Tools + Materials
plastic garden pots, aluminum cake tins, buckets
petroleum jelly
cement mix
water
mixing bucket & stick
2x4
fresh leaves
1. Smear petroleum jelly on your mold, but keep in mind you may need to break it to remove the set stepping-stone.
2.
Pour wet concrete, mixed according to the package instructions, into the mold. Smooth the top of the concrete with a 2x4.
3. Lay fresh leaves face up on the wet concrete and gently press down.
4. Allow the concrete to set. After the concrete cures for a day or two, you can scrub away any leaf remnants to reveal the shallow relief design.
