- Let's build a simple garden edging! Something that anybody can do and have great results, and at the same time time is different and unique from all the stone bed borders. Nothing more than some construction adhesive, a couple 2x4's, different length 4x4's, and some 5/4 deck boards for the top.

Hey everyone, so check this out. I showed my wife the video this morning and she was so excited. She looked at me and said you could do this "my love." She already went out side got the measurement and called Home Depot. I guess i have a project. Thank you again for the easy painless explanation. Next time i wont show her your other video's...
LolđđŒđđŒđđŒ
Your welcome and I guess I'm sorry lol thanks for watching
if it was that easy, she could have done it herself, & gave you the rest.
Well I guess I know what I'm doing this weekend during this Quarantine weekend! Thanks My Brother!âđŸ
Iâm doing this! Such an amazing idea and so informative! I need to do this because that side of my house is where the water from across the street from the culvert would always run over and move my rock, mulch or what have you! Canât wait to build! Thanks!!
Excellent video. Clearly explained; nothing fancy (tool wise). Excellent speaking voice
Looks really nice. You Tubing today, getting ready to build a 3 level deck and need some ideas resolved in my head.
Then I saw this pop up and also have a need on the side of my garage. I'm going to replicate this exactly it really looks fantastic. Thanks!
I loved this ideas . Hopefully, i can do this coming summer 2020. Thatâs my goal. Thanks for the tips.
Thank you for this! Completely new to DIY and planning on getting a flower bed done for my fiancé.
This is a great design I haven't seen before and which I reckon I can do myself! Top job, and a big thank you
Thank you for the well laid out video. Love your format. Straight forward and easy to follow. Your border looks great. I cant wait to try it. Thanks for the end bit about further reinforcement too!
I love watching video's that show me stuff that I can actually make, thankyou
No problem, thanks for watching! That's something I really focus on is simple, but nice looking projects most people should be able to accomplish and get a great look!
Very nice edging and good, clear, concise instructions. With spring just a couple of months away, this has given me some great ideas for my own garden. Nice job!
Thanks! Good luck
Yup
Great video, followed it step by step and I now have a boarder round the whole perimeter of our garden. Its a nice design and so easy to dođ Thank you for sharing đđ
Great video. Every step well explained. Appreciate the update on the end on how to make this edging even sturdier.
Thanks and you're welcome
@@JessedoesDIY I probably m
ditto, well explained
Everything looks great . I only have one suggestion. When you stack the (2) 4x4's drill through them with a 3/8" drill bit, put about (3) holes in each 8' section. Buy a 10' (or a couple) length of 3/8" rebar and cut it into 24" sections. Use a small mini sledge hammer and drive the 24" spike through both 4x4's into the ground. Now you will have a solid wall that won't move over time and you can finish with your top cap and not see the tops of the spike or the holes.
Absolutely
I was gonna say the same thing. It looks absolutely great.
Thanks
Yup did this on my last house, incorporated tiered sections as well, it's too easy and looks fantastic! The rebar adds tons of strength.
Nice!
Landscaper in Dallas, TX. Good Job, I like trying out new borders....Thanks
I just did this in my yard thanks to your tutorial. Came out great. Thanks!
Absolutely beautiful! I will definitely be doing this (some day) to the front of my house. Awesome work and thank you for the tutorial! đ
Very neat, simple design. For a UK build where it's always wet, a continuous dpc under the bottom board, up the sides and pinned under the top board would add life to the boards. Nice job and easily understood tips đ
Please tell me what dpc stands for. You may laugh about it but I'm a lady who does not do these kind of projects but I want to with the help of a helper
Now this a great idea. I want to try this in my backyard along my fence but into the 4-5 individual areas where the fencing I'm responsible for is. Thanks for the great video.
Very easy method that looks great. The comments for the retaining wall issue at the end were a good addition. Reckon I will use this method in a couple of years when I'm replacing the untreated timber I used. I knew I would need to replace it in a couple of years anyway but I had the untreated timber lying around the yard so I just used what was available to me at the time
to anchor the lower 4x4 drill 1/2" holes through them and drive 1/2" rebar 12-16" long through and into the ground, I have used this method on railroad ties for raised beds and they have never moved, good vid THANX
Came here to say the same thing. Very quick and easy to do.
nice job...and how refreshing NO annoying music in the background, just the real noise of tools working and u doing the magic work....ahhhh...so freaking refreshing.
Thanks, appreciate it
Beautiful and clearly explained. Great job! Thank you.
Great idea. Simple to do. Just finished mine and looks great! Thanks for the video
really great solution for a non-retaining wall bed. looks great and is very simple. should last a long time with some stain. Well done.
We always make a foot of gravel around the house. As deep as the foudation.
I love this video. Design that I can easily follow
thank you for making this video and giving me a great idea and also for walking us through all the steps.
This looks really clean! I might make me some raised gardens next year using this design! Thanks!
I used your formula and built four flower and veggie gardens. Added some drip irrigation and the project(s) turned out amazing. Thanks for the video and inspiration.
Brilliant job. Love the tip on doing 45 degree cuts on joining two boards up on a run, I'd have never thought of that, and I've not heard anybody mention that on other videos, so cheers đ
This is beautiful! Would love it for my frontyard edible gardening.
Did this today. Took me about 8 hours. Thanks for the video. Huge help. One reminder for folks, cut everything for fitment before you glue anything together. Also make sure your corners are 90 degrees perfect. I forgot about that and made my top piece 45 degree ends hard to mate up.
Just a tip...you should always make garden beds away from the walls of the home. Leave a foot or two.
Dirt against the wall above grade can cause structural problems due to moisture being held against the wall. Soil can also provide a super highway for insect infestations. The plants themselves become a transport system for insects as well as rodents, acting like a ladder to places they would have struggled to get to without the plant. Plant roots can disrupt foundation and actually break the structure, or the cladding. Mulch on the bed can exasperate moisture and insect problems. Finally, it makes it much easier to maintain both the home and the garden bed if the plants are not right against the home. Leave yourself room to access the house without having to tear your garden out or lop off branches that leave the plants looking mutilated.
Ronnie in VA I scrolled through a bunch of comments to finally get to your review. Yes did you see he already has a vertical crack in his foundation? I would not recommend anyone doing what this guy did.
Best comment here. I was wondering why is no one saying this.
But I will be following his instructions to make beds in the middle of my backyard cuz its very big
speaking of leaving a foot or two, putting your foot under a circular saw is a great way to do it.
â@Tahoe408 thats not a foundation crack thats just the parging. Theres already 2-4 feet of dirt touching the foundation below grade.
I was looking for a quick and easy solution to replace my old borders. Looks like I found it and it looks good too.
Nice! Glad I could help. Good luck
Same here. We have old brick that's an eye sore and falling apart. Added this to the honey do list
Great video. Thanks spring is almost here!
Excellent detail, filming, and construction. Thank you
Thank you for getting to the point from the get go. Well done!! Thank you!!
Thanks. Glad you like it
Thanks
My wife has been begging me to give her a flower bed this year. I love this concept and I have the upmost confidence to do it. Definitely subscribing to your page mate!
Well tell her after watching this video she can build it with no worries....
I edge my garden bed 24/7, currently on a 256 day streak
Enjoy watching this , thanks for sharing !
Thank you very much very well explained without using over complicated audio and video tech.
This is really good.
I love this project and it looks really nice
That is AWESOME! It really looks good!
Very beautiful! †Thanks for explaining clearly and getting straight to the point! I'm going to try this myself. Wish me luck đŹ
Thanks, glad you like it. Good luck on yours!
I just found you and youâre legitimately making some quality videos.
New sub at around 1500.
Looking forward to some more videos.
Thanks! I really appreciate it
Hey thanks a lot for this exactly what I wanna do in front of my house. Looks great and easy to do
Just what I was looking for thanks for posting. Clear concise - subscribed.
Now thatâs my kind of DIY project! Uncomplicated - few tools, fewer materials, and not a lot of time. Looks good, too! BTW, nice voice, good video pace, excellent editing, and no annoying background music. Thank you!
Thanks so much
I agree! I actually like this so much I plan on copying this for my garden! đ
Fantastic! I'm glad you like it, good luck on yours!
Great job! Super simple, but looks high end. I'll be stealing your idea and building these in my yard :)
This is really nice! I may try your method on my back yard this summer! Thanks!
Exactly what I was looking for, def. doing this thanks for the video!
That is beautiful, thank you
Damn, that looks pretty good.
I have never seen any wooden planks like that for sale in any DIY shop in my life, ever.
Great looking border man! I'm gonna copy that! Perfect!
I like this idea. Thank you for your video. I was wondering what I was going to do and now this seems like the best Idea for what I was wanting to go for.
Looks great, I'm gonna build a small bed now and if goes well I will do all around the house. Thanks for the great idea
Donât forget to treat the ends where you have cut the timbers with weather treatment đđđ
What is used for weather treatment?
Copper coat is a common one, but something called Cut-N-Seal is specifically made for this.
Beautiful construction bro! You make it look easy. You've inspired me to try and do that myself.
Looks wonderful! đ± đŸ đż
Nice work!
Thatâs legit really good! Going to make a few as we have time off work because of this horrible virus.
Thanks! Stay safe
That looks really nice. Attractive wood finish with the vertical blocks really does add character to it.
Thanks! Appreciate it
I was searching all over CZcams for Garden Bed, this one is by far the best one. I will recommend this video to any of my friends and family.
Wow, thanks so much!
Clear, concise, well done video and a great idea!
This is the exact idea, I was looking for

Ty.. you got straight to the point đ I love the whole concept of design. Very nice touch by adding the 7" of 2Ă4 to the side. It gives it that little extra Pop to make it stand out. Great job
Thanks! Glad you like it. Yeah I felt it needed something and I'm happy I did it
Looks great. Nice professional job.
Very well done tutorial. Even the average women could make this! Thank you
LOVE THE LOOK! MY HUSBAND WILL NOT BE HAPPY AS I NOW HAVE ANOTHER PROJECT IN MIND! I KNOW HE WILL D0 A REALLY GOOD JOB AFTER HE WATCHES YOUR GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU!
Thanks so much! Good luck
Lol these wives of ours I tell ya đ
its so easy you can do it yourself, leave the husband's to do other stuff
You snapped my brother. Awesome job!
That looks really nice! Great job!!
I'm astounded! You know what you're doing; you explain thoroughly and efficiently. The project is simple, attractive and structurally sound for its intended purpose. Good video & audio. Liked and subscribed. Thank you for your channel and for single-handedly restoring my faith in the DIY community at large. You sir, are a content-providing gem!
Wow, thanks so much, that means a lot. I really appreciate it. More coming down the pipe soon! Let me know if there is anything you need help with
I'm in process of making this and it's turning out better than I thought! I didn't use any glue but it's not really needed I just added more screws, and those 2by4 pieces actually add strength because they hold the 4 by 4's together
I love it I live in a mobile home park and have very little room very crappy lawn thinking of doing this one,thanks
Awesome wrk mate brilliant n simple few tools but grt outcome đ
This is a great idea to follow, I was considering brick until I came across this gem, thanks for sharing!!
I did something similar like this. I anchored my 4x4 with 12" rebar and it did the trick.
Awesome! Yeah that's exactly it
Love it! Thank you for sharing your ideas. đ
Finally some edging construction technique without use of concrete⊠thank you
Anytime
If you need reinforcement, drill holes and pound in 12 to 18 inch pieces of rebar.
Gosh this is amazing. Iâm going to try this this year. But be careful with the power tools bruh.. great video as usual
Nice job with your video. That's a really nice looking bed frame. Thanks for the insight.
May 2020 backyard project. Great video, thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for this. I am going to try this. You really scared me when you started cutting the wood on your foot.
Lol I cut it beside my foot, but yes
Great video! I'm gonna do this exact bed, love it! What were all the types of wood you used? All pressure treated right?
Thanks! All of it was Sienna Brown pressure treated pine. 4x4 posts, 1Ă6 deck boards, basic 2Ă4. Have fun
Thanks! Great stuff. Just subscribed
@@JessedoesDIY Hello, thank you for your video. Does the pressure treated wood safe for a vegetable garden and will it last few years. I don't know anything about wood and with all the moisture with the soil again it. I am just wondering. Thank you again...
Hi, you could use it and things would grow fine, however I wouldn't. Over time they can leech some of the pressure testing chemical into the soil and food bearing plants can absorb it. I'd use something naturally rot resistant like cedar. It will last quite a few years, almost as long as pressure treated but with no chemicals.
This is too cool... Thanks for sharing!
If you got kids, use the stakes... đđ»
You sound like David Schwimmer, Ross from Friendsđ„°
Crystal Farmer sorta, yeah đ„°
It looks beautiful .
Thanks ... I just made my own this past weekend ... had an incline to deal with - made two beds. Came out great
Good to hear, thanks for watching
I just lost my husband ..all I can do is say itâs beautiful..wish I had one đ
I'm very sorry for your loss. Prayers to you and yours.
Try to make one. He might look at u from the Sky and just be proud.
Kinga Cendrowska I am my oldest son is helping me đ...I love flower garden ..I even planted 10 tulips and a Mr .POPPINS shrub on his grave ..
@@Mig-nr8hc I'm sorry for your loss but I'm sure he'd be happy to see and hear that. Stay strong
Iâd help you if you need someone to make that for you
What kind of wood would you use for this project? Looks really good though!
You could easily use cedar, that is very nice and is naturally rot and weather resistant. I used pressure treated pine, it's what I have available and is 1/3 the price of cedar. Once it dries out it looks like cedar, or as close as you can get. If you are growing food tho I would go with a natural wood like cedar, the chemicals in pressure treating can wick into the dirt over time and some plants don't like it
Great look. I am going to try this exact build at my house. Looks great.
I think you did a beautiful job!! Stay creative.
whos the idiots that disliked....seriously?? looks good
Love this project but I would coat this with a weatherproof stain or something.
Thanks! You absolutely can, the wood is already pretreated tho, and you have to wait 2 months to stain treated wood after install
Thatâs a nice design! Iâve done a wood and stone garden border. This looks much simpler than my wood one đ
Looks great! Will be using this for my side yard :)
Looks great. I do wonder why 800 people don't think it does? They need to get a life....
That was my first thought... my only guess would be they are safety gurus that didn't like how he was cutting those boards while supporting it with his foot! But I thought he did a great job... one of the better diy projects i've seen lately.
Thanks! I'm just used to doing that stuff at work, I don't give it another thought lol
I miss the public dislike button đą
Haters gonna hate
