picket fence in front of adorable home with porch

Look at this sweet cottage home with a picket fence in the front yard. Adds so much warmth! While we often think of picket fences as usually being white, this one is a delight. We thank our friend, Amy, for sharing this photo she took.


picket fence with flowers as entrance to home

Mary and I really like the clean look and colorful flowers of this picket fence floral combination. It makes for a quaint entrance to the front porch.


picket fence used in front of flowering shrubs

A classic picket fence look that separates the home from the street. Even though there is not a lot of room between the sidewalk and front porch, the picket fence and shrubs add its own appeal.

Couldn't pass this one up. Daisies are my favorite flower and work well with a picket fence.

A real charmer for the 4th of July, this picket fence provides a nice front for the shrubs and flowers.

Plant aromatic flowering vines along your fence for not only added appeal but also to perk your sense of smell.

Can't you just picture children walking along the fence while running a stick across the pickets! Classic fence look indeed.

Although not a picket fence, we thought this might be a perfect idea for those looking for a more sophisticated look.





We love Karen's picket fence and picket fence gate that encloses her garden. Starting with a sunny corner of a backyard, Karen, of Kitchen Treaty and friends turn the space into a delightful garden.
