A privacy fence can actually add to the beauty of your landscaping.
A privacy fence carries with it a negative connotation. Most people think of an intimidating wrought-iron fence looming over everything in its path. However, today’s privacy fences are more attractive than ever. They can beautifully complement your hardscaping and landscaping while still offering you the safety and security you need. Here are some simple ways to integrate your privacy fence into your landscaping.
Incorporate Beautiful Vines
Vines are visually beautiful and striking, and an incredibly easy way to help your privacy fence blend into your landscaping. They help to soften the height of your privacy fence and make it seem more welcoming. If you have the ability to, plant vines on both sides of your privacy fence for a very fun integrated look. Make sure that you choose vines that won’t damage your fence, particularly if you have a wooden privacy fence.
Add a Centerpiece
Adding a central feature to your landscaping is a great way to draw your privacy fence into the rest of your yard. Add birdbaths, sundials, garden benches, or other yard ornaments along the length of your privacy fence. If you have space to work with, you can even incorporate a gazebo into your privacy fence itself. This will make your backyard seem even cozier!
Have Fun!
If you aren’t sure what you want to do to incorporate your privacy fence into your landscaping, don’t be afraid to take some pictures and play around! Use software or online tools to drag and drop different yard elements into an actual picture of your yard. You won’t need to wonder what things will look like anymore and you’ll cut down on the amount of time you spend wandering the aisles of your local home improvement store. You can also always ask your local expert at Hercules Fence of DC for their tips!
