Rendering Treated Pine Sleepers
Hello everyone,
I currently have quite a few treated pine sleepers which I wish to use to make a garden bed (approx 3 sleepers high).
If I wanted to use render to tie this garden bed into the existing ground covering (lillydale topping) could anyone suggest a way of doing this.
I'm assuming I couldn't just render onto the sleepers, maybe I can add a product to the sleepers then render?
I'm sure this sounds like a strange question, and I hope everyone can understand the question, but any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
Cheers.

About the only thing I can think of doing is to box them with blue board and render that.

There are a number of textured acrylic finishes that can be used to give a reasonable rendered look. They can be coloured or put on neat then painted. All the major paint brands sell make them. If course even though flexible they will not change the shape or joins in the pine wall - cladding with blueboard and coating would do that as silentC says.
