D. Before You Begin
Please note once the cement powder is mixed with water, the resulting concrete
mixture will start to harden. Although this is a gradual process, always check the
condition of the concrete while mixing. Pour the moulding when the concrete
mixture is like a smooth paste, approximately 2-4 minutes after the powder is mixed
with water. If you are new to concrete mixing, it is recommended that you try a small
portion (50g concrete mix with approximately 20ml of water) to first experience how
the mixture develops and hardens.
D1. Mixing The Concrete
Use a mixing bowl, a stirring utensil, and approximately 200-240ml of water. Cut open the bag of
concrete mix and pour it into the mixing bowl.
Gradually add the water while checking the state
of the paste. Stir the mixture gently while pouring
the water.
Note: Do not pour too much water in at once, as
this may make the mixture too runny to mould.
Depending on the atmospheric conditions, the
concrete mix (500g) will normally become a
smooth paste after adding approximately
200-240ml of water.
D2. Moulding
Place the mould on a level surface and carefully
pour the mixture into its cavity. Gently agitate the
mould to release air bubbles. As it will take a day
for the concrete to dry, be sure to place the mould
in a location where it will not be moved or otherwise disturbed.
D3. Decorating The Stone
As it is very difficult to move or rearrange objects
once they have been set in the concrete, we recommend that you draft your design before you start
to decorate the stepping stone. After pouring the
concrete mix, wait 10 minutes to apply the mosaic
pieces, glow star, and glass stones to the stone. If
you want to write words on your stone, allow the
concrete mix to harden around 20-30 minutes
more. At that stage, the stone will not be too soft
or too runny to add words. Use the carving tool
provided or a toothpick to carve any words you
like. You may need to go over the words with a
carving tool or a toothpick several times before
they are deep enough. If the stone is still too wet,
wait for a few minutes, and try again. Finally
sprinkle the glitter on the stone and allow it to dry
completely. After 24 hours, remove the stone from
the mould and enjoy your work of art! Remarks: If
you find the stone has sharp edge, use the carving
tool or sandpaper to smooth the edge.
