    Hi Robyn, I've seen people use pallets as fencing and it looks really great! After that, depending on what you want it to look like, chicken wire fencing is pretty inexpensive and can be attached to t posts.

    When I purchased my privacy fence that I put up along the road beside my house I was really surprised at how cheep the 8x6 panels were!

      Love it!! How did you get them into the ground and tie to each other?

    We bought panels from Home Depot and put a privacy fence up. It made such a difference. They weren't expensive and have lasted for over 15 years. We actually had a person who worked for a fence company (Quality Fence) suggest we try that. Only about 1/4 of the price the fence company quoted us for the same job!

      Can I ask how much each panel was? And the size.

    Have you see the one with post every 8 feet with a metal cable running through all post (as many as you like). For definition of a yard, use one cable about 6 inches from the top. Looks good

    Have you seen the cattle panel fences? Tractor supply. You frame them out between posts...it’s rather beautiful. I’m going to use it for deck railing.

    I just looked it up. It is really nice looking. Maybe I can use pallets to make the frames.
