Reed Fence

There's lots going on inside grandma's house, but we're not totally neglecting the exterior. We're blessed w/ glorious chain link fence along the perimeter of the backyard. When we moved in, it was topped off with barbed wire (squirrels beware)! We yanked the barbed wire immediately, but the chain link remains. We kicked around the idea of using the existing posts and building a wooden fence using these brackets; another thought was to go with a reed fence over the chain link. Only issue with the reed was getting it at a good price: the local nursery was pricey, and it was never in stock; an online purchase meant hefty shipping charges.


And then one day we lucked out: reed fence came in at the local big box home improvement shop. On to the pics:
