I have been obsessed with concrete this week. I know it has been done before, but I have never used it. You can make stepping stones, signs, planters, all kinds of yard art. A sixty pound bag of concrete cost me $2.88, you can't beat that and look what all I have made out of 1 bag.

I just found plastic containers at the thrift store to use as molds.

|
Here is the round one, I think I will paint this one, it turned out so smooth. |
|
This is the egg, the bunny I wish I had made. |
|
This also turned out smooth. |
|
These stepping stones I will take out of the molds tomorrow, I used cheap cake pans. |
|
A little succulent lives is this planter. |
|
This is made out of a jello mold. |
|
I love the way the fish turned out, even though he lost his lower lip, I was impatient and took him out before time. |
|
This mushroom I will paint after I tear the baby bottle away. |
These projects are a little messy and the only time consuming part is the waiting 2 days to take the molds away, just do not be impatient like me. I think these are a cheap, decorative idea for the garden.
I will show you guys how they all turn out after I paint them. I am glad I have some patio paint left over!
Wishing everyone a great week end!
