The main function of the fence is to mark the property boundaries of a property. Whether made of wood or metal, the fence structure can be transformed into an aesthetic element in the garden with a little creativity and skill. Making decorations for the garden fence yourself can be easy. Take a look at our great ideas and let them inspire you.
Create your own fake “gallery” on the fence using just frames in cheerful colors. You can either use old picture frames or put together the rectangular structures yourself from wooden slats. Paint the frames in the colors you want and hang them on the fence in a playful composition.
This idea is perfect for wooden post fences. Paint the tips with different colors and imitate the graphite of a pencil with black. Another option would be to paint the bottom cylindrical portion of each post, a few inches from the top, the same color.
Don't throw away the old wooden furniture - this beautiful decoration can be easily put together from table and chair legs. Cut the wings out of plywood and attach two bolts to one of the ends to serve as eyes. The feelers can be made from metal wire and glued to the head.
You can put together an unusual and eye-catching fence from old doors. Whether you paint the door in bold colors or not is your choice. If you are an admirer of vintage style, then just do not renovate the doors - this way the fence will look mystical and outdated.
Bicycle or car parts in garden design and furnishings are in. Follow the trend and decorate the garden fence with old bicycle frames, bicycle wheels and other parts. With a little bit of craftsmanship you can even install the bicycle wheels in the fence.
Transform the simple metal net into a work of art with the help of colorful fabrics. Weave the fabrics or plastic ribbons around the structure and create beautiful shapes and images. A great, eco-friendly idea would be to tie colorful plastic bags together and use them instead of fabric.
Another interesting idea for a new use of old furniture. You can put together such a cute shelf from an old sofa table. With some old candle holders and flower pots, the decoration for the garden fence gets its perfect look.
Enjoy the funny birdsong with this great garden decoration. All you need are some colorful birdhouses to hang on the fence. Don't forget to leave seeds and food inside for the little birds.
These flowers are easy to make out of cardboard. Decorate your garden fence with as many of these as you like. For a colorful decoration, make flowers in a few colors and attach them to the fence.
Decorate the garden fence with old plates, jugs, serving trays and other dishes made of copper or other metals. With their soft shimmer, they reflect the sunlight and create beautiful lighting effects in the garden.
The summer mood never goes away with this wonderful and simple decoration. Attach some starfish to a string of lights, decorate the garden fence and enjoy the romantic atmosphere on the warm nights. If you want, you can decorate the fairy lights with shells or sea snails.
For an irresistible, truly attractive effect, hang a curtain of lights or lots of fairy lights on the fence. So you have fairytale garden lighting when it gets dark outside.
Mirrors don't just belong in the living room. Hang one or more mirrors in vintage frames on the fence and be surprised that your garden actually looks much larger.
Another interesting idea for decoration for the garden fence would be a mosaic made of mirror pieces. An optical illusion is created for holes in the fence through which the landscape outside the garden can be seen.
Against the background of a simple wooden fence, the mosaics with their colorful particles and complicated shapes always attract attention. A variety of decorative elements with mosaics can be found on the market, or with a little creativity you can even make such elements yourself.
Paint the hubcaps and wheel trims that you no longer use in bright colors and hang them on the garden fence. The shapes in the middle are similar to the flowers and when highlighted with paint, the hubcaps become a great decoration in the garden.
You can create an eye-catching decoration yourself using mechanical parts of this type. Mechanical wheels, bolts, chains - you can use almost anything you can find in the garage. If you long for colorful decorations in the garden, simply paint the pieces in colors that match your preferences.
It's hard to believe that the bricks can actually turn into fun, colorful garden decorations. Paint some bricks with paint and place them next to each other on the garden fence. Don't forget to design the narrow pages like your favorite books as shown in the picture.
Such a nice decoration for the fence can be put together from an old window, some jam jars and artificial flowers. Hang the window frame - if you wish, you can replace the glass with a mirror. Decorate the fence with some vases from the jam jars with colorful flowers and you're done.
