My graveyard fence for this year was easy to make and free. A local classifieds site had a listing for free wood pallets from a company down the street from where I work, so I picked them up after work one day. It is super easy to make. Here’s how I did it.

I first laid the pallets out and marked the first in each row at 30 inches.

I then attacked each row with the saw making sure to make the ends random and jagged.

I used some of the scap pieces of wood as stakes to prop the "fence" in place.

An over-exposed shot to show some of my test lighting. The fence throws some great shadows all around the yard and sidewalk.

I’m happy with how this year’s fence turned out. I plan on getting rid of these after Halloween, so I don’t have to store them. They were easy enough to make that I could do the same thing for next year, but I have BIG plans for my fence for next year. Stay tuned. :)
