    Keep it weeded and grow flowers along the borders. This will draw the eyes to the flowers.

    Kill all that crab grass and weeds..... put some Scott's Weed and Feed on it, spray some Weed B Gon on the concrete where weeds have broke through as it will destroy the walkway.

    I agree -- it's not the concrete that needs so much help as it is the yard! Plant a small ornamental tree in the center (what is appropriate for the amount of sun it gets) or place a birdbath there and surround it with flowers, and border everything.

    If you can find the decorative brick with the x's or holes on the side and lay the with the holes facing up and brick on the outside of the walk way will widen the walk area as well as add interest. Looks like the outline of an old bath tub or possibly half a wine barrel filled with marigolds or petunias. Careful on bricks you use can add or detract from the look. Natural is better.

      ThankThanks for the suggestion. I'll definitely take a look at those bricks.

    Kill the weeds, fill the cracks with crack filler, then use a concrete resurfacer. Then tackle with some weeding and plantings.
