We are using natural stone flagstones from the mountain the cottage is located on. They came in huge slabs and we had to use hammer and chisel to split them to usable sizes. So this qualifies as repurposing too!

God you've a tough bit of work ahead of you, bet you'll be sorry you started more than a few times, but I can only imagine how much joy you'll get for years to come seeing your efforts all around you looking so good.
I often think I'd love the luxury of hiring professionals to do a job, how nice it would be to walk in and buy the best available materials, instead of making what you have work instead, but, nothing beats the feeling of standing back when the jobs all done & dusted, and saying " I did that, and it looks great."
Enjoy!
