The idea of using Brick Pavers in Muskego to ceate garden paths is nothing new. What many people may not realize is those pavers can also serve other functions. Here are a few other ways to put them to good use around the yard.
Lining and Edging a Fire Pit
Fire pits are great ways to roast marshmallows and cook over an open fire. To make the space more appealing, line the pit with pavers. Top off the design by using the same pavers to create a lip or edge. When the same color of Brick Pavers in Muskego is used elsewhere in the yard, the pit also functions as a visually unifying element.
Adding a Garden Pond
The idea of a small pond surrounded with blooming plants becomes even more appealing when pavers are used to create the space. After digging out the hole, line the pond with a piece of old pool liner. Use the pavers to hold the edges of the liner in position. Add fresh water and any other elements desired.
Building Raised Garden
Not all gardens require digging in the ground. Consider the idea of stacking brick pavers to create a square, round, or rectangular gardening space. Fill the space with soil and plant those seeds. Many people find that tending raised gardens are much easier on the knees and the back.
Making a Retaining Wall
When the lay of the land is anything but level, why not define space with a retaining wall or two? The brick pavers can be used along with mortar to construct walls with an interesting pattern that adds to the beauty of the landscape.
Constructing a Sandbox for the Kids
Borrow the same basic idea used for the raised garden and create a sandbox for the kids or the grandchildren. The stacked pavers can be low enough to step over but tall enough to hold the sand in place. Position the sandbox so that it will be easy to keep the children within visual range at all times.
