$\"\"$ <\/a> <\/p>\n

This chicken wire fence causes me much distress. It\u2019s unsightly and ruins the view out the kitchen window. I\u2019ve thought about tearing it down and putting up a privacy fence but truth be told, as terrifying as Mirkwood is at night it is exceedingly lovely in the day. Haunted forests have an enchanted, almost beckoning effect. I\u2019ve been told their charm is how would be victims are lured in. <\/p>\n

In the spring Mirkwood is bright new growth green. In the summer it\u2019s a shaded respite where birds take shelter. In the fall it\u2019s a glorious display of Autumn\u2019s finery. Even in the winter, the bare trees sparkle with frost. I cannot bare to destroy this natural wonder by hiding it away behind a blah looking privacy fence. But the chicken wire. Ugh. <\/p>\n

So my newest project around the house will be to shabby chic up the chicken wire fence. Or at least make it a more functional feature of the yard. Because standing at less than 3 feet high, it\u2019s not really protecting me from the zombies and Orcs that surely reside in Mirkwood. Even still, it gives my mind small comfort to know some barrier exists between civilization and untamed wilderness. <\/p>\n

So here\u2019s the plan\u2026 a hanging vertical garden. Something like this. <\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a><\/p>\n

And yes, I\u2019ve considered that planting a food source so close to the entrance of Mirkwood could possibly lure out hungry demons\u2026 but then I remembered, silly me, demons eat souls, monsters eat flesh, and zombies eat brains. I don\u2019t think Orcs are herbivores either. <\/p>\n

So with that crisis averted, what do you think? <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
