I wanted to add a patio in an unused area of our backyard. We had been dumping dirt and junk there while we renovated other areas around and inside the house. All that was required was several landscape timbers, a few boxwood bushes and 20 bags of pea stone. Total cost $217.00. Here are the results.

After. You can just see the boxwoods next to the concrete wall.
I spent the day, in the beautiful weather leveling and adding the timbers. |

Close up of the area. It's about 10' by 10'. I love it! |
