Fill the sheet pans with mortar. You will want to add one layer of mortar, then some chicken wire, then more on top of the chicken wire.

Step Four

Allow the mortar to dry in the pans for a day and a half, then remove the stones you’ve made from your pans.

Paint the stones however you would like, then cover them in a sealer and polyurethane and let them dry again. You can water the paint down to allow it to soak into the stones more.
