All,
I am in the middle of doing up a garden 5x2m to the front of our house. I am trying to do it as cheap as possible.
I have already made 3 planter boxes out of waste plywood and painted them black. 625x625x 410dp. Any suggestions how to raise these up to at least 6ft off the ground.
I was looking to put a U planter bed around the edges and use sleepers to border it. The cost of the sleepers is €17.99, 2.4 x0.1x0.2m. Any suggestions of a cheaper alternative or where I could buy cheap scaffolding boards.
Also looking to use carpet under some stone called lite stone. I have been told not to use carpet as it will break down over time. The problem is it is only 10m2 and buying a large roll of weed preventer layer would not be of any benefit. The stone is €100 for a tonne. I am estimating that I would use a tonne but need to do a calculation.
