How to lay down a paver stepping stone walkway?

Diane....You can use as stepping stones or connect to make the walkway. You will need to decide what you want as well as the design, straight or curved. I would draw out first and see how many I felt would be needed. It will be necessary to level the ground under each paver. Hope this helps. It can be Googled with videos to see it done.

Piggy backing off above: Once you dig out the path, put a sand base down. "tap" each stone into place and make sure each one is level.

Kathy is right that walkway paving stones need some sort of base to help anchor them in place and to support them from slanting and shifting - either landscaping sand, or crush.
