Make your own garden rocks

12 years ago

Somebody's blog I browsed on showed where she made her own rocks to outline or edge her flowerbeds. If I recall correctly, she mixed the concrete(Quickcrete in a heavy plastic bag, and molding it into a rock, when it was molded into the shape she wanted, she put it out for the sun to dry it so it would harden.

I have also seen molds to make your own bricks, cobblestone walks,etc. Has anyboyd tried these molds and where do you buy them from?

sometimes called Chemical Garden or Crystal Garden, are a product that includes a small packet of multicolored 'rocks' and some 'magic solution'. You scatter the rocks at the bottom of a glass container, add the magic solution, and the rocks grow into magical-looking chemical towers within a day. It's crystal-growing at its finest for people who prefer not to wait days/weeks for results.
