When the days get shorter and it gets dark much earlier, your home should not lack atmospheric and cosy lighting. In this handicraft instruction we show you how you can make this glamorous decoration of concrete for your well-being place with little effort and material yourself.
For the beautiful concrete bowls you first cut open an old PET bottle above and pull a balloon over the opening. Mix the concrete with water according to the instructions on the product packaging. Now pour the resulting concrete mass into the balloon, pump it up with an air pump and tie the end of the balloon.
Now spread the concrete inside the balloon by rotating it. Let it dry for at least 24 hours
Tip: For drying, you can attach a string to the balloon and hang it on a clotheshorse, for example.
After the concrete mass has dried, open the balloon carefully with scissors and detach it from the concrete shell. To get the trendy "used look", break off some pieces of from carefully with your fingers from the top of the shell
For that special something, apply the Maya -Gold-paint inside the concrete shell. The Effect paint should be stirred well before use. Maya-Gold is applied with a dab sponge or a soft Flat brush in two steps. In the first step, Effect paint is applied thinly and over a large area. After the paint is completely dry, it is dabbed or spread on in the second step. Finally, place a small tea light or pillar candle in the middle of the bowl and your unique and shiny feel-good decoration is ready!
For glorious magic moments in your home
For the tea light glasses with the concrete stars, first mix kneaded concrete with water according tothe instructions on the product packaging.
