Measure the size of your window frame. Mine was 14in by 7in by 60in.

Cutting the Ropes

Measure your window from top to bottom. My window was 60in long, so I cut 4 pieces of rope 60in long.

Cutting the Board

I made the board a little smaller than the length of the window frame, so I can fit part of it into the frame. So I made my board 13.5in.

Making Holes in the Boards

Make a hole in each corner of the boards. I clamped all of the boards together so then I only needed to make four holes through the boards.

Putting the Rope Through

Put the ropes through all the holes in the three boards. When done putting a rope through a hole, tie a not under the board. This second part is optional because its just for design: when done putting all of the ropes through the holes and tying them, then loop the board through it's rope to get a twisted design.

Putting Hooks on Window Frame

Put the hooks on the top of your window frame. This will hold up the boards and rope.

Putting It All Together

Now just tie the top ropes to the hooks and then put plants on it or what ever you want.
