Bricks to make a flower bed

[Sainttoff]

Hi;

I want to make a flower bed in the back garden. Want it to be around 3 bricks high, looking for the fancy bricks, does any one know where to get them in dublin?

Also are sleepers expensive?

I'm not sure what you mean by fancy bricks, but try some of the DIY stores if you want small quantities of bricks.

Railway (?) sleepers are from about 25 to 30 euro each. Be careful if they need cutting as they may have been treated with carcinogenic preservatives, which in any case may also make them unsuitable for horticultural use. Ask where you buy them.

you could get the red brick types & sleepers in most reclaimation yards. - google them
