The distance between stones depends on whether you&rsquo;re actually going to step on your stones or just add them to your garden for looks. If you&rsquo;re going to create a path or walkway, you need to consider the length of most people&rsquo;s steps. In general, a stepping stone of around 18 inches in diameter and a distance of around 6 to 8 inches should work for most people.<\/p>\n<h3>How big should the stepping stones be?<\/h3>\n<p>Most stepping stones are 10 inches. in diameter, and 1.5 to 2.5 inches deep. But some decorative stones can be as large as 18 to 24 inches. It&rsquo;s all up to you and how you like them.<\/p>\n<h3>How much do paving stones cost?<\/h3>\n<p>If you choose the DIY route, they&rsquo;ll be a lot cheaper: just buy some cement, maybe a few colored marbles or mosaic pieces for decoration and you&rsquo;re good to go for just a few dollars.<\/p>\n<p>You can buy a stepping stone kit for the garden for between $10 and $25. Or, get ready to place stones for $20 to $40. Lots of options!<\/p>\n<h3>What can I use for stepping stone molds?<\/h3>\n<p>You can use your imagination here, and come up with all kinds of mold ideas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>the rim of a 5-gallon bucket<\/li>\n<li>make your own square or hexagonal molds from two by four wood<\/li>\n<li>find a heart-shaped plastic dish and use it as your mold<\/li>\n<li>use a fun shaped cake pan (make sure you spray some grease before pouring your cement so it&rsquo;s easy to release when done). There are lots of options here: bunny, paw prints, flowers, etc. The sky is the limit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here are some ideas of available pans for inspiration. <strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">TIP:<\/span> go find some used ones at a thrift store<\/strong> (it&rsquo;s a lot cheaper that way).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 0;
