ssg, because you already have some bricks, you could dig a trench so that the bricks are level with the ground, then put sections of scalloped brick edging behind them (photo 1). HD sells it in white as well. I left the scalloped pieces mostly out of the ground because I need them to hold back the mulch, but you could put them lower.

Photo 2: Those green plastic edgers fade very quickly, by the way, becoming more of a dusky blue-green color. These aren't completely faded yet, but I took this photo to show you another advantage of these - you can angle them into the ground at the end of the bed. Granted, they're still just cheap plastic, but they've worked well while I figure out what I really want to do with that bed.

Perhaps you could buy the plastic edging, pound it all or almost all the way into the ground and then put your bricks on top of it or in front of it to hide it?
