Here's a clever idea, seen in a Santa Monica garden, for paths in your own patch of paradise. You can reuse old bricks, garden tools, tiles, terra cotta pot bottoms and whatnot to make your green journey a little more interesting.

I hate to say it, but it looks kinda like a trash heap from that angle.

But I did see a really cool way to re-use stuff in one of my home improvement mags: save your colored bottles and jars, wash 'em out and bury them neck first as a border for walkways and planters.
They also had them buried between pavers.
And they were all sizes from hot sauce jars to giant wine jugs.
I bet you could even make a patio out of them if you had enough.
I'm planning to incorporate some into my upcoming patio project. The backyard needs some serious color!
