Adding fence building to my resume. Comment TWIGS Adding fence building to my resume.

Comment TWIGS for all the details on this DIY twig privacy fence.

I wanted to hide our work equipment without losing the natural look of the woods. So I collected fallen branches and started stacking.

This project took 20 hours, stretches 50 feet long and stands 4 feet high—but the part I didn’t expect was how therapeutic it would be.

Something practical turned into a beautiful backdrop that feels like it’s always belonged here. And seeing the deer walk alongside it makes me love it even more.

Would you try this in your yard?

I bought it because I loved it. Then it sold for $ I bought it because I loved it. Then it sold for $1,650.

Lately, I’ve been drawn to pottery—the organic shapes, muted colors, and handcrafted details. So when I spotted this platter at Goodwill for $7.99, I happily brought it home.

Once home, I noticed a signature on the bottom. A little research led me to McCarty pottery, and what started as something pretty for my house turned into one of my best thrift finds ever.

Yes, $1,650 was the actual selling price.

Your reminder to turn things over, look for signatures, and research those marks.

Comment THRIFT for the link to my thrifting ebook, where I share what I look for when shopping secondhand.

Would you have picked this one up?

Save this for your next thrift trip—and don’t pass up the shiny brass!
