Simple garden edging and weed control membrane

[diydoo]

i'm new to the whole garden diy and want to tidy up my garden a bit.

My garden has a large trampoline for the kids and i want to lay a weed control membrane under it and then border it with a simple timber edging.

I was just wonder how deep i need to place the edging, do i go down level with the grass or leave a few inches above.

What materials do i need to be getting?

if you take it flush to the height of the grass you can mow over it without the need for strimming.

If the area is relatively level a simple frame of 4x2 or 6x2 treated timber will suffice. Buy a few treated 2x2 stakes and hammer them in at each corner and one mid-span and screw through into thses
