In this video, I\u2019ll show you how I transformed a front yard by building a stylish and functional garbage can concealment using cedar fence pickets. This project not only hides unsightly trash bins but also adds a touch of natural beauty to the space. <\/p>\n<p>Why Build a Garbage Can Concealment?<\/p>\n<p>Tired of looking at those ugly garbage cans cluttering your yard? This easy-to-build concealment structure is the perfect solution. It\u2019s durable, weather-resistant, and blends seamlessly with your outdoor decor.<\/p>\n<p>Materials Needed: total cost $172<\/p>\n<p> \u2022 Cedar fence pickets<br \/>\nT-posts<br \/>\nT-post brackets https:\/\/amzn.to\/3FeFXLv<br \/>\n \u2022 Pressure-treated 2x4s (for the frame)<br \/>\n \u2022 Screws and nails<br \/>\n \u2022 Measuring tape, saw, drill, and level<br \/>\n \u2022 Wood stain or sealant (optional, for weather protection)<\/p>\n<p>Step-by-Step Process:<\/p>\n<p> 1. Planning &#038; Measurement: I started by measuring the area where the garbage cans would be stored and sketched a simple rectangular frame design.<\/p>\n<p> 2. Building the Frame: Using pressure-treated 2x4s, I constructed a sturdy base and side supports. I ensured everything was level and square.<\/p>\n<p> 3. Attaching the Cedar Pickets: I cut the cedar fence pickets to size and attached them to the frame with nails, leaving small gaps for ventilation.<\/p>\n<p> 4. Finishing Touches: I applied boiled linseed oil to protect the cedar from the elements.<\/p>\n<p> 5. Installation: I placed the structure around the garbage cans and secured it to the ground with t-post.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe for more DIY home improvement ideas, and hit the bell icon so you don\u2019t miss my next video.
