Love rustic and vintage decor? Is farm chic your design inspiration? We have the perfect craft tutorials for you. While no one thinks of chicken wire as glamorous, these home hacks show that with a little ingenuity and a few tools, you can create everything from jewelry organizers to holiday decor for just a few dollars.

The thin, flexible material can be molded into just about anything and the hexagonal design adds some interest to cupboards, light fixtures, and gardens. Many of these projects require a staple gun or some glue and just a little creativity, but we’ve supplied links to detailed instructions when they were available.

So head to the hardware store and use these 20 ideas make your home farm fabulous!

1) Rustic flower hanger

With just a foot or two of chicken wire shaped into a cone, you can make the perfect hanging vase for your spring flowers. Add some moss for visual interest and you have the perfect rustic decor.

2) Picture hangers

Have some old frames hanging around or some bad art stored in the attic? You can use a staple gun to affix chicken wire to the back of the frames and create a unique way to display lots of small pictures or mementos that make you smile. And you can paint the frames for added visual interest.

3) Hanging fruit basket

Some heavier gauge wire can be molded into this great hanging basket that will have your friends asking you which high-end home goods store you bought it.

This one is from Etsy, in case you’re not feeling crafty.

4) Add interest to a pendant lamp

Have a plain pendant lamp or lamp shade that could use a cool, new touch. Add an industrial chic vibe by simply wrapping chicken wire around it. You can grab a spool of wire at the hardware store to snugly attach the ends so it won’t slip off.

5) Wall shelf

We love the visual interest chicken wire adds to this beautiful hanging shelf. Just buy tall wire, trim it in a circle, and glue or staple it to the back to show off your collections of glassware, spices, teas, etc. This one’s a fave!

6) Tree topper

Like a rustic Christmas vibe? This star tree topper is made of sticks, twine, and chicken wire and will make a great statement piece for the top of your tree that can’t be found in any store. This one comes with a little more instruction, if you need it.

7) Wire cloche

It takes some work to shape it properly, but a few dollars and some practice will keep your candles and flowers safe from reaching hands and paws while adding the perfect piece of decor.

8) Card display

We’re loving this one for holidays and birthdays. It’s a great way to display cards and remind yourself that you’re not only crafty, but surrounded by good friends and family who took the time to wish you the best.

9) Magazine rack

Store your magazines the DIY way. This rack is simple to shape and a few wall anchors will keep it in place in whatever room you need it (which we all know is the bathroom).

10) Wire trees

The winter holidays are a great time to show off your craft skills and these chicken wire trees can be spray painted, dressed up with ribbons, or wrapped with lights to show off your holiday spirit.

11) Light balls

It seems that what were once Christmas lights are now a year-round decor element. We’re loving these round balls of chicken wire stuffed with string and fairy lights, even if they do beg to be rolled around the yard.

12) Holiday banner

So cute and easy, this holiday banner just requires you to snip chicken wire in small triangles and string it between two anchors. It can be however long you’d like and spell out any season. And if you have enough letters, you can spell out “make it stop snowing” when March rolls around!

13) Earring holder

If you have a lot of earrings, you’re already feeling the desire to run out and make one of these. Yet another easy snip and glue (or staple) project, and you can now hang all your dangly earrings in one place. The best part is that they’re easy to remove too.

14) Alliums that never die

We always marvel at the big purple, bulbous flowers that bloom in late spring. Some alliums grow up to 5 feet high! If you don’t have a green thumb, you can make your own with some with spray painted chicken wire attached to a rod. Bonus points for not having to worry about bees or watch them droop at the end of the season!

15) Vertical garden

Ok, so you might need a bit of a green thumb for this one. If you’re lacking space but love to garden, this vertical display is perfect for you. Once you secure the chicken wire to the top of the frame, you can have it hang down like a curtain and attach small pots.

16) Chicken wire cabinet doors

You can either attache this to the glass or replace it altogether with chicken wire for this farmhouse chic look. The final theme is all about what you store behind it – some beautiful glassware can make for a more modern look.

17) Outdoor party display

Perfect for a birthday party or other outdoor events, this folding display lets you hang decorations and photos and move it throughout the yard to create the perfect centerpiece or backdrop for selfies.

18) Spooky outdoor decor

Are you the neighbor who likes to subtly freak people out around Halloween? These chicken wire ghosts make people do a double take – or keep them from coming near your house entirely!

19) Chicken wire chicken

Feeling ambitious and silly? Mold your chicken wire into an actual chicken. It makes a great decoration either outside or inside.

20) Chicken wire for chicken amusement

This one goes out to our fowl friends, the reason we even have chicken wire to play with. If you keep chickens, why not let them have some fun while they roam on the range? Create a tunnel out of chicken wire so they can traverse their domain in style. It’s no hyperloop, but it might give them some added amusement as they go about their day. That is, if chickens can be amused.
