Concrete generally seems to be thought of as a bulk commercial material or a substitute for stone. Few have exploited its creative aspects, Mr Kahn and Early are exceptions. There are a number of systems where they roll patterns into paving cocncrete but these are again cheap immitations of other materials such as brick paving. I have always loved exposed aggregate sidewalks with pea gravel but using it as the pastic workable mat'l that it is should be exploited but seldom seen.

To make sidewalks more interesting, but no more slippery, could you press  
low-relief things into them, like leaves and stuff?  Like we did with clay  
things we did in first grade. 
 
Pennies?  Paper clips?
