A spot of green moss on the wall


Materials: Hampen carpet

Description: First you have to drill thin boards of wood on your wall. Then you have to glue the carpet on the boards of wood. (I used 12 little carpets - 80 on 80 cm) Use a strong glue. (in combination with tape roll that sticks on the two sides).


Good luck!

    1. Ever heard of silicon? or Super 7? or many other adhesives that would easily hold up a carpet?

  3. I screwed carpet to my walls. The screws were small enough that the shag hid them.
