Unusual Ideas for Gates

We may or may not put up a front gate and fence at the end of the yard. We are however, looking seriously at putting on some walkways and decorative fence sections on the portion of the property we hope to devote to yurts or other types of rental cottages.

It would be nice if each place had a little entry gate, so I’ve been on the look out for unusual ideas. A wagon wheel is one suggestion I found while looking for ideas to use them recently. Here are some others: an old door, metal head and foot sections from old beds, iron crib sides, old signs. Branches attached to a framework, a sliding barn door, a bent twig or vine gate, custom sheet metal, corrugated steel . . . getting some inspiration? Let us know if you have any pictures and ideas so we can post for everyone to enjoy.
