A fence...

At last , after living with a cobbled together fence for ....seven years . We have a new doggie fence to keep those two out of trouble. And it's been a long running palava . After  Philip sourced a load of sheet metal skeietons from a Portland Iron works. Then  he charmed them into selling us a piece , then charmed them  to offer to cut it in half , weld rebars on  , so it could be stuck in the ground.and cut another piece (they had plenty of it) for a gate. Then it all went ... ummm pear shape.  it's been a long time getting it DONE . But done it is, well except for the gate., which may or may not happen, depending on how pushy or charming I'm willing to be...


It's all cut out interlocking L's , so perfect...

  2. Love it! I have a true soft spot for repurposing sheet metal skeletons. Looks fantastic and I bet it gives you beautiful shadows on the ground too!

  4. SO GOOD. I love it. I especially love that you can keep the pups in/out without obscuring the view into the garden.

  5. Pouring on the charm (tag team fashion with you and Phillip) paid off big time. The gate will surely happen.
