1   Empty, clean drink cartons are ideal moulds as they are laminated and therefore can withstand wet concrete. Cut off the top bit of the carton. Firmly press shapes and mirrored letters, cut from self-adhesive foam rubber, onto the inside of the carton.

2   Concrete mixture: Mix 6 parts of Concrete craft powder to 1 part of water. Mix well and leave for approx. 2 min.

3   Pour the concrete mixture into the mould and leave for approx. 5 min. NB! Contrary to papier-mâché moulds, it is not necessary to coat this mould with cooking oil prior to casting. You may choose to do so, in order to easily release the moulded shape when dry.

4   Push a metal candle holder for either long candles or for tea lights into the concrete mixture. Leave to dry for 24 hours.
