If you missed my first Farmhouse French Friday, you can find Tip 1 HERE.
On Fridays I am offering just one tip on how to add Farmhouse French style to your home.
Today’s tip is chicken wire.
Now I don’t think you need to go crazy with it, using it in every room of the house, but it’s a great thing to add. If you have a cabinet, then you can use the chicken wire instead of glass in the doors.
If you go to the hardware store to find it, you may not find anything that says ‘chicken wire.’ Apparently the politically correct term is ‘poultry netting’. The good news is that it is not expensive, and can easily be cut with wire snips.
I also used chicken wire to make this photo display.
If you want to see all of the posts in this series, you can find them HERE.
Now if you want it delivered straight to your door, you can order it from Amazon (affiliate link).

Wish you would write a post showing us how to install “poultry netting” in the doors of a cabinet/ how to finish off after stapling wire in place.

Anita,
I adore your use of chicken wire within your home decor, dear friend!
I have chicken wire fronts in the small cabinet over the range hood in my Galley Style Kitchen!
After viewing your post with the Chicken Wire Frame for photos, I had “Mr. Ed” make one for our booth.
I was thrilled when it didn’t sell, as it now hangs in the Gallery Hall Of Family!
Thank you for sharing these tips!
Fondly,
Pat
Anita says
Sounds gorgeous Pat!

Hi sorry to hear about your fall , hope you are getting lots of rest. I just had a question about your cabinet with the chicken wire did you put the color on your self and if so what is the color you used? It is beautiful !
Anita says
Thanks Sandra. That color on the shelf is SW Pussywillow.

Am always in mood for some chicken wire. Can get small roll at Hobby Lobby, with coupon quite affordable. Maybe others are too impatient to wait to receive in mail like me and don’t want to pay s&h.
Adds such great feel and look easily. Love your farmhouse tips.
