While fencing in your yard can help with everything from giving you privacy to protecting your pets, there’s a lot more to fences than just practical benefits. A decorative fence can be both useful and beautiful, adding an interesting visual element to your yard.
To Paint or Not to Paint?
If you have a wood privacy fence, you may not need to paint it to keep it in good condition. However, a fresh coat of stain can help it stay in good condition, and a pop of white paint can give you a picket fence-inspired look. Paint isn’t limited to one color, either. Embrace your creativity and enhance your decorative fence with mural painting!
Aluminum Fences
While natural wood is a great choice, it isn’t your only option when it comes to decorative fences. Aluminum is another fantastic, versatile material. Whether you want forbidding, sharp points or more organic shapes featuring gentle arches and leaf motifs, aluminum fences add an interesting visual element without blocking the view beyond your decorative fence.
Accents and Combinations
Of course, contrasting your fence with a panel of another material is a great way to add visual interest to your decorative fence. If you already have your fence just the way you like it and don’t want to add any paint, you can make your decorative fence more interesting with smaller visual elements. Attaching metal art, hanging planters, wreaths, and even mirrors can all decorate your fence and make it much more than a blank wall of fencing material. When it comes to designing and personalizing your decorative fence, your imagination is the only limit!
