Just an FYI if you intend to do this project on your own there is a mistake in the main instructions that was not addressed. The plastic wrap does not go over the leaf, it goes under it and over the sand.
THIS IS SO COOL AND I SEE BEHIND YOU THAT YOUR GARDEN LOOKS VERY NEAT. DID YOU DO A TOUR OF IT? I WOULD LOVE ONE. THANKS FOR SHARING.
WOW, interesting video, I'm going to try this..
Love your apron
From the demonstration the plastic wrap was up against the concrete...on the sample the leaf was up against the concrete...which should it be?
Love this!!!!!
In your demonstration, you applied the quickcrete onto the plastic wrap with the leaf underneath. But when you unmolded the leaf that you made 48 hours ago, the plastic wrap was on top of the sand and the quickcrete directly on the leaf. Does it matter?

If you put the plastic on top of the leave every little wrinkle on that plastic will show up on the end product. I would put the plastic under the leaf for best results.
I enjoyed this video.
Your autumn leaf was beautiful... would these be strong enough to use as a stepping stone? Is there anything else you would do differently in making one into a stepping stone?
Awesome!! Thanks! ❤️❤️
This is so cool
Do not let it dry out for a week. Instead keep it moist under plastic for a week. Concrete needs moisture in order to harden properly.
Great
thanks beautiful
ATTENTION ALL VIEWERS: PLEASE NOTE THERE IS A HUGE MISTAKE IN THIS VIDEO THAT IS IGNORED AND NOT ADDRESSED. This video bypasses a huge mistake and does not come back to address or correct it nor is there any editing to explain and if you haven't done any casting chances are you won't notice it. When you are laying the plastic wrap down, the platic wrap goes over the sand, the leaf goes onto the plastic wrap and then the concrete goes directly on the leaf, that is not what is shown in the video yet at the end when the finished leaf is shown it is in the correct order. To the poster of this video, you did not come back in at any point and explain why you changed the positioning of the plastic wrap. My guess would be when you checked it after filming you realized you screwed up and should have put the plastic UNDER the leaf and not OVER it as the second casting would have just been textured wrinkles from the plastic wrap and defeat the entire purpose. I genuinely hope YOUR MISTAKE hasn't cost viewers time and money. It's perfectly okay to make mistakes, it's not okay however to ignore them when you are making a DIY instructional video. You should have edited this video to acknowledge your mistake in the order of your instructions. I hope this comment can at least alert others so they don't make the same mistake you did.

Thank you for pointing this out! I missed that until I read your comment and checked the video and you are quite right. This would have cost me.

Well maybe if the lady in the blue blouse had quit talking and left the presenter alone, she would have done it. Blue blouse lady, be quiet.

How about do a video. Your explanation of the mistakes is more confusing than beneficial.
I've noticed some other videos on KZread add peat moss to their mixture, its it strong with just water,sand and cement, do they crack eventually.

Peat moss will interfere with capturing the details on the leave IMO.
this accent is so beautiful
