The back of the garden is currently a mess:
I've been considering neating it up using railway sleepers to create a bed and then fill with stone chippings. I've then thought about making it a bit more elaborate with a smaller raised bit at the front for some small flowers to bright up the garden. I haven't added the shed in the drawing but this would be to the left of the bed.
Here's a real life example:
I've also come across Woodblocx, which although is expensive, looks a lot simpler to put together:
I'm pretty clueless on how to tackle this. I've seen people on youtube use metal rods and concrete to anchor the bottom sleeper but it's for a retaining wall which would need support. Any suggestions on the type of sleeper that maintains a bright or light colour rather than becoming grey or silver over time?
