New ideas of picket fence

Category: GARDEN ROOMS | Posted: Sat Apr 28, 2007 3:28 am

Yesterday we bought two sections of picket fence off a lady we met at a barn sale. Today we played around with some ideas to do with more picket fence.So i took some pics of what it could look like,by propping it up.The arbor of course would be painted white to match. We would have to buy new picket fence though . I priced some at lowes,they have it for like $22.00 for 8 foot long sections.
Here is my pics of what it might look like with fence propped.

Now we would go from the start of the boxwoods , to down where the yellow peace rose is at the end of the driveway.
Here are some other pics.
The azeala's planted,but before we mulched them.

My hydrangea tree.Thought i lost it to the frost,but its coming out again.

Our new rain gauge.

I think it looks good, but I really like the arbor natural.

Cajun,i know what you mean as far as the natural color looking nice,but Ron thinks it needs to match,he's even thinking now that we should go back to my original idea of painting potting shed white with green trim.
Time will tell.

I love your rain gauge Kat! Mine was left out this winter (oops!) and now it leaks. I've been looking for a new one but haven't found anything I like yet.
I really like your arbor natural too.

I think the fence would look good Kat. Glad to see your hydrangea coming back to life.

Netty,i bought the gauge at walmart for like $7.00.The natural arbor may win,if i keep hearing that its better natural.I know painting it will be a pain,with the roses!

Thank you Stew. Im really glad to that the hydrangea tree made it , i see how pretty they look at the nursery where i got it earlier this spring.It would have been sad to have lost it.
