- Mosaic stepping stones are great projects for beginners.
- The easiest way to make a mosaic stepping stone is to pour concrete
into a mold and put mosaic tiles, stones, marbles or china fragments in the
surface of the concrete while it is still wet.
- Plastic dish pans and plastic 5-gallon buckets make good molds for
concrete stepping stones.
- Pour the concrete so that it is 2 inches thick, then push the mosaic
tiles into the wet concrete.
- You can use all sorts of random materials in addition to mosaic
tiles: marbles, pieces of broken bottles and dishes, gemstones,
etc. Buy a few mosaic tiles, and then spend a week looking for
other materials to use with the tile.
- Seal the stone with concrete sealer after it has hardened for a few
days.
- Don't put too many mosaic tiles and glass pieces in the surface of the
stepping stone, or it will be slippery when wet.
- Make your own design in your stepping stone. In my opinion, most of the
stepping stone kits from
stained glass stores are boring, and the designs look like they were
made in the 1970's.
