This method of creating and constructing ARTIFICIAL ROCK has been used successfully for many years. Using our recipes for artificial rocks. Its basic design is by utilizing recycled products such as building rubble to create solid mounds with concrete then poured over the mounds as a fastener and a rockmaking mortar surface then placed over the concrete to shape and texture into a very realistic boulder or boulders. I have used other mounding materials when building rubble has been unavailable such as...small pieces of quarry rock, roadbase loosely mixed with neat cement, glass bottles and soil fill. The idea of using these materials is that it keeps the cost of handmaking your own solid fake rock way down and an unbeatable alternative.

At the time of writing the average cost of a 3ftx3ft or .75x.75cm handmade boulder will cost around $40.00aus and once you know how you can make as many artificial rock features as you like.

This fake rock technique is the one you can use to make your own unique artificial rock staircases, steptreads and stepping stones, fake stone ponds and water surrounds and artificial rock waterfalls, fake boulder gardens and really, so many individual creations that can redefine the way you look at your current and future garden designs.

You wont need expensive tools nor materials to get finishes like this. This photo shows in close up detail just how realistic a fake rock surface can be with the help of a few layers of sand coloring and some household acrylic paint.
