Update your Sidewalks and Pathways

One of the most important design elements in a garden is structure. It’s easy (with a little bit of work!) to add structure by adding paths and garden walkways and certainly the sidewalk coming to your front door. They give the eye a place to rest, follow, and let you lead visitors to the front door and throughout the garden. Classic DIY garden walkway ideas & projects can be done in a weekend and can seriously up the stake on any garden design. Even adding a simple DIY pathway from the street to the front door adds value. You can direct the garden wanderings or keep visitors out of specific areas. Also, garden walkways can lead the eye to the important focal points and recreation areas of your yard.
