Create a flagstone walkway for your yard or garden by first choosing the color of stone that will accent your property best. Then the shape of your walkway, whether curved or straight. Once that decision is made, purchase the stone in a little more quantity than you need, in case some stones need to be replaced later. You'll need to take the grass up and flatten the area where the walkway will
. go, removing any debris that could cause it to be uneven. Dig least two inches into the ground if you'll be adding a border, if not, you'll need to go five or so. Carefully place the stones along the path, choosing pieces that best fit each area, kind of like a jigsaw puzzle. Mix and pour the grout or concrete according to its specs, let it cure, clean off the excess, and you're beautiful walkway will be complete.
