Hi sorry not been on for a while yes i got it from this websiitetakemymoney said:SUPERGIRL2020 said:
Ive just hooked it over now to get a rough ideaBendy_House said:That Mrs Luther for you.As for mounting t'ivy, you need to construct a frame - vertical posts bolted/tie-wrapped/whatevs to the concrete stubs, with horizontal rails ('arris') top and bottom. The ivy will be tied/stapled to this.Just how high do you need to go?
Would you be able to tell me where you got this fake ivy from?
Luckily I don't have problems with my neighbors, but it looks amazing on the picture and I would like to hang some on my wooden fence too. I guess this is an artificial privacy ivy roll but can you also order it in combination with trellis? Does the company selling them offers to assemble it?
Plot twist: I came on this forum to find money saving advice, but requested product info with my first post to spend my $$

I recently discovered the charm of incorporating fake ivy into my home decor, and I'm absolutely delighted with the results! The realistic appearance and low-maintenance nature of fake ivy make it a perfect addition to various spaces. It effortlessly adds a touch of greenery and a natural vibe, creating a refreshing atmosphere without the need for constant care. The versatility of fake ivy also allows for creative placements – whether it's draping it along shelves, accentuating a wall, or even using it to enhance outdoor spaces. It's become my go-to solution for bringing the beauty of nature indoors while keeping things hassle-free. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to effortlessly elevate their space with a touch of green!

I’m so glad I put it up as it gives me so much privacy from my neighbour who clearly doesn't like me even though I try to be a good polite quite neighbour and respect her the best I can but she still gives me bad vibes whenever she sees me 🤷♀️0
