Friday's Fences



When there was no way to ignore the dead tree in the background, I decided to embrace it.  Someone went to a great deal of time to collect, cut and size the small post to form this section of fencing.


Could this style of fencing be classified as twig fencing? Whatever the style, I think it is perfect for a ranch in Texas.

  2. I think the picture is perfect with the dead tree, somehow it adds to the roughness of the fence, I can imagine feeling its texture.

  12. Reminds me of building our walls out of stones we came across on our property in Connecticut--we seemed to "grow" some big ones!! It's interesting to imagine if this was was a tree that came down from a big storm and the owners repurposed it. Happy Friday, XOXO

  13. Dead trees in a field look so naked and vulnerable. This one has a wonderful homemade fence to stand behind.

  16. In this part of the Hill Country, I run across a number of fences in this style, usually part of an entry gate. I don't think I've seen one with a frame though.
