My husband's initial plan was to put fence just around the back porch but I thought that it would be easier and less expensive if we include the concrete side of our backyard since we would need less material. The challenge he had was that he didn't know how to put a fence post on a concrete. I told him that we will figure it out and he did.
By having a picket fence attached to the side of the garage, we can let our dogs without worry that they would ran out and wander around the neighborhood. I mean it is easier to let them out and I am glad that he agreed with me because our backyard looks a lot bigger for the kids and fur babies to run around to.He used his special tool to make specific cuts for the posts.
The picket fence comes in a kits also so we put it together when it arrived.
We used a metal post holder for the posts. His buddy at work lent him a drill for the screw. He tried doing it manually but it was taking so long to make the hole so I am grateful that his friend lend us his tools.
Our fence project took us a long time to finish but I am really satisfied how it turned out. Our neighbors are complimenting us for doing it by ourselves and we even had a guy who was visiting our neighbor's house came and asked us where we got the fencing that we had, he said it looks beautiful. I told my husband that we should do this for a living lol. It was fun doing it with my husband and our kids helped us a lot too.

Your fence looks fabulous! My husband and I may not always find pleasure in conquering around the house tasks, but we certainly feel accomplished once everything is complete.
The fence looks great! We put one up recently and it was the best decision ever. It's so much easier to let the dogs out!
You both did an awesome job! It's so beautiful and it's more special because you made it.
Wow, the fence looks great! Fencing part of my yard is definitely something that I want to do one day!
Super cute, it turned out awesome! My husband built our fence in our backyard and saved us a ton of money!
What an easy way to get your picket fence up. I need to have more fences here, I love them. I think they add a special appearance to your home where it just looks more "homey"!
I think this looks really nice! The hard work paid off. It's really cool that you were able to do this yourselves.
You guys did a great job. I've always loved a fenced in yard. It looks more appealing.
Congrats on completing the project yourself. It looks great and there's some joy in knowing you did the job yourself and some pride in seeing your completed work.
This fence is absolutely darling! I think I need one around my garden next year. Just so cute!
Wise move! You dogs can now spend some time outside and you know they'll stay within your property. The picket fence looks lovely. I love the color!
These Fence looks so great and stylish in house and it's easy to do. I think I need some upgrading in my garden. Will check this out.
You guys did a great job! If I tried to do this I don't think it would turn out this good!
We have a picket fence similar yours that blocks off our garden from our yard. I don't think my husband installed it correctly because it is coming apart at places. I need to show him this post when he repairs it when the weather cools a bit in Texas.
I am in love with fences. My dream house is to have some kind of this fence too. I will fill it with many plants as well to make it more beautiful and refreshing to the eyes.
THat looks so good. I've always wanted to have a little cottage with a picket fence but this would be just as good.
