That’s another viral DIY décor trend, not something everyone is suddenly doing everywhere.
🪑 What the idea actually is
A person takes:
- plastic spoons
- chicken wire (mesh)
…and weaves the spoons through the wire to create:
- a patio screen
- wall art
- or a light-diffusing panel
It can look surprisingly stylish—kind of like a textured or mosaic effect when sunlight hits it.
🌿 Why people like it
- very cheap materials
- reuses plastic (upcycling trend)
- eye-catching, modern look
- easy to customize (colors, patterns)
⚠️ Reality check
- It’s more of a craft project than a durable outdoor solution
- Plastic spoons can:
- fade in sunlight
- become brittle over time
- Sharp wire edges can be a safety issue
💡 If you want to try it
- Use UV-resistant or thicker plastic if possible
- Paint or spray-coat for better durability
- Sand or cover sharp wire edges
- Mount it securely (wind can be a problem outdoors)
🧠 Bottom line
It’s a creative, low-cost patio decoration idea, not a revolutionary trend—but it’s fun if you enjoy DIY projects.
If you want, I can suggest better long-lasting patio décor ideas with a similar look but more durability 👍
