SK's Artsy Flypaper Gate.
Artsy Flypaper Gate. What the heck? A friend called my new gate artsy flypaper because I put everything I could find on it. I love old and antique metal and iron pieces. Glass door knobs. etc.
I built the gate from tongue and groove pine. Rounded the top for a little more form and grace. painted it with old black paint then began to attach all this stuff. I had fun. The whole point in my experience.

Old rusted rod iron fence pieces drilled and attached with screws.
I used 2x4" tongue and groove pine to build my gate. I cut the top with a curved top for a little more grace.
I painted it black and sanded it back then poly coat for durability.
At least I know where all my cool junk is.

Very pretty and artsy. Where did you get the metal leaves? I love them.

@Karen Mueller I have saved these for five years. I ordered them from Mexico. When I built the fence these were left over. Google rod iron or wrought iron and you should be able to find something similar. Here is a spot: http://customironworks.com/steel-leaves-c-24_29.html Have fun sk
