Where can I find some resources that can be used on a stone floor (preferably best for stone floors in towns)?

I'm not sure what you mean. B tiles are transparent for that reason so that you can put them on any floor or wall you want. What exactly is it that makes the tiles you have not work on stone floors?

What's mostly for grass? I really have no idea what you're talking about, not the slightest clue. Could you post an image showing how something you want to use on a stone floor isn't working for you and explain what it is about it that isn't working?

Syrubis has stone-like furniture edits.

Cait's French Country edits should look fine:

Mack has a stone fireplace and a stone-topped kitchen counter.
but I agree with Sharm that I am not really sure what you want. -
I'm looking for things like flowers and bushes for grass, except for like stone floors in villages (not just the paths).
-
perhaps you want a stone floor that have some part/side of it that grows flower/grass ?
-
Not exactly, I'm looking for things to go with the stone with as much of variety as the flower/grass.perhaps you want a stone floor that have some part/side of it that grows flower/grass ?

I'm trying to understand here - you are wanting to map villages with stone roads/floors - not dirt and grass? And you are wanting appropriate items to fill the space as you would scatter flower and rocks on the dirt/grass?
If this is correct, what kind of things do you see scattered on the stone? It seems like you are not wanting flowers and natural stuff - so what exactly is it you are looking for? Please be specific with the types of items you have in mind so that we can help you find them.
If you are not sure of what items would be appropriate then say so. -
Exactly. Of corse, I don't know what could fit myself, making this a unsolvable problem. :(I'm trying to understand here - you are wanting to map villages with stone roads/floors - not dirt and grass?

When I think of a a village with paved stone roads, I think of boxes and crates and barrels lining the store fronts, pots of flowers, maybe some benches, you could use the lampposts to help fill in the space - there are tons of things in the RTP and available in the resource area to help fill it in. And if you are unsure you can always post in the screenshot feedback thread for more tips on what you've started.

When I think "stone streets," in classic fantasy games, I think "established, wealthy city." So a city with stone streets would be very different than the far more typical small village. I'd see a lot more shops and stone buildings than I would large swaths of grass.
Even "simple" cobblestone streets were very labor and resource intensive to build, if you think about it. How many cobblestones and how much effort would they take to line up and to dig holes for them and make a somewhat smooth surface from them? Imagine having you and several of your friends make, say, 2 miles of cobblestone streets, by hand (or with, at most, a few simple tools) and you'll see what I mean.
Then, if you wanted the road to last, there would also need to be some type of drainage so water doesn't sit under the stones. Instead, you want the rain to run off the sides. So it takes a lot of effort and planning to make good, stone roads, more than most typical fantasy villages will put in, unless they are part of a strong, established empire (think the Incans).
My point is: most average towns probably had a few dirt roads and more worn dirt paths, created by livestock or foot traffic.
Of course, if your city is set in a desert, and they're not living mainly in tents (I think a nomadic lifestyle is fairly common there), they would almost have to use stone or some type of pueblo architecture to keep cool during the day. But, even there, stone streets may not be that common, unless there is enough trade in the city to justify the effort involved in building a stone road. -
It seems this is now a mapping problem, not a resource problem.
