Make the train boxes or compartments by: measure the frame size, draw train compartments or square boxes on the wall that are at least 2 to 4 inches larger than the canvas size, for bigger wall area and print you can adjust accordingly. Make these boxes a little apart from each other and connect them through connecting lines.

3. Fill these boxes on the wall in a color of your choice and do it neatly by surrounding the outer areas of the box with masking tape.
