Summary: Window boxes are a delightful accent to the exterior of a home. Copper window boxes are very popular and fiberglass ones are maintenance-free. If you purchase the right kind of window box, you do not need to install special flashing around or under the window sill.

I would like to intstall window boxes outside my front window without drilling holes in the house. Is there something I can attach to the outside window sill that can hold approx. 30 lbs?
