Line planter beds to create a garden edge in areas that break up the greenness of everything. Bricks are an excellent way to make a long-lasting garden and carry a very low cost for upkeep. Brick offers a weatherproof style that lasts for years.

Under weeds in the back yard, one homeowner discovered bricks and stones that were presumably worthless to him. Instead of tossing them away, he recycled them as brick pavers for a lovely patio. He had enough stones and bricks to build a brick patio area, a built-in fire pit, and pathways.
