I have watched so many concrete stepping stone videos, and it seems everyone does it differently! Your video was very straightforward and simple. I'm glad you can just use the one type of Quikcrete - others mix this with straight cement sometimes and I am so confused about what kind of concrete to use! Also, I have many relatives in Ontario, so listening to you brought a smile to my face. Hugs from Ohio! Thanks, Marina.
Thank you for so many reasons. You made it simplistic, you make it fun and all of your pieces turned out really really pretty. I've been looking through pavers/stepping stones and so on for a while. Some of them are so complicated that it's just not worth what I want to do. So, thank you again you did a great job and I'm going to pass this onto my granddaughters and maybe their kids to do as fun projects.
You did such a great job! Thank you so much for being so detailed and showing us the different styles and with & without the coating. I’m in love with the rock people, but they were all beautiful 🥰✨
I decided to look into making my own stepping stones after the ones at the big box store were falling apart, and I saw the high price of decorative ones. Thanks so much for giving me some guidance about how to address this. You make it look very do-able.
I love this! Thank you for the instruction and step by step. I saw someone talking about doing this with their children’s foot prints every year so it looks like a pathway of their child growing up 😢 love the painted rocks also!
thank you very helpful...I hate to waste good material...its just attentive to mankinds creative potential and respect for Mother Nature...not to put every leftovers in landfills... anything can be re-used and used to make beautiful things out of it....THANK YOU AGAIN..found you channel ...it was very invigorating...I needed that..to go on with my artisic way... love from Germany :)
These are beautiful! Thanks for sharing the process. You covered so many of the things to know that I had questions about. Now I have the confidence to give it a go. 🤗
Beautiful! My question, concrete in its very nature, is not adhesive. You haven’t found that the decorations come loose and fall off? Coating the “stones” in with mortar and wiping it off the surface only leaving it in between to make sure they stay stuck is what I am told must be done. I haven’t actually made any similar to this, myself. I’ve only worked with free form concrete for decorative stone edging and a few silicone molded pieces. So I am just trying to learn everything I can before taking on anything like this.
As long as the stones or glass are set deep enough with enough concrete around the edges they will stay in there. All of my stones/glass are still set and they have been in the garden the whole time.
Patti, you have made amazing and beautiful cement stepping stones. I love all of them ❤❤😊. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work. I can't wait to make some myself. Thanks for your excellent information on making them. I very much appreciate it all. Thanks again 😊
It's about the sane price depending on the result you expect to achieve. You won't need to much sand to have some tint to the project and with colored cement it will fe more of a full color. But you can also dye regular sand from the beach with things found in the woods, i.e. bake a batch of blueberry juice and soak the sand for a week before setting out in the sun to dry. Can't exactly dye cement untill after its used and mite make mistakes easy, so I'd avoid that altogether. Loved the painted rocks, I plan to do glow stones and or glow sand when I attempt my projects. Looking to make fire bricks decorative on the outside of a fire pit. Same type of project just add perlite 14 parts, 2 parts sand, 2 parts cement. And the chicken wire also great idea to add to the fire bricks as they break easy when dropped.
i like the rock people one. because it looks more natural. some of the things used in stepping stones feel like..... idk, like that trend when people used a Bedazzler on *everything* or just some materials look a little cheap to me. that rock people one looks like artwork. it's the simplicity but also the really interesting shapes picked and the monochromatic shades. (i'm not bagging on the other ones, hope it doesn't sound that way. i'm an artist so i overanalyze everything. really liked the spiral idea, and the clear bead things on the edge look interesting - picturing what a stepping stone that was mostly those would look like.) thanks for your really great instructions!
Oh yes being an artist yourself you will be able to come up with lots of unique designs. Everyone has a different eye for what they like and that’s what keeps it interesting for sure. Thanks for comment and thanks for watching.
Oh my. I would have to go back and listen to my video. The concrete will harden in about 20-40 minutes. My test is looking at the cement after I have released it from the form. It will be lighter on the top and darker on the bottom if it is not completely dry. Sorry, I don’t remember a reference to your question. But the longer you leave the concrete or cement the more it will set up and be stronger.
I like her ideas, one thing I would do differently is put the design at the bottom of the pan and use a small amount of glue to hold them in place before you put the plaster/cement morter into the mold. This step also helps those pieces set into the finished product securely so they are less likely to come loose from walking on them, as that is usually what happens unless it's in a garden and not part of a pathway.
I did do a test and I tried placing pieces on the bottom of the pan first before adding the cement but when the stone is released I found that the cement seeped under pieces and they were covered with too much cement. I like adding the stones or embellishments on top of the cement as it gives me the chance to change the design if I want to. I have made many stepping stones and have never had a piece come lose so I prefer the method I demonstrated.
This step I use a bit of hot glue from a glue gun to do exactly that, I do want a small amount to hold the stones in place but not to much. The glue removes easy and heavy foot traffic won't make them come loose as fast. Good for path walks, not important for decorations that won't be stepped on. Like with flat glass thats harder to hold in place or seashells, less likely to Crack, shatter, and break if stepped on. God bless keep up the amazing projects, I'd love to see you make a bullet stove with some of those ideas applied to a fire brick morter recipe.
This was a wonderful video Mrs. Patti! I wanted to use some glass I had to make some stepping stones myself but they're not tumbled and I would like to if I can use them as is. However I'm worried that the glass would be to sharp and might cut my feet if I use them and they're not pushed down far enough. Do you have any ideas so that I'll still be able to use them?
For safety use some no cut gloves and then try and smooth your edges with some course sand paper. Or place the pieces of glass in the cement and then take a plastic spoon and try to neatly place additional cement around the edges of the glass, just enough to cover all sharp edges.
With white concrete, or pigmentation for the concrete, they would be truly beautiful. The gray atm detracts from the stepping stones' design, but still great nonetheless
Pigment for cement is costly so wanted to keep the price down for others wanting to try it out. Also the cement I used was very cheap compared to a white cement but you can can certainly use other cements or concretes if desired.
Hello, thank you for your tutorial. -Can you wash the concrete off the stones and glass before it dries? -I don't think I'd have the patience to brush and scrape it off like you did!
I would mix up a little concrete or cement and place it in where the object fell out and make sure the sides of the object are slightly covered in the concrete or cement so it doesn’t fall out again. Other than doing that usually epoxy glues will stick to cement but read the label to see what applications it can be used for. Or you can try gorilla glue. Again check label on package for application.
I'm watching your video on the stepping stones. I have a couple questions. Do you treat them with anything once they are done, like a sealant of some type? And are they able to be walked on? I would be concerned that shells would break if people were walking on them.
I didn’t treat mine but if you want more of a wet glossy look than put a coat of varnish on them. Make sure that any shells or decorative items are placed deep enough that they are secure and not raised high above the stepping stone edge. Although I have named these stepping stones they can also be decorative stones in your garden for the ones you don’t want people stepping on. The rock people stone I did would be great for stepping on.
If you use hard shells like clam shells and they are deeply embedded in the concrete than they will be fine. Same with the glass. Make sure it has smooth edges and is nicely embedded so on the surface of the glass is showing. I don’t wear high heels so not sure about that one.
Hello there 🤠 Amazing and very interesting project.. Super like 👌👌👌 Well explained.. Thanks for sharing and do keep posting new ideas 💡💡💡 Warm regards and best wishes The UnknownManCub 👍😎🧑🏭
Hi Patti, from Patti 😊. I’ve watched so many of these videos and they all stink. Thanks for taking the time to create this. 2 questions- if no one will be stepping on them, do you think the wire is necessary and what is the name of the round pan? Thanks in advance!
So glad you found me Patti with an i! Glad you enjoyed the video. You might be okay with no chicken wire. It just adds more strength and helps it to not break in half. It’s called a spring form pan.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Did you use sealant on the painted rocks? I've painted rocks and sealed them, but after a few months of being outside in the elements the paint wore off. What am I doing wrong?
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thank you for your quick response! Another question… sorry to be a pain. Can I use a acrylic white paint or do u have other suggestions? I’m totally new to this & so excited to try!
I see it's been a year, but never know unless you try. I see you used concrete with gravel in it. Is this what you recommend still? Or would you use Sand concrete? I went and bought two 80lb bags that were recommended by the employee there, but most of the diy videos suggest other cement/concrete.
My stepping stones have been in the garden the whole time and holding up really well. The concrete mix I used is really inexpensive so a good value and works just as well. If you want a smoother stone than by all means you can use the sand concrete. Both work.
That’s weird. I used the quick dry concrete as well so it’s not that. I had all different kinds of pans and they all slipped right out. If you are worried about trying it again you can always line the pan with parchment paper. I want you to have success!
The concrete is a lot cheaper and I don’t mind the extra texture with a few stones but if you want a smoother edge than you certainly can use cement as you suggested. Most of my concrete is covered with embellishments so you can’t see much of the concrete and they are set into the soil so you don’t see the edges.

Love ur videos...So talented
Thanks so much and thanks for watching!
You can also add colored sand to the mix to make the concrete have more vibrant colors for the project.
Yes, I looked into concrete colourant and it’s very expensive but perhaps the coloured sand is cheaper.
It's about the sane price depending on the result you expect to achieve. You won't need to much sand to have some tint to the project and with colored cement it will fe more of a full color.

Thank you!
That is sooooo cool!!!! What size of round mold do you use!!! Love them
I think they were 10” spring form pans but any size will work.
I really like all of your examples!
Did you mention that concrete is strongest when it is kept wet for the first 10 days?
Thanks for your great video!
Oh my. I would have to go back and listen to my video.
The concrete will harden in about 20-40 minutes.

Great designs. Have you ever used color in the concrete or are there colored concretes to mold?
Funny, I did think about it. I researched the colouring for cement and it’s not cheap so I decided not to feature it.
Excellent, thank you!
You are so welcome!
Wonderful. Can you leave them outside all winter?
Yes, you sure can. Mine stay in the garden. I don't bring them in.
This was a wonderful video Mrs. Patti! I wanted to use some glass I had to make some stepping stones myself but they're not tumbled and I would like to if I can use them as is.

Aaahh. Your too kind!
The Rock people are wonderful I always liked exposed aggregate I concrete
It’s my fav too!
Thank you!!!
You are very welcome!
Thanks crafty patty. Did you use a white paint on the little glass beads you added?
No, just on the beach glass pieces.
Hello, thank you for your tutorial. -Can you wash the concrete off the stones and glass before it dries? -I don't think I'd have the patience to brush and scrape it off like you did!
Yes, absolutely. The final cleaning just cleans up better.
What adhesive do you use when a decorative piece falls out?
I would mix up a little concrete or cement and place it in where the object fell out and make sure the sides of the object are slightly covered in the concrete or cement so it doesn’t fall out again. Other than doing that usually epoxy glues will stick to cement but read the label to see what applications it can be used for. Or you can try gorilla glue. Again check label on package for application.

Make sure that any shells or decorative items are placed deep enough that they are secure and not raised high above the stepping stone edge.
Although I have named
these stepping stones they can also be decorative stones in your garden for the ones you don’t want people stepping on. The rock people stone I did would be great for stepping on.
way cool!
Thanks. Glad you like them!
Very beautiful 🥰
If i use seeshells or glas..is ot not gonna break if someone walks on it ?
For example with sharper heels or hard shoe soles?
If you use hard shells like clam shells and they are deeply embedded in the concrete than they will be fine. Same with the glass. Make sure it has smooth edges and is nicely embedded so on the surface of the glass is showing.
I don’t wear high heels so not sure about that one.

Do you mind sharing what paint you use to paint the rocks?
I use acrylic paint.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Did you use sealant on the painted rocks? I've painted rocks and sealed them, but after a few months of being outside in the elements the paint wore off. What am I doing wrong?
Love your work! If you are buying sea glass or other stones in a craft store do you still need to spray paint the back of the stones?
For glass that you can see through it will help enhance the colour if you paint the back.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thank you for your quick response! Another question… sorry to be a pain. Can I use a acrylic white paint or do u have other suggestions? I’m totally new to this & so excited to try!
Acrylic white paint is fine.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

If you don’t want any stones in it than you can buy cement instead of concrete.
Sand mix
Yes u r doing a great job but stand on the other.side please so u dont block what we r looking at love the designs and your instruction r great 😁
Thanks for your comment. Yes , it’s a bit of a balance act with lighting, camera placement etc.
Love these
So many ways to decorate them too!
Instead of painting the glass, you could use white concrete. Good info here tho!
Thanks for the tip!
Do u just add white paint or food coloring?
Just acrylic paint. No food colouring.
mine got stuck in the cake pan😢
Did you spray your pans with oil before adding the concrete.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts yes, tons of pam. i used the fast setting quikrete though, maybe i should have used a different kind
That’s weird. I used the quick dry concrete as well so it’s not that. I had all different kinds of pans and they all slipped right out. If you are worried about trying it again you can always line the pan with parchment paper. I want you to have success!
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thank you for the tip!!
Next best thing is not sand paper, a pumice stone works much better and last much longer.
Yes, you are correct. Sandpaper does wear out pretty fast on the cement. The pumice stone is a great idea.
Thank you 😊
Thanks for the idea of the pumice stone. I will definitely be making some for my yard a bit larger. Can they be made in plastic also?
I would look better if u used cement u used concrete that has stones in it
The concrete is a lot cheaper and I don’t mind the extra texture with a few stones but if you want a smoother edge than you certainly can use cement as you suggested. Most of my concrete is covered with embellishments so you can’t see much of the concrete and they are set into the soil so you don’t see the edges.
Veri good
