I have a concrete patio that has a few cracks (minor) in it, plus some
rust stains.
Is there anything I can do to cover this up to enhance it?
I am thinking pavers, or some decorative rock, and not carpet or
painting over it. Also, hopefully, there is something I can do
myself, rather than hiring it done.
Thanks.

You could do pavers or rock but it isn't real easy. Well, it is easy to do
but is hard work. You would have to work out some sort of edge restraint,
but down about an inch of bedding sand, lay the pavers, compact the pavers
and then sweep sand into the joints.

You could get a bottle of CLR or other mild acid to remove the rust stains
and live with the minor cracking.

Don't even think about putting a layer of colored, stamped concrete over
what you have now.
