If you have enough bricks, then you can create a nice little pathway for your garden! It’s cute, simple, and looks great when it’s surrounded by the plants!
Try making a firepit out of the leftover bricks! It’s actually not as hard as it looks and it will give you and all your guests a reason to keep on going to the backyard!
You can also make an edge for your garden out of the leftover brick that you have! The edging can be aboveground or you can make it go deeper and put the bricks into the ground!
Invite some beautiful birds to your backyard by making a birdbath out of the leftover bricks! Just stack them up high and then put a little saucer or container on top for the water!
Turn the old brick into a great succulent container! You’ll have to carve out a spot for the succulent, but once you have it, the succulent will fit right into it!
This requires quite a bit of leftover brick, but if you have it, then make a great garden bench! You can make a whole section if you wanted, and then just put some pillows on it to make it a bit more comfortable.
You can also turn the bricks into garden markers. Simply write the name of a plant on the brick and put it in that part of the garden! Super simple!
Carve little circular holes into the brick to turn it into a rustic tea light holder! It’s great, especially for outdoor lighting, and holds the light securely!
Get creative and turn the bricks into books that you can use as decorations, bookends, or just a little touch of a favorite novel. Books are always in style!
Make a raised planter from the leftover brick and use it to hold some of your most favorite plants and flowers! It looks great and is super easy to make!
