The first and easiest thing that could make your little home look fresh is a new coat of paint. A new coat of paint to a home is like a cure to a zombie. This little tip is fun, especially if you have a knack for decorating or have had it as a passion. You can get kids to help too.

You can do it easily; there are sites available with a lot of information about how to do this simple task. You can put landscape fabric under the path to avoid weeds from growing through the rock.

You should dig the ground only so much that after you add the path, the level of it and the ground is the same. It may seem artistic to add irregular rocks, but make sure that you place the larger rocks first, then add the smaller and even colourful ones.
