Welcome to Creative Friday.
Today I have included a photo of a fence we have built from re-purposed wattle trees. Wattle trees are invader species in South Africa and they are re-used and built into fencing for gardens. We bought three fence sections and Richard fashioned them into a wonderful fence to keep our special chickens from venturing into the back garden. The dogs live in the back yard and unfortunately they don’t feel the same way about our chickens as we do, so we have to keep them separate. We have staggered the two large fences and put the smaller one in the middle as a door on hinges with a latch. I really do love this fence, I am going to grow a granadilla vine over it.
The next photo is of a Gladioli that just blossomed down the side of our driveway, the colour is spectacular and I just had to share it here:)
I am so looking forward to visiting all the links that will be shared here over the next few days.

Thank you for creative Fridays. I always get so many great ideas and recipes!
Another great Friday full of inspiration!! Thank you 😉
The fence and flower are lovely. Thanks for the link up.
Thanks for hosting this, Linda. I made a wrap vest for myself this week.
That fence is beautiful. I must say, the “renos” we did to our chicken coop to ensure that our unfortunately chicken-loving dog is kept away, are not anywhere near as pretty as yours. Now I want pretty!
I love the new header! Thanks for the opportunity to post here.
