How can I repupose old metal fence panels?
I am taking down my dog run that is made out of farm fence panels. I would like to come up with a way to repurpose them if I can.

Secured vertically,and securely, they could be a privacy screen and/or wind break. Plant some climbing flowers, or just hook on flower baskets, small planters for herbs, etc.
You can adapt over the door (yard sale?) holders or even those cup holders that you hang over chair arms for small pots.
I have a friend we had the same situation. She placed the panels on a zigzag arrangement. For stability she wired the sections together then drove rebar into the ground at the intersections and wired the panels to it. She painted it with a brown primer so it wasn’t conspicuous. She used it as a trellis for tomatoes and beans and planted flowers and herbs in front of it.
I bet you could spray paint them and add decorative 'tops' to make neat markers for your yard. You could add hooks and hang chimes as well. Good luck!
Thanks for the ideas!
