Find the studs in your wall using a stud finder

If you're looking to add some greenery to your home but don't want to drill holes in your walls, a window box is the perfect solution. But before you can hang your window box, you need to find the studs in your wall so that you can secure it properly. Here's how to do it:

First, grab a stud finder and turn it on. Then, hold it against the wall where you want to hang your window box and slowly move it back and forth until the stud finder beeps or lights up, indicating that it has found a stud.

Once you've located a stud, mark its location with a pencil so that you know where to drill your pilot holes. Repeat this process until you've found all of the studs that you need in order to secure your Window box.

Mark the spot on the wall where you want to hang your window box

Before you decide where to turn your window box, take into account the size of the window and the amount of sun exposure it gets.

You'll also want to consider the weight of the window box when full of soil and plants. Once you've decided on the perfect spot, mark it with a pencil so you know where to drill your holes.

Use a level to make sure your marks are level with each other

No matter what type of window box you have, it's important to make sure that your marks are level with each other when you hang them. This will ensure that your window box is hung evenly and looks straight from the outside.

If you're using a level, simply hold it up against the side of the window box and mark where you need to drill your holes.

 Make sure that the level is lined up evenly with the top and bottom of the window box so that your marks are accurate. Once you've made your marks, proceed to drill your holes and hang your window box!

Drill a pilot hole into each mark

If you're looking for a way to hang a window box without drilling, there are a few different options you can try. One is to use command strips, which will hold the weight of the window box without damaging your window or causing any permanent damage.

 Another option is to use suction cups, which also won't damage your window but may not be strong enough to support the weight of the window box.

To drill a pilot hole into each mark, start by measuring and marking where you want your holes to go. Then, drill a hole into each mark using a drill bit that's slightly smaller than your screws.

Be careful not to drill too deeply, as you don't want to crack the glass. Once all your pilot holes are drilled, screw in your screws and then hang your window box!

Screw in the drywall anchors

Now that you have your window box, it's time to install it! The first step is to screw in the drywall anchors. To do this, simply screw the anchors into the wall using a drill. Make sure that the anchors are evenly spaced and level before proceeding to the next step.

Screw in the screws

To screw in the screws, you will need a drill and a screwdriver. Start by drilling a pilot hole in the center of each of the four corners of the window box.

Next, screw in the screws using the screwdriver. Be sure to use screws that are long enough to go through the thickness of the window box and into the wall.

Hang your window box!

If you're looking for a simple, no-drill way to hang a window box, look no further! This method uses only two materials that you likely already have around the house - command strips and wire hangers.

First, gather your supplies. You'll need:

• Command strips
• Wire hangers
• Window boxes (we used these)
• Plants or flowers

Next, attach the command strips to the back of the window box. Make sure they are evenly spaced so that the box will hang level. We used three strips per side.

Now it's time to hang your window box! Using the wire hangers, hook each end onto the corresponding command strip.

The hangers should be tight against the box so that it doesn't swing or move around. If everything looks level, congratulations - you've just hung a window box without drilling a single hole!
