Create a screen of pallets or branches at low cost yourself
Often, a beautifully landscaped garden behind the home becomes a veritable haven of relaxation in the warm months of the year with a sense of privacy. Even if there is not really a budget worth mentioning, creative ideas can create a decorative screen for less money.
Braid a shield of twigs or use reed mats
Basically, a privacy screen with a natural look can be made relatively easily from the cutting material of certain plants. For example, the long, straight branches of the following plant species are suitable for braiding a privacy fence:
In particular, privacy screens made of willow branches are very popular, as the vertical branches of the soil usually form as by itself roots and made of cut material screen is so over time to a live screen. However, privacy screens made of reeds or dried willow branches are also relatively cheap. However, these must be firmly anchored by appropriate retaining posts so as not to fly away in strong winds.
Absolutely trendy: the privacy of pallets
Recycling is chic and absolutely in the trend of the time, it is therefore also to build a privacy screen from used pallets themselves. Often these can still be used if they already have too many signs of wear and tear for the logistics industry. Make sure, however, that you avoid using any pallets with pollutant residues for the blinds with pallets.If you want to build a high privacy screen from more than one row of pallets one above the other, it is essential to ensure a solid mounting to the corresponding retaining posts. Otherwise it can sometimes lead to serious accidents due to the not inconsiderable weight of the wooden pallets.

If you want to cover the dustbins or compost with a privacy screen, then it should usually go fast. In such a case, they can simply tie a reasonably stable net between two wooden posts or trees and plant beans or fast-growing annual vines.
Tips
A privacy screen made of pallets can also be planted as a "living wall" if small plant containers for herbs or flowers are integrated into the cross struts of the pallets. Due to the exposed climatic conditions on a wall, however, these must be irrigated very regularly, for which an automatic drip system is available.
