Examples of some stairs in the garden built with
natural flagstones.
Here are a few
photos of some stairs in the garden built with
natural stones, the elevation of each step is
supported with bigger square or briquet shaped
stones and the top or walkways with natural
flagstones ( Flagstone (flag) is a generic flat
stone, usually used for paving slabs or walkways).
The colors of the flagstones can vary depending of
what is available in your area.
We first build
the stairs in the raw earth with shovels and give it
the approximate correct shape, next we finf the
stones square shaped stones that give us the right
elevation for each step and next we level the stair
with sand or dirt and finally we place the
flagstones on top and fix the with a cement mix as
seen in the attached images.
Here are some
images with rustic stone garden stairs. The same
method can also be used to build flagstone garden
walkways. they can be supported with our without
cement depending on the design, desired look or need
for stability.
Be creative in
the layout and choosing of materials, these are just
some samples so you get some ideas of your own.
