Cobblestone path with quickcrete

Has anyone used the molds to make a cobblestone path? Was it worth the work? Anyone have pictures that they would post or emial me? I am trying to decide if I should just buy stones or try the cobblestone molds. I really like the look, but wonder how practical they are.

Hi bccecil
I did a small cobblestone path using the mold and quickcrete. I used the red concrete dye found at Hm Depot, Its a lot of work but it looks great!

I have a question regarding these molds. Can they be molded and then broken apart once set?...I like the look of the stones but want something that fits together a little more irregularly.

Hi milwdave, the mold can be broken apart easily to get an irregular pattern, because the mold is made up of individual cavities.
Thanks Pearl1
