Abstract

An enclosure (18) comprises a base (20) and a wall assembly (24). The wall assembly (24) includes a first wall (26A) that is selectively movable from a disassembled configuration to an assembled configuration. The first wall (26A) is disconnected from the base (20) when in the unassembled configuration, and is coupled to the base (20) when in the assembled configuration so that the first wall (26A) is in a substantially upright configuration. Additionally, the first wall (26A) has (i) a first substrate (30) including a plurality of first substrate edges, and (ii) a plurality of first ornamental features (32) that are individually affixed to the first substrate (30) while the first wall (26A) is in the disassembled configuration. Further, at least one of the first ornamental features (32) is positioned substantially adjacent to two of the first substrate edges while the first wall (26A) is in the disassembled configuration.
