Pressure washing brightened up my 100 year old sidewalk like you wouldn't believe!
I also have a sidewalk that I lay objects on when I spray paint them (I am kinda the Spray Paint Queen). Of course paint gets on the concrete and I just use various colors to further "embellish" the walk. It has to be redone each season because the paint gets somewhat washed off in the rainy season (where I live the rainy season lasts for 8 months of the year). One year I might paint overlapping circles, another year it will be squarish shapes or mod looking flowers, curlicues, waves, etc. I usually use bright colors, but whatever color combo/theme you like would work.You could even use stencils. So many compliments! And so much fun! Have your crafty friends over for a spray paint party. If each friend brought a can or two of spray paint it would be a fairly economical project.
Pressure was h your sidewalk and let it dry completely, then use a stencil to paint a brick pattern on it. Use colors that will accent your home and have fun with it!
