Agreed, will cost far less making your own imprinted pavers. Plain
pavers cost a lot less to buy ready made but imprinted can be pricey.
Personally I don't see the point of imprinted pavers.


I just looked it up. An 80 pound bag of premix will make 1 paver 18 inches square by 3 inches thick, and cost $3.90. A plain paver of the same size is about $3.50. It's a lot of work to mix concrete.
