The well-known Spanish saying ‘Que sera sera’ means ‘Whatever will be, will be’ and reminds us not to worry about what the future holds, but to face life with confidence. A meaningful gift for someone who could do with a bit of encouragement or who is taking a new step in life.

Corten steel is an exceptionally durable and weather-resistant material. This metal alloy, enriched with copper and other elements, develops a natural patina over time. This rust patina not only gives the steel a warm, earthy colour that blends in with both natural and modern surroundings, but also acts as a protective barrier. This halts further corrosion, making the material ideal for long-term use, both indoors and outdoors.
Outdoors, Corten steel creates a beautiful connection with nature, whilst indoors it adds an industrial look. When using it outdoors, please bear in mind that rainwater running over the Corten steel may carry rust particles. On sensitive surfaces, such as natural stone, this can cause slight discolouration. You can easily prevent this by choosing a suitable location or, if necessary, applying a protective undercoat.
To hang the wall text indoors: Position the text and use a spirit level to check that it is hanging straight. Secure the wall text with nails. This can be done in any closed letter shape. Use steel or brass nails. These match the colour of Corten steel best.
To hang the wall text outdoors: Position the text and use a spirit level to check that it is hanging straight. Mark where you want the fixing points and drill holes in the wall at those points. Insert wall plugs. Screw stainless steel screws or screw-in wall plugs into the plugs. Do not screw the screws or screw-in wall plugs all the way into the wall, leaving a little space to bring the text slightly ‘forward’. A few millimetres is sufficient. This prevents the corten steel from coming into contact with the wall and avoids rust stains on the wall. If the surface allows it, you can also use stainless steel nails outdoors. Do not hammer them all the way into the wall, so that a small gap remains between the wall text and the wall.
