build 2x4 frame. place a 1x1 strip around the edge to keep the ends of twigs in place.

cut twigs to appropriate length (my gate was just under 2 foot and i could get 3 lengths out of each twig). use glue gun to attach twigs to frame. place twigs in 2-3 layer to make the gate opaque.
screw 1x2 strips through the twigs and into the 2x4 frame around the edges. hang and enjoy!

This has the potential of looking really awesome, I can see it in a natural zen garden kind of setting. Sadly, the messy unfinished patio area pictured in the final result photo doesn't show its true potential.
