Toadstools and Mushrooms
Simple cement shapes
Build simple garden sculpture using cement and a combination of molds then cover it with mosaic. Create mushrooms small or large whatever shape you want using a combination of molds.
First class is all about making the cement mushroom; we start by choosing a casting mold for the top mushroom cap and one for the bottom mushroom stem. After molds are chosen we prep the molds, mix the cement and pour the cement into the molds. We will also start cutting the mosaic pieces to be used in the following class. If you are using a pattern or a design on your mushroom it can be arranged at this time too.
The second class is applying the mosaic pieces to the cement form and the third class is grouting the mosaic.
