Fences for a midcentury house
So here’s the second fence post. Ha ha, it was fun to write that. Fence blog post. Fence fence post. Get it?
Be sure also to see yesterday’s screens. Thanks again, Laura B. of Portland!

LOL, yep, I got it!
A neighbor’s yard has the basketweave style fence which is starting to deteriorate. I would have liked to have found that style for my yard, but the stockade type we put up still looks MCM.
I have pictures of myself as a toddler in front of a basketweave fence like that! It was our little mid-century gem in Hobbs, NM. (It was only a few years old at the time.) I’d sure like to have a fence like that now.
Gosh! The house I grew up in in southern California had a fence just like the one featured above wrapped around the property. I saw this image and just had to take pause.
The woven fence is sincerely hot!
Ah, basket weave fences.. great for climbing … ala 1975, good times!
