DIY Flagstone Path Tutorial

Having a nice path in your garden can make a big difference. It is the first thing you see before entering a garden and can raise big expectations. That’s why a nice and clean pathway is really important, it reflects the outlook of the whole garden. You can make this pathway curvy or straight and add different kinds of decorations to it. To make a really nice flagstone pathway, follow the instructions below.

First of all it is very important to clean the area where you will be making the path. Clean the surface, remove all weeds and make it a smooth area. Then choose the materials you will be working with, such as concrete, stones and gravel. You can also use sand, but is not as resistant as the other materials used for construction. You will need to install a bender board edging and lay down landscape fabric. This will prevent the weeds growing and will keep your path clean. Lay down sand on the fabric and arrange it smoothly. Use water to moisten the sand while working with it. Use a drum roller and press it on the sand to make it firm. Now start adding the stepping stones and apply pressure with your hands in order to secure them. Use gravel to fill the cracks between the stones. There you have it, an easy way to create a beautiful and welcoming path.

Mini Pies in a Cupcake Tin

Ingredients

2 (2-count) packages Pillsbury refrigerated pie crusts

4 cups (or 2 21-ounce cans) pie filling (cherry, blueberry, apple, peach, etc.)

1 egg, whisked

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.
2. Roll out a single pie crust on a flat surface. Use a large cookie
   cutter or any sort of circular lid to cut out a 4-inch circle of dough.
   Press each dough circle into the bottom of a muffin tin so that a tiny
   rim of dough remains sticking out the top. Repeat with remaining dough
   to fill all 12 muffin cups.
3. Fill each cup with about 1/4 cup pie filling, or until the filling nearly fills the cups.
4. Use the remaining dough to cover the tops of each pie. To make a
   lattice crust, use a knife or pizza cutter to cut out thin strips of
   dough, then lace together to form a lattice. To make a standard crust,
   cut out a circle of dough just large enough to cover the top of the
   crust. Use your fingers to gently press the top crust to the bottom
   crust until they stick together and no gaps remain.
5. Use a pastry brush to brush the tops of each pie with the whisked
   egg. Then bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden
   and the filling begins to bubble.
6. Remove and let cool for at least 15 minutes. Then very carefully use
   a knife to loosen the edges of each pie and gently lift each pie out.
   Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate.
