Paddle Stone Pathway

The project

Not all garden paths are designed to be straight. Some are meant to wander.

What the guide teaches

• How to design an organic, flowing path that feels discovered rather than imposed
• Site assessment, layout planning, and reading the landscape
• Marking out and excavation for irregular stone pathways
• Sub-base construction and drainage considerations
• Sorting, staging, and dry-laying paddle stones for best visual balance
• Mortar bedding and bonding techniques for uneven natural stone
