Impatient woman lays garden path

by Karen
I inadvertantly dumped a post by a lady who laid a garden path with pavers but no prep. She also painted some of it. She used scalloped edging. How can I find this again?

    I laid pavers with simple prep, although I didn't paint it. Hubby and I smoothed down the area to flat, then laid down the pavers. Walk on them to find low or high spots and add or subtract soil to bring it level to the others. When we were done with our front seating area, we went row by row and laid garden cloth down without cutting it, except to trim down one edge to match the house line. We laid them down right next to each other so that we didn't have to put sand or anything between the pavers. The seating area has been done for two years now and the pavers are still level and in place. No weeds yet either.

    I would suggest about 5 - 7 layers of newspaper under the pavers rather than weedcloth. You put down one layer at a time, then wet it thoroughly and continue until you have enough layers. This can go right over grass, weeds, or any living plant matter and will take years to degrade.
