I made a DIY privacy fence on a budget – I used Amazon bargains, it's so much easier than replacing my old one | The Sun

AFTER growing sick of her garden fence, one influencer decided to elevate its look using Amazon items.

The content creator showed her followers a before and after shot of her DIY garden transformation.

In her video, TikTok user Janica Lee (@janicalee22) explained: "I wanted to create a little bit more privacy.

"I have this janky fence that’s falling apart but replacing my entire fence was going to be a fortune so we’re doing this on a budget," she told viewers.

The TikToker began by raking leaves out of her way and leveling the ground where she was placing the fence.

"I put some dirt down and my solution was to hammer in some rebar and then put a piece of PVC over that as the post for my lattice panels," Janica said.

The influencer showed her followers the white lattice panels she purchased for her garden.

She continued: "I found this galvanized tub, you can make it into different shapes, on Amazon. I thought it would be perfect for my flowers and so I just made sure that it was all level on the ground."

Before she began to work on her fence, Janica placed a weed barrier down to protect her flower bed.

The content creator then sawed down her lattice panels to make them six feet tall.

She explained: "The first one was actually the hardest to get up. I attached these with zip ties but the thing just kept wanting to flop over the fence."

After 10 minutes, Janica was finally able to move on to the second panel.

"The second one was a lot easier but there’s this weird tree trunk in the way. So I had to measure and then I had to cut some space out of it," the TikToker said.

After securing the paneling to the fence and PVC piping with zip ties,Janica completed her flower bed.

She leveled her $33 galvanized steel raised flower bed and then planted her clematis.

"I’m so looking forward to watching these grow up on this lattice, they’ve been sitting on my deck forever and I just love the way this turned out," Janica said.

She concluded: "It creates a little privacy and gives me some beautiful color."

TikTok users took to the comments section to share their thoughts on the transformation.

"I’m also looking for options, fencing is expensive! This is a great idea for a small area," wrote one viewer.
