Garden Area Rug

texaswild
12 years ago

My belated Christmas gift for my best friend Jeannie. The stepping stone is from a local tile company that uses left over marble they use in counters/bathrooms etc. They crush it, and mix w/resins to make the stones. I used many of them in my backyard re-do, and had several left over. The bricks are antique bricks the same thickness as the stepper. Wish I had time to make another row of bricks to make the circle more complete, but Jeannie was a student of mine, and can add to it and make it as large as her area dictates. Think I'll make some of these for my "Crooked L'il Bench" area.
