There are tons of fun do-it-yourself projects that require little more than the reclaimed wood from that old fence. Take a look before hauling all of that useful timber off to the dump!

Make a useful wall decoration

With minimal effort, you can turn that old fence into a useful and aesthetic wall decoration! Cut it to size and add some hooks to hang tools, jackets or keys. Paint it to match your home, or leave it au-naturel for that popular rustic look.
