Absolutely lovely! Perhaps a future episode could be focused on DIYers who have small budgets :-)

I can't afford to make this a reality however I got enough inspiration to get my DIY creativity motivated with faux materials. Thinking outside the box and within my budget. Problem solved. Great video.

Beautiful designs. Ideas can be used on a smaller scale for those that couldn't afford the whole enchilada. Just one trellis wall or a couple of strategically places plants can make a big difference. Thank you!

The elevated living wall for the guy that works from home, was one of my favorites!!! All were beautiful still though!!

I love how "calm" and "thoughtful" your video is! It's something that I can just stream while I work on other chores at home--to be inspired and happy.

Terrific video. Thank you! Wonderful to see what a little creativity and thoughtful design can accomplish. There were plenty of ideas a DIYer could tackle and lots of inspiration for bigger projects if the budget warranted. I especially liked how you incorporated art into some of your screens to raise it above the ordinary. Well done!

The white rectangular trellises on the fence and the trellis on top of the arbor by the hot tub were inspiring. I think I can do something similar in my much smaller outdoor space with my much smaller budget. Thank you for sharing!

Nice, but how about ideas that the average person can afford. I can only DREAM of living in some of these gorgeous homes.

😂 poor guy/channel is getting slaughtered for not posting images for more affordable fences, and I want those too, but thank you for putting up a free video that we can at least get some inspiration from.

Would love to see a "how to diy" on creating a privacy wooden screen fence

I have a two-story apartment building looking into a very messy neighbor’s yard. From watching your video, I’m ambivalent between the Italian cypress and the Bamboo in metal trough. At least there’s a more tangible solution now. Many thanks for this wonderful video!!!

[laurabarber]

A before-and-after side by side would really help because all we see is your beautiful solution and not the problem that it actually resolved. Thank you

I didn't expect to literally lmao watching this, but I did, and it was enjoyable to be honest. The constant repetition about the unsightly neighbors, all their unsightliness, and all the unsightly activities we might have to suffer through was super entertaining. OH! Those unsightly neighbors!

Wish I had your ideas years ago! My neighbors kitchen windows look straight into my living room and there is a 3 foot tall (worthless) concrete wall between our properties. Unfortunately, there are a couple magnificent old tea trees I couldn't bear to remove. So I planted a row of pittosporum,
Australian rosemary underneath themto block some of the nuisance. They are just starting to grow tall 4 years later. A fence or screen would have been helpful during those years. However, the property line is covered by the block wall with concrete about 2 feet underground, so it was challenging to build a structure there. Looking forward to seeing more videos about creative solutions from you!

[divawarrior]

Thank you for these ideas! Of course, won't apply to everyone, but very inspiring in helping to come up with a solution! :-)

Kudos for being the first channel (at least in my experience) that eventually replies to each one of the positive and negative comments... And there's tons of both!! 👏

When you start calling their neighbours homes " unsightly ", " ugly ", ' mess ' or whatever, it is unbecoming of you.
But your solutions are absolutely stunning.

If I had a million of two this would be great!

[avecitajusto]

I was surprised to learn that in some places you need a permit to pour cement in your backyard. I was able to find out that in my area the only thing I can work around for privacy DIY was a Pergola and doesn't require a permit. fences can go up to 8 feet .I love the Idea of the Bamboo-in-tin-cans!

[andreaberryman]

That screen you are in front of is EXACTLY what I would love to have. I look out at their weeds and junk. It's my dining room-I don't have to worry about what they look at-it's bedroom with curtains never opened.

I love being in places where feels like I’m in paradise in privacy with a jungle feel and have outdoor exercise equipment and lounges with outdoor fireplace or barbecue
