And last spring RH copied it as much as possible in our garden! But in the center he put a large old cupola to sit over where the old well cover was, with flower beds around it. He used TN crab orchard stone for the pavers and brown pea gravel between. I love it so much! <br /><br />I hope you can incorporate some of the big stones you have from your property in your new paths as well as the pavers.
