| Hello
We have always wanted to make stepping stones and last week we finally did for our beloved dog's memory garden. I pick up a kit and extra plastic forms (easy way but expensive to me!). I know I have seen somewhere on the forum where
Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated!

| I have made stepping stones using the big bag of cement mix that you would buy in a home store...I think it costs about 4.00 and i made at least 5 stones from each bag I bought colors to add to the cement from a craft store and bought different molds at about 4 dollars each. I also got alphabet letters that you can stamp any words into the stone. (only problem was that I developed a sore arm from stirring the cement that summer!!! haha ) |
