We recycled old bricks to create a mud-free entrance between our garden and our garden shed.
Brick Sidewalk & Flowerbed
14.07.2023 - 00:21 / hometalk.com
There were no established flowerbeds or walkways in the front of my house. There was however a buried brick sidewalk in the back yard that was no longer needed. I decided to repurpose those rather than buy edging or have concrete poured.
You will need to have a level sandy area to lay the brick. Spread the dirt, and use a rake to level.
Gather brick and unload them near worksite.
Begin laying bricks. Tap them from each side as you go to ensure a tight fit.
Continue adding rows and making sure it’s tight as you go. I used a board and sledge hammer every few rows to help tighten. You may have to play around with the placement of the brick. I changed it up a bit after seeing the first few rows laid.
I decided to make a border on each side by turning the bricks.
I curved the walkway to meet up with driveway. Then I installed a border around the flower beds. I added mulch to help prevent weeds.
Add bricks till complete. I watered down with a hose and avoided walking on it for several hours.

DIY Brick Garden Border and Edging
This month I decided to tackle one of the weed-coated areas around my pool to update it and make it look much more presentable. I removed all the old garden borders and edging, which were made of wood and vinyl and were disintegrating and cracking from being in the direct sun over the years. I replaced the borders and edging with brick, in addition to pulling a LOT of weeds! You may have seen my previous post detailing the border I made using concrete retaining wall blocks. For this project, I used much smaller bricks to build the borders and edging.

For those of you that have been around for a while, you know that we have done so many projects with the 2 pallets of reclaimed brick that we got from a local greenhouse. And we still have some left! We have been slowly creating a little backyard retreat, and instead of a fire pit where the bottom always rusts out, I decided to make a permanent fire pit with the leftover brick.
