I have a customer who saw this on line (http://littlegardenia.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/littlevega1.png).
338619I don't have much information besides the picture. This one is very small - only about 2 feet long and a foot high with small planters. My customer is looking for a scaled up version for the side of their stucco garage wall which faces the patio. We're talking about 7' x 4'. She want's nice looking wood so no pressure treated. I'm looking at using Sapele or Cedar. I'm also thinking of mounting a larger backer board (3/4 ply?) to the garage wall bolted into studs through the stucco. Then I can glue or nail the individual backboards to this board. Final step would be to attach mitered frame to the whole thing. I'd make the flower boxes in the shop of the same wood as the background and frame. Thoughts on the general plan? Type of wood? Nail, screw or glue to the backer board?

Thanks guys!
Scott
