Real professional. 'Looks pretty level'. 'I feel it with my hand or maybe my feet'. I'm an Architect and I'm putting down stones that I collected on my land and I'm doing it the same way. MORE POWER TO YOU! You did a great job.

Can you please post an update photo after the little plants grew in between the flagstone? Thanks!

You did an amazing job! I would love to see an update once you get your finished look.
Not gonna lie that request at the end got me. Keep it up!

Thanks! Just what I was looking for. What did it look like after you let the plants grow!!!!???

Thanks for sharing. I would agree, no matter if you build a walkway with flagstones using paver base or just sand, the best results will come from attention to the levelness and compactness of the underlying soil. I do like your method and it surely makes the task easier just laying the stone in random order with attention to keeping the seams no greater width than 1 or 2 inches. I have not had much luck with polymeric sand, and after a few months of use, the seams are opening up and the flagstones are coming loose. Do you have any suggestions on another product or in the method you use in filling the seams with polymeric sand? Thanks so much for your help.

Thank you! Wondering if you could use the sand that hardens to a grout like material to keep weeds from coming through...

Looks great! Thanks for sharing. It doesn't look like you used edging between the pathway and the mulch that surrounds your plants. Do you find that that mulch stays in place enough? I'm a hopeful DIY'r and can use all the info I can get.

Wow- this is beautiful. Can you share what the pavers for this project cost you? Thanks!

i started something like this last summer, only on a much smaller scale. i wanted to grow grass between the joints. But, i found that it was hard to pack the soil in the joints, which exposed the sharp edges of the flagstone if you didn't step directly in the center of each stone. the soft soil would get kicked up, or pushed down. Wondering the best way to counteract this? or is that just something i have to put up with until the vegetation really takes hold? (even after grass grew it was very soft). Thanks!

Hello!! How long did that take for the grass to die under the plastic? Great video! Thank you! 🙏 😊

[chrisc]

How many days did this project take you? Looks great!

[lorrainedowden]

Great video, thanks for sharing, this is exactly what I am planning to do in my back yard. I do have a gopher issue though, would you recommend gopher wire underneath?

After 6 months, anything you would have done different?

In my area the weeds would take over between the pavers

What is the name of this type of flagstone?
