Creating stones is great fun for young and old, because the stones can be decorated in many different ways. In our example, we have used stencils and mineral sand to transform self-cast concrete stones into maritime jewellery.
The stones are first poured by yourself. To do this, mix concrete with a little water to a creamy mass, which you pour into the mould. After 12 hours of drying time, remove the stones from the mould. Sharp edges or unclean surfaces can be removed with Sandpaper can be edited
Protect your work surface with newspaper or a DIN A4 die StencilThe stone that you want to use is wetted from the back with spray glue and placed on one of the cast stones. The individual surfaces of the Stencil are brushed with mosaic glue. You should hold them Stencil with one hand so that they do not slip. Now sprinkle the mineral sand into the still wet glue. Tip: To obtain straight lines, you can maskAdhesive tape the mosaic with Stone masking tape. The stones can also be covered with natural stones and shells or decoratedPearl with a pen. In this way you can gradually cover all stones with the Sand and matching templates. The surplus caSandn be simply filled back into the can later
Important: The stencils and brush should be cleaned under clear water immediately after use.
