If you want grey, then most cast pavers look great, because that is the natural intrinsic color of the material. If you're in the high cost per sq foot range, then consider clay or natural stone paving material.

When it comes to the cost of paver decks and coping installs in Florida the price will vary between types of pavers and copings installed, size of overall decks, raised areas with double bullnose spas? Travertine pavers and coping will be on the upper end of pricing along with marble and Artistic pavers. The standard brick pavers range from $4.50 to $6.00 sg.ft with bullnose brick around $16 to $18 lineal ft and from there you go up $

I should be applying joint compound but I have never done this so I am hesitant . The grill is gas or charcoal? HUbby says he will never drip grease and he does. When we redid the patio in NJ I boxed in the gas grill with 1 and a quarter inch stone .PEa gravel gets kicked whereas the bigger stone laid placed. Husband hated the idea in laying the large stone where the gas grill was . There was no disruption to the pavers when I needed to replace the unit and no stones were ever kicked from around the grill. I added the stones cause I did not have the money to replace the grill . Do telephone "call before you dig" before even sketching a design. I did see the link . I think you have a very beautiful home with a nice sized yard. The patio will be a welcomed retreat. Think about your view from the deck. Most flowering plants need sun but hostas tolerate shade and give off a nice bloom . The hedges along the split rail have a border plant? Think about the entire yard not just the patio space. Think not as one looking in at the home but what you will view sitting. You do not need to spend a fortune. You can also do this in stages. Grass and plants absorb water................ will the pavers cause an irrigation issue. Will you lay the pavers up to the home? Will you have a garden and then the pavers. I bought a home where the previous owner used the garage wall to hold the topsoil. I removed the topsoil and installed colored stones and urns along this 18 foot section. I have a floral garden and herbs in some of the urns. I do not need to weed or mow this area. Just think about function and see what ideas you find on the internet. Houzz has great photos too. Have fun. Joint compound is calling me.

ewwmayo lol! gosh I was too lazy to crop the pot out and now that's the first thing that's commented on! haha. rina Naah I've only felted twice, I still have some felt left over! I'm hoping it is happy...a sweatered cactus.. Daniel -Totally not practical... : ) It's a felted "pot cover" that I felted and tugged over the clay pot inside. Always have to be pull it out of the way when I'm watering. And I made the pot way too small so the poor cactus doesn't have room to grow. (I know cacti like to have a smallish pot for their roots to sort of reach out against...but even with that in mind I know this pot is claustrophobically small) I haven't made any other felted pots but they're definitely cute decor. For things that don't need water.. lol. mintylemonade- I definitely take things too literally sometimes.
