Creating with concrete is easier than most do-it-yourselfers imagine, and the results can be spectacular and practical. With beautiful photography, Easy Concrete makes the material truly inviting, and the simple instructions cover everything from creating molds out of cardboard, wood, and metal to using hypertufa-a versatile type of concrete made with peat moss. There is also helpful guidance on adding the perfect finish and decorative details. With 43 projects that include outdoor pots, candleholders, garden benches, and a compost bin, this is the perfect introduction to a highly useful craft. Library Journal Swedish author Skote presents 43 utterly charming and clever concrete projects using, e.g., decorative plates as molds, colored concrete, different textures, and other elements to encourage creativity. Alan Wycheck's recent Concrete Crafts, featuring better instruction, would be a good companion to this fun if overly simplified book.
