DIY Natural Mulch Garden Paths - So Much Cheaper Than Hardscaping!

I have spent the better part of the last two months transforming last years vegetable garden into a combined perennial and veggie bed.
I needed garden paths that looked great without breaking my bank. I opted for natural mulch garden paths that also keep the weeds away. See how I made my natural mulch paths on my website.
One of my finished paths. Marigolds flank the sides of the paths nicely. A lovely lounging seating area is at the end of one group of paths. The garden bed has many paths in it similar to this.
Cardboard forms the base layer. It will degrade and the worms love it. It also keeps the weeds at bay.
Landscape cloth goes under my fence line plants. The weeds won't come through but the water will.
This urn planter was broken by tree trimmers. You can hardly see the damage when it was planted.
Natural Garden Pathways are so easy to do and keep the weeds away very well.
