Here is a front entry fence we have been working on since last Spring. A little lumber, a lot of sticks and sisal. It's taking some time because we are also ringing the veggie garden with sticks (and we're only there part time). The posts are not capped yet but I'm thinking assorted homemade birdhouses. We want that Southern yard art thing going. I was going to do a bottle tree, but we already have folks leaving those little pamphlets on the gate. IMO they'd be doing double time up the driveway if we lined the fences with bottles!

Last year we had cardinal vines covering the main entry and tall zinnias flanking the sides. It has been extended with a climbing rose for the arbor part, wild roses to the sides (they were there) and raised beds with found river rock.
