The Appeal of Stepping Stones
There's something appealing about stepping stones - they invite us and draw us along a pathway from one area to another. Take a look at how we've been using them in our gardens to great effect.
Stepping stones are a popular and regular feature in our garden projects. They are a great way to create interest in a design and to lead the eye through a garden. Not to mention their practical purpose to provide a path for walking from one area to another. They look equally good when laid through a lawn or gravel surface.
Reasons to Use Stepping Stones:
- Stepping stones take you on a journey through your garden leading you to a focal point such as a patio or pergola, vegetable raised beds or even to the shed at the bottom of the garden.
- They can act as a convenient and practical path without the hassle and expense of laying a paved or resin pathway.
- Probably one of the main reasons for installing them is to break up an area of lawn and add interest, leading the eye towards a particular area.
- When using large rectangular pavers, they can create a contemporary feel to a garden.
Here are some examples of stepping stones that we have installed in our gardens over the years:
