You may decide to use a standard chalk line reel; this can create a line between the stakes so you know where to place your bricks. This means you can put the bricks into your landscaping design quickly and easily with minimum fuss.

If you’re breaking up your bricks to make the design for your landscaping make sure you protect your grass. Putting a piece of plywood on the grass and breaking the bricks or stone on there is a great idea and makes for easy clearing up too.

You will find that dry sand washes out from in between the bricks easily so maybe consider using a cement or polymeric sand which will stay in place under sweeping and brushing of the bricks or even rain and wind.

If you do decide to cut the bricks do your best to keep the sand down, this can be done easily by keeping the blade of the cutting tool wet as this keeps the blade cool and produces less dust for a safer cutting experience.
