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!
