I don't know, never done this myself, but what about hanging old shoes or tin cans and plant flowers in some or let birds use for birds nests?

i bought bedspring trees at a craft show recently and will giveaway as gifts. The crafter cut the bedsprings from the bed. So you have the individual spiral, she decorated the spirals with Christmas decor: greenery here and there and small red balls. Really any leftovers would do. She cut out a star for the top, made from leather, she also used some material scrapes for stars too. She just hot glued it all on . Simple and fast!
Use it as a partition in an area where you can grow vines on it. Like along a walkway to seclude an area for a sitting space. Lay it length wise if that works best and use metal stakes to keep it upright. Wild sweet peas would be great in a sunny spot. You could tie tall plants, like delphinium or oriental lilies, to it and let them mingle.
