Glass pathways

Submitted by Mary on January 1, 2008 - 17:14.

I've seen instructions for making garden paths out of old glass bottles and jars. Basically, you fill the jar with sand, gravel or something similar, and then seal the container tightly. Then you dig out the path you want to pave, and then place the jars in the shallow trench upside-down and then fill in the remaining spaces with dirt or sand. I can see this working well for mason jars, but I don't know how the canning rings would hold up over time.
