What is the best way to create an economical, path/sidewalk?

I would love to have a curved, brick path or sidewalk leading to my front steps. I don’t have a lot of money but my front yard is a very tiny city yard. I’m wondering how to create a path that fits the size of my yard and doesn’t look out of place and doesn’t cost a lot of money. I’d like to do the entire project myself.

If you live in a big city it might be difficult to find old bricks, but in my area, they are pretty common. I found all the bricks in this area which is about 10' X 16'
use pavers or buy one of those pavers maker that u pour concrete and make own path
Most big box home improvement centers sell "used" bricks and are more expensive than new bricks, at least in my area. Look on Craigslist list, freecycle.org, Nextdoor.com, habitat re stores for deals or free items. This may be what you are looking for:

Oh, Leann that was a playhouse for my now 26 year old granddaughter. Got a good deal on it at a yard sale. And the bricks were better a/c they were free!
