Plant Tall Plants
This next one could be a bit more time-consuming, but it could be your new way of covering up that pesky fence. Planting plants that grow upwards right in front of your fence so that they gradually grow to cover the fence.

Another option for covering up your vinyl fence is mounting shelves onto the fence and placing decorations on them. This is a little bit more work than some of the other options on the list, however it may be worth it to spruce up your garden.
What you choose to put on your shelves is entirely up to you. You could put little garden statues on them. These statues could be anything, from birds to gnomes to squirrels. You could also place some gardening tools or even gloves, much like what was suggested for the hooks.

Paint
This is a more radical option and is more of a transformation of the fence rather than decorating it. If you want to change up the look of your fencing, try painting it a new color. You could use spray paint or acrylic paint and create a whole new look for your fencing by painting it a new color.
This is a bit of a project, as you will need someone willing to paint your fence. Another thing to note is that the paint may fade over time, especially if the fence is facing the sun. But, if you end up not liking the paint, you could always paint it white again or get a paint remover.
