Draw out your vision.
Gather the rocks that will work for it.
Then begin to level out areas to place them.
Without a plan of what you are going to do, it's hard to give specific guidance. However, if you are going to join them together I highly recommend Loctite's Power Grab.
Hi Valeria, hope this helps you out, there are some cool ideas here.

What are you considering as 'small'?
What sq ft of area are you wanting to cover with rocks?
What is the volume of rocks that you have to work with?
Dig a small trench around the area you want to fix then place rocks around it don’t forget the weed barrier
Hello Valeria,
As you don't say what sort of project you have in mind, might I suggest you use a Sack truck or a wheel barrow to transport the rocks, It will save your back alot!
We added rocks to a path. In hindsight I wish we could have layed down a barrier of some sorts to keep weeks from growing through it.
