You can use any wood that you feel matches your home since we have such a wide range of discount wood products here at Kennings. However, we recommend using our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kennings.co.uk\/subdept\/2576\/0\/sawn-sleepers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sawn sleepers<\/a>. They are treated to fight insect, fungi attacks and also help to prevent wet and dry rot. Not only that, but they have a beautiful rustic look. If you want to copy the landscaping below, we recommend using some of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kennings.co.uk\/dept\/49\/decorative-aggregates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">decorative aggregates<\/a>, these are available in many different colours and textures to match your garden&#8217;s aesthetic!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"625\" height=\"738\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kennings.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Railroad-Tie-Walkway.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-288\" style=\"width:538px;height:635px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.co.uk\/pin\/175640454206913266\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">DIYJoy<\/a> on Pinterest<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gutter planter<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Gutter planters are a fantastic way to reuse old guttering for an environmentally friendly planter &#8211; however, if you simply love the look we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kennings.co.uk\/dept\/57\/guttering\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wide range of low-cost guttering<\/a> on our website.
