Create beautiful gravel pathways on a budget.
The Walkway
Relatively inexpensive and easy to install, a crushed stone walkway blends into almost any landscape says Don Saunders, Ceo of Saunders Landscape. Saunders continues by saying the addition of flexible edging allows for gentle curves and keeps the material in place. The walkway remains beautiful year round with replenishing the crush stone and sand every few years, this path will serve the beauty of your landscape for decades to come.
Saunders explains how easy it really is by simply using a home garden hose to lay out the curving sides of your path. It can be as free-form as you like -- these materials lend themselves to flexibility. Saunders Landscape Supply states that home owners should plan to make your path at least 36 inches wide so two people can walk comfortably side by side. The homeowner can purchase precut, pressure-treated log sections at their local home improvement store and the quantity of pressure treated logs can be determined by by measuring the total linear feet of edging by using the calculator at SaundersLS.Com, according to Saunders. Then simple divide it by the diameter of a log section. Don Saunders of Saunders Landscape Supply can help answer any questions you have with building your beautiful pathway and any measurements you may need for your project. Saunders Landscape Supply has created a list of what you will need to create a beautiful gravel pathway, so easy anyone can do this simply but beautiful gravel pathway!
