Believe it or not: An excellent way to keep those pesky creatures out of your garden is to plant another garden.

Cheap Fence Design Idea #6: Sanctuary Fence

We love this garden fence design! Sure it’s huge but the care and thought that went into the bordering fence is exceptional. Wood planks are used when creating the perimeter and are stained in a  golden cedar color.

Cheap Fence Design Idea #7: Pallet Fence

These days pallets can be repurposed into just about anything. From coffee tables to artwork and even fences. This fence idea is a low built fence that was made to protect a modest vegetable patch.

Even the gate was made from repurposed pallets. If the wood is reusable, why not? They work great! You can even paint over them if you’d like or add garden planters.
