For years we’ve planned to create a small area of paving in our backyard. The first idea was to try doing it ourselves, but I finally realised that it was going to remain an intention rather than a reality unless we got someone else to do it.
We are very happy with the result. Not only has it given us somewhere to sit outside, it has given the garden more structure and coherence.
Here are before and after shots.

yes, but so far we haven’t had the opportunity to use it – it’s been too hot. We’re looking forward to autumn when the outside temperatures become more comfortable.
