Greetings all!
This past week I shared a very unexpected project I had no intention of doing! I was doing some outdoor cleaning of random branches when this became a thing…
Chain link fence cover with branches
Easy DIY chain link fence cover using branches!
I was about to load a bunch of branches into my truck bound for the dump, when I got this brainstorm to attach the branches to a bare section of chain link fence… and I am LOVING the results! The branches add a little artsy rustic charm while offering some added privacy as well! And the birds adore it. I cannot wait to see what it looks like when the rest of the garden is in full bloom!
Today I did much of the same… simply tackled cleaning up some garden tools, and ended up revamping a section of my garage. It feels so good to accomplish stuff that needs doing, then it just turns into something special.
We are going to get hit with a week straight of rain this week so that will be a great time to get some indoor projects done next week!
So until there’s more to share, let’s visit these unique features from last week’s party, then get onto the new additions!
Upcycle Project features from last week’s party

Spring faux sprout bulbs with twine
Faux twine sprout bulbs by Homeward Found Decor
Nothing spells spring more so than sprouting bulbs, am I right?! Well, here’s how to get the look using this super gorgeous faux method! I just adore this look teamed up with moss… may have to give it a whirl myself!
Upcycled egg carton bunny portraits by Pillar Box Blue
Would you EVER have imagined an egg carton turning into the most adorable bunny portraits in the land?! Me neither! Yet here they are, inspired by a real bunny spotted outdoors! Oh my gosh. These are so incredibly darling!
Happy accident placemat stencil by Fresh Vintage by Lisa S
If you ever come across flexible cut out placemats at the Dollar Tree, you just may have the most incredible paper stamp or stencil! And that’s exactly how this gift bag got a lovely stamped image of flowers and a butterfly. I would never have thought of this… go see what the placemats look like in this post so you know what to look for!
Faux blossom branch arrangement by Steph Creates Things DIY Home and Crafts
Don’t you wish you could cut spring blossom branches but they would last more than a couple of days? Here’s how to get the realistic blooming spring branches look you can keep out forever if you wish! This is a brilliant and gorgeous idea… and truly looks like the real deal.

Donna, I just LOVE your fence enhancement project! What a wonderful idea – of COURSE the birds love it as much as we all do. You’re brilliant!
