How can I decorate this outdoor area?
We had to take up broken up pavement and we are trying to figure out something simple yet pretty to put in its place. It needs to be something that does not cause any additional obstacles and something that would not be possibly stolen. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated and we are on sort of a time crunch.
