Here’s how to get started on making your first DIY fence:
Firstly, you would need to specify the space that you have to work with, you would then need to outline that specific area and then dig a shallow trench for your log rolls to be inserted into. The trench would need to remain at a level height throughout in order for your fence to be at a level height above ground level. You will need to place dual layers of landscape edging, one on top of the other. Apply pressure to the log rolls to ensure that it is held firmly in the ground, you may proceed to fill up the trench with the sand that was dug out and simply apply pressure to the soil after adding it in. Some people do opt to use a few logs stacked horizontally, this makes for a different but also very appealing look within their gardens, this also allows for stability as well as ensures minimal mess in or out of the cordoned-off areas.
The advantage of using log rolls as garden edging is that they’re easy to use, as simple as unrolling and pegging them into the ground, as well as being functional and decorative. Log rolls can also be used as a sort of border to split landscaped and non-landscaped areas of the garden, it adds to the overall rustic feel within a garden. Another advantage of using log rolls is that they can be curved around any space, size or shape of the garden. It can even be used as a cordoned-off area to store a DIY fertilizer area.
