“Put the edging in – this was actually quite difficult because new build gardens are full of rocks.

At the end of the video, Priscilla proudly showed off the finished result.
Priscilla’s clip has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly amassed a whopping 106,200 views.
It has 830 likes, 25 comments, 324 saves and 69 shares.
However, social media users were left saying the same thing – that Priscilla should have lined the wood first.
One person said: “You will need to line all of the wood, or it will rot. Sleepers are a lot thicker, so last, not sure how long this wood will last.”
Another added: “Oh no! Please line your fence as it’ll rot.”
A third commented: “[The] fence is rotting soon unless lined.”
In a follow-up clip, Priscilla addressed the comments about lining the wood.
As she showed off the lining of the sleepers, she explained: “This is a very good point.
“They came fitted with a liner but it’s porous so I’m not sure how long it will last.
