PATHWAY PATTERNS + BIT OF FUN

What fun to choose your pathway pattern. This path is obviously professionally done. How can you tell? See the stones cut to fit?
I love that a pattern was chosen but the space

forced it into irregularities within regularity.
.
A bit of fun. YOU create the path above. Using only free ingredients. YES, baby dolls you read that correctly. Using only free bricks, rocks & whatever.
.
Why?
.
That's how most landscapes are created. With found materials. And I want YOU to do the work. No fancy, smancy hired labor. You glorying on your knees in the dirt with hands carefully placing the vision of your heart.
.
Oh my, PUPPET BARBUDA is liking this as a flower show display. Wouldn't it be fun seeing all the different paths?

I've got the pickup, Call or email me when you find the free! I stalked one house for a pile of granite from a torn down fence. I knocked nearly every day for month. They already had plans.

I'm down with the challenge Miss Tara. We've got a side yard that's crying out for a path. I want to do something unique and fun and I have absolutely no issue with getting my hands dirty.

I just have to figure out the free. That is where I fail but I think Craigs List may be a useful resource for me in this respect.

Always love a good challenge. ;)
