- Incorporate patterned stones into your plans. From leaf shapes to combinations of square and round stones, it gives your pathway a personality all its own.
- Don’t shy away from color. Brightly colored stones provide a contrast between the greens and browns of your landscape.
- Consider pathway breaks. Adding small sections of planted material brings the pathway to life and helps it feel more like a natural extension of your yard.
- Pay attention to drainage. You will want to make sure that snow and water won’t accumulate on your pathway and create soggy messes for you to tread through in inclement weather.
- Blend your pathway with your home’s architecture. Ideally, you’ll want to select materials and patterns that make your pathway feel like a natural extension of the home.
