Instructions No. 2490
Instructions No. 2490     Difficulty: Beginner  Working time: 5 Hours

This impressive decoration is perfect for spring. The mushrooms and snails were cast from concrete and decorated with mosaic stones and pouring colours. Learn how to recreate the decoration in this tutorial.

Schnecke und Pilz auf Beton

Casting figures

Spray the moulds with baking and release spray beforehand. This makes it easier to remove the castings from the mould later.

Mix the concrete with water to a creamy mass and pour it into the moulds. Important: Leave about 2-3 mm of space at the top of the mould. This makes it easier to remove the casting from the mould after it has dried.

You will need the following quantities of concrete:
Casting mould "Snails": 15 tablespoons
Casting mould "Mushrooms": 8 tablespoons

Tap the filled mould on the surface a few times so that the air bubbles rise. After approx. 12 hours drying time, the castings can be carefully removed. Smooth the edges with sandpaper.

Decorate the snail with mosaic

Chop up the mosaic with the mosaic tongs and glue the pieces onto the snail shell. To do this, simply apply some mosaic glue to the base and lay the mosaic pieces as you like.

Spread the joint filler between the mosaic stones so that they are completely filled in, creating an even surface structure. Due to the high-quality acrylic-polymer dispersion, the joint filler hardens like glass and is weather-resistant after approx. 4-6 hours drying time.

Colouring mushrooms with Pouring

To colour, pour the desired Pouring colours directly from the bottle over the mushroom heads. Swirl the mushrooms slightly back and forth so that the colours blend into each other. Allow to dry.

Arrange everything

Once the figures are finished, they can be decorated on the tree discs together with moss and dried flowers. Use craft glue to fix them in place.
