| This is a very interesting site, of which I am having fun reading!!
I want to try my first project at making a small planter. I like the porous look very much versus the smooth texture. What recipe of a mixture would I use to accomplish this look? Thanks for any suggestions... |

| Use a peat moss recipe. Do not sift the peat moss. After unmolding, gently wire brush to give it a rough texture. The chunks of peat moss will wash out and give a porous look. |

| I am under the impression to get a less grey look the best way to go is get white cement vs the common grey. |
