My parents used the same type of form when they did their walkways in the back yard, but my mom wanted all the stones to be different colors, so they wouldn't look so "concretey". She went to a grocery warehouse store and bought large bottles of food coloring. She brought them home and poured each color into a spray bottle. While the concrete was stilll wet she sprayed each stone with any combination of food colorings. Its been about 20 years, and though the colors are not as vibrant as they once were, they have retained a lot of the color and they still look really good. Those food color bottles are still available at Smart & Final for about $4 per 8 oz bottle.

Hi Bombshelly. That's very interesting. I've never heard that before. But I guess any kind of pigment could give concrete some coloring. Next time I'm mixing some concrete, I think I'll give that a try to see how it comes out. Thanks for the tip and thanks for watching! Jackie & Dan

Hey, thanks for the coloring tip, because I thought about the same idea. Plus, I was thinking about finding some type of glaze as a finish to retain and protect the color; while protecting the stones.
@jdgardensnj4563 Жыл бұрын
@@jouforward4609 Hi Jou. Yes, coloring concrete can be a very nice option but remember it can be unusually expensive depending on how much you're making. As far as the colorfast, it does hold its color pretty well over the years. If you're planning on trying to use any kind of glaze, make sure that it's not too slippery because you wouldn't want it to get slick when it rains. Thanks for watching! Jackie and Dan

What I like about this system is you don't have to commit a whole day or weekend to the project. You can just do 2-3 bags at a time on busy days, more on slow days. If you use a trough for mixing the concrete, the cleanup time is probably 10 minutes. You can also avoid those super-hot or cold days. Keep the bags of cement dry, and the project can be done over weeks with little mess in the yard.

I used a similar form about 25 years ago to do a walkway on 2 sides of the house .. around 11 linear meters (+- 36 feet) long x 1.5 meters (59") wide. Took me a few months, (young kids, rain, household duties) and mixed in a trough. Just me, myself and I 😺 .. I like doing that type of work, so not complaining just stating that even one little lady can do the job in case someone finds the thought overwhelming .. You Can Do It!! I dug, installed concrete borders first plus a little sand and gravelbto even out the base. I used concrete to fill halfway up the spaces in-between where you used topsoil. It still looks good except a section in front where I believe the earth shifted over time with the help of roots, freezes. Oh, by the way, I'm 5'2", similar build to your wife. I live in the Paris suburbs and brought my frame back from a US visit in my luggage. We didn't have them here at that time. Looks like you have a nice large yard, will go check out your other videos . Thx, Alysen

I've done this path. Its really fun. I've added to it over the years, making different curves and turns. I also made a couple forms on an old piece of plastic on the driveway. That way, I have individual pieces to fill in if needed. My path is over 20 years old and had held up great. I'm near Buffalo, New York and the cold has not affected it at all. Have fun.

Hi Michael: Thanks for the comment. Yes, if you do alot of concrete work, a cement mixer is a MUST. I've had mine for about 15 yrs and it's still going strong. I was just using it all summer, replacing all the fence posts in my backyard...we're talking over 50 bags. If you're thinking of using the WalkMaker, it will definitely be a time-saver. If you have any questions on using the WalkMaker, feel free to reach out again and check out the follow-up video to this one, if you haven't already seen it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eMV7m7Ogs8y2hWg.html .

Hi @nikkidee0411: Thanks for the comment. Yes, it really is a great DIY project. But we noticed in your comment, that you said "stamp". A stamp for concrete is different than a mold or template. The Walk Maker mold is something that you pour concrete into and it creates individual stones, like pavers. A stamp is something that you press down into an already poured body of concrete that will just leave an impression on the surface. Either one are great options but there is a difference in the process. I hope this made sense - if you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us. Thanks for watching! Jackie and Dan

Hey there. Don't get nervous, it's alot easier than you think. If you've ever mixed a bag of concrete, you can do this. It's very forgiving. It takes awhile to dry so it gives you time to work it. The first one or two bags might be a little intimidating but by the 3rd or 4th, you'll be a pro. Best of luck and post some pics when you're all done on our FB page. We'd love to see them.

Lol Thanks. I plan on installing above ground pool. Trying to do everything inexpensively but nice. Thanks again. This would be great as a walkway around the pool.
@jdgardensnj4563 Жыл бұрын
Hi Doron: Your message made us both laugh. :-) Those 80 lb bags do take a toll on the bones. But like anything, after you do a few of them, you kind of build up your own rhythm and it becomes easier. As far as using the WalkMaker around your pool, be sure to use a concrete with more Portland and less aggregate. You'll want to make the top as smooth as possible so it will be easier on bare feet, as people get out of the pool. Just take your time and tap down any aggregate that's too close to the surface the way Jackie showed in the video. Hope it comes out great - be sure to let us know how it goes. Thanks for watching!

Hi @chrisblanco8923: Thanks for the comment. Absolutely! If you do alot of work with concrete, a cement mixer is totally worth it! The amount of time and energy spent is definitely worth $300. And actually, that goes with any kind of tool that you're going to be using for a long period of time. We've been replacing all the fence on our property and renting an auger for the whole day is like $89 at HD but buying one is just a little over $200 and I get to work at my own pace ... so it's a no-brainer. But we're glad you enjoyed the video.

Moss joints would be incredible. Its going to want clean air to grow well though. If you live countryside itll work, cityscape it wouldnt very well.

This is the comment I was looking for. I’m in the south and building my walkway in full sun. I’m going to use creeping thyme.
