grannysgarden said:When my boys were young I gave them a summer project. I cut off the bottoms of plastic five gallon buckets and challenged them to make round stepping stones about two inches thick. They has six nice bucket bottoms and would mix once a week and let them cure before turning them out. I still have those stones. Maybe sixty or so.


Excellent thinking there, Bonnie! I tip my hat to you.

I have been contemplating making my own stepping stones and matching stones for lining the beds, but want to use coloured cement in the mix and give them an uneven surface to make them look like those [censored!] expensive sandstone flagstones I have been foolish enough to fall in love with...

...thinking of the mess I would be making while trying this kind of makes me want to have a go! Big Grin
Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice!
