A WOMAN has revealed that she was fed up with her noisy chain link fence, so she decided to build a wooden privacy fence instead.
On a budget, the DIY fan got to work and built her own fence for £688.
Olivia, who posts on TikTok under the username @olivia.de.vin, took to the video sharing platform to document the process of her fence build.
But everyone was left saying the same thing after seeing the finished look.
The DIY whizz shared her clip with the caption ‘Converting our chain link fence into a wooden privacy fence!’ and said: “When we bought the house, there was a 4ft chain link fence here and with our dogs and their dog next door, it just got to be a little bit less than peaceful outside.
“So we decided to build the 6ft privacy fence.”

“I'm so excited to hang out in the backyard all summer long.”
Olivia later added: “This cost us about $900 [£688] in materials for 90 feet.”
