One thing I did wrong. I should have left a few inches on the ends of the boxes of the weeguard. That way as it gets tugged at, it wont completely come off the box.

Looking good!

In the future, if you want to save some money on the weed guard, give cardboard a try. I just break a few cardboard boxes down, and lay them in the bottom of my beds. I usually let the cardboard sit for a week or two before I add the soil, just so the grass/weeds underneath start to die. With the cardboard and the soil, you won't have any problems with weeds growing up through the bottoms of your beds. And the cardboard will decompose over time.

I thought about doing that. The weed guard was there so I figured why not.

All I need to do now is get some mulch down and wait until more of it is ready to plant!

Here goes a few pics. When I get back home this weekend I will post more of a step by step of what I did. This is the first time I have done this. For about 3 years or more now I have been reading about this kind of gardening and finally Im putting into practice. Its exciting!
