How did you fill the empty spaces in your town?

I had this problem too so I got a path from Tumblr to put in my town. Then with the rest of the space (that didn't have PWP's in) I just filled with colourful flowers 
it looks so nice and was really fun to do . Also plant lots of trees and bushes! They look really good aswell

Very Very Nice picture Sholee.
One thing I will say to the OP about making nice patterns with empty space is you will most likely need a "Patern Mule" that is another character in your town that lays down patterns. If your main villager replaces a pattern in his inventory with something else, it affects the path as well so you will kind of be "Locked" into keeping those patterns. I have a path that has "Borders" along the outside and I need 9 pattern slots just for that one kind.......
I don't have a screenshot but one thing I make sure I have is a big "Open Field" with just flowers and no other obstructions like buildings rocks or trees. I used all the colors of tulips for it. I do this so that when I hit the "Up" arrow I get a "Big Sky" feel. It makes for great screenshots especially during the "Big Cloud" month of august, or double rainbows. Just my suggestion on something to do with some open space in your town.

I built hedges south of my river to build a enclosed community for most of the houses. It turned out wonderful! Used trees as gateways, and left a space behind each house for access (and because of that 13 in a row rule)
I also pulled a picnic blanket from tumbler and planted tons of tulips around it. Added a water pump PWP and, poof! Instant cute space!
I had to come up with different ideas because I have no patience for paths :/

pwps, paths and flowers mostly. or presents for my dream visitors heh.
wow, your town looks awesome! Where did you find those path patterns?After I laid out my path and completed my PWPs. I realized things looked empty in between the PWPs/buildings and paths. So I fill the empty spots with trees and floral arrangements.
Thank you, I design my own path.wow, your town looks awesome! Where did you find those path patterns?
I don't share the path I currently have but I do post a lot of my old patterns on my Tumblr blog.

I can't get pics right now, but most of my town is covered in flowers. Like I literally only have 2 spaces that aren't covered with something because I'm trying to get the gem rock to spawn there. In a corner of my town, I have kind of a circle-square of fruit trees with a bell/clovers/white carnations in the middle, and then a bunch of cedar trees.
If you use paths, some more elaborate path designs can take up some space, like two paths close together with bushes or a streetlight in between or something.

I filled an empty space of my town with a mini park. Here are some pictures:
The bushes are blue and pink hydrangeas, but they sadly aren't grown at the moment. The park looks much more beautiful with them, though.
It's not all that great, but it's alright I guess.

Man, all of those pictures look so cool. I've been playing New Leaf for almost a year (Sept 27th will be my one year) and I feel like I picked the crappiest map possible. I didn't know about paths and such when I first started playing and I didn't decide I wanted to do that until like a few weeks ago. I put in the campsite a few weeks ago and I regret where I put it. Now, I'm just going with the flow when it comes to PWP and I'm going to try to put paths around them once I actually get around to doing paths.

I don't have pictures of it, but I made a miniature park with a Jungle Gym, a Bench, and a Drinking fountain. I too have had this problem, I wasn't sure what to put in that one empty space until I told the forums what to put in that empty spot, it didn't really work. So I told my friend and she told me that I can make a miniature park and its was decided. Now i'm editing a few spots in my town that aren't really good enough.

hybrids, I have way too many
I have a bunch of parks, bordered by bushes. They contain various PWPs that I decided go together. I'm still trying to figure out what to do about flowers though. I've also got a couple areas of "forest" where the trees are growing pretty close together. No pics to share, unfortunately, because I haven't bothered to figure out how to get them uploaded anywhere yet.
