Look! Two Awesome Recycled Fences

fencefront91908.jpgHere in Carrboro, NC, we have lots of creative and artistic folks around that aren't afraid to experiment with alternative building products. Check out these two unique fences.

 
 

I'm currently investigating green options for a fence but they are hard to come by. I check Freecycle for decks that are to be demoed, have considered using pallets, and the cost of Trex/synthetic lumber is seemingly cost prohibitive.

The owner of this great fence wasn't home but I'm guessing the panels are all recycled. Regardless, it's a beautiful and creative fence.fencefront2.91908.jpg

This fence lives at a local cafe/garden/hangout called Johnny's.

I'm in love with the metal-panel privacy fence... Why didn't I see this before we got ours all the way built? ugh.

The problem with such a beautiful privacy fence is that other people want to have the same thing and then use new materials to recreate something recycled! Arrgh...
