This Homemade Screen Hides Bulky AC Units, Storage Units or Trash Cans in the Yard
Essential items like trash cans or air conditioning aren’t exactly the look you want your yard to be, especially if you’re aiming for a relaxing oasis or well-tended garden. Hide unsightly things in your yard with this simple DIY screen.
Basically, you are building a three-sided wooden box with planks along each side to hide your items. It’s pretty simple, but it looks great. You can adjust the proportions of the fence to suit the space you want to enclose. You can see what it looks like in the photo above, and the link below Apartment Therapy has a complete list of details and step-by-step instructions. When you’re done, you have something that looks so much better than a big rubber maid shed, or better yet, won’t drive your HOA crazy. There is no gate in this design, but you can add one for easy access to whatever you store behind the screen, or you can leave space between the screen and the wall for access.
