower frame with a ledge close-up: Step 4: Add a decorative element In the middle of a niche you can put, for example, a picture or photos. But here we will decorate it with voluminous wooden initials (initials cut out were purchased from the online store).

    • First you need to paint the tree, for this was used contrasting paint (dark brown) to highlight the background of the frame.
    • Apply two coats of paint and let it dry.

    Drill two holes in the wall and insert two wide wooden dowels approximately 7.5 cm long into it. Now attach decorative initials to the dowel (this can be done with nails or screws). Here's what happens in the end:
