Upcycled Fence Panel Project Inspiration to Build a More Sustainable World for All 🌍

in #busy6 years ago

We invest our time and energy in respecting and protecting the Earth.



This is what drives us to rescue 350,000 pounds of "trash" resources from the landfill each year.

It's incredible to see what people throw away...millions of tons of perfectly good, perfectly useable material is completely forsaken as "waste" every single day, in complete disregard for the massive amounts of time, energy, and manpower that went into manufacturing goods--not to mention the extraction of natural resources they required, as if our one living planet can renew reserves that took millions of years to create at will!!  



This is one of the many reasons we love a sustainable lifestyle. We are automatically abundant in valuable resources when we look on piles of "garbage" as opportunities to create useful things & honor our Earth! 

We're sharing some sustainable projects to inspire you to shift your perspective on "trash" as well.

Today, we have a few project ideas for repurposing FENCE PANELS: 

1. Floors

LOOK AT THIS INCREDIBLE FLOOR!!! This is one of the many gorgeous floors @everlove LAID BY HAND. It's absolutely epic, and it's made from discarded fence panels. She used trash to create incredible, unique, useful ART! 

When our dance parties started to make the floor bounce, we discovered that we had water damage in the beams holding up our foundation. We took on the great project of fixing it ourselves, and our @everlove graced the experience with her eye for beauty and one of a kind creation. Our amazing floors really deserve an entire post in themselves, as they are a true testament to sustainability, DIY, innovation, and creation. 


2. Raised Beds

We lashed together discarded fence panels, filled it with dirt, planted herbs in it, and voilà: free food & medicine!!! 


3. Frame a Structure

This is the Tinder Tent next to our outdoor kitchen, where we keep firestarter neat and tidy and dry. The idea is that you can grab a handful of kindling from the top barrel and work your way down, and you will end up with the exact right selection of wood to start a fire in our earthen rocket stoves. Fire building is a science and an art, and we make it easy and cute by keeping our Tinder Tent stocked with wood of various sizes. We use fence panels as walls to protect the wood from rain, as it's a lot harder to start a fire with wet wood. 


4. Fuel

We also break down and burn fence panels. They are an ideal fuel for our rocket stoves, as they are a perfect size & shape. We use fence panels that were treated with chemicals or paint for other purposes, because they really stink and make a lot of smoke when burned. 

We use "trash" fuel instead of electricity or natural gas to prepare 40,000 free meals a year--super sustainability winning!!! 


5. Panel Walls

We used discarded fence panels to finish the walls in one of the tiny homes on our property! It adds a charming rustic touch to a sweet little space. Plus, what is more beautiful than giving new life to discarded resources Earth resources??



We hope to inspire you to look at things with new eyes and see the wealth and abundance that already exists around us!
