I figured some of you might appreciate this...

Most of our new front walkway is just concrete pavers, but the landing by the front door is where it gets funky. I installed LED light strips under tumbled glass pieces. I added a binder to the glass, so it will be one hard piece. However, that will make the maintenance of the LED’s impossible... hopefully they last a long, long time. 

Its something I’ve wanted to try for a long time...

That is very cool looking. Can you adjust the color of the lights? I know LED light will allow color changes.

That's crazy cool, but every install I've seen like that has had long term longevity issues with the LEDs. I hope yours live a long life but even if they don't the tumbled glass inbetween the stones is cool on its own.

I’ll have to dig for it. Bought from amazon, 24 volt. Cut to length and siliconed on end caps to seal them up.

the good thing is, it's in front of your house and not on a busy sidewalk, hopefully the lack of traffic will keep them working a long time
