Love this Concrete hands Decor?

Here are the materials you need to complete this project are:
-A pair of surgical gloves,
-A spatula for mixing concrete,
-Two large buckets,
-A pair of scissors,
-And some succulent plants.




What next?
Step 1.  Lay out your rubber gloves on a table surface palm side up with the thumbs facing out.  With a pair of scissors, cut along the pinky finger edge of each glove creating a slit that runs alongside the hand (about 3 inches long).

Step 2.  Lay your gloves beside each other with the slit sides facing each other.  Cut a strip of duct tape and seal the palm sides of each glove together, being careful to make a tight seal along the edges of the two gloves.  Then, flip the gloves over and tape the top slits of each glove together.  When you’re finished your two gloves will have become “one”.

Step 4.  Put on your latex gloves to protect your hands.  Scoop your concrete mix into your rubber gloves.  Be sure to work the concrete into the fingers of the glove.  Don’t over stuff the palms, as they should appear cupped as a final product.

Step 5.  When your gloves are filled, you will place them gently into another bucket, using towels to support them while they cure in the position you desire.

Step 6.  Allow your concrete hands to cure for 4-5 days.  Then, carefully remove the rubber gloves with scissors and/or a small utility knife.

Your concrete hands are now ready to use!  We hope you enjoy your new DIY garden creation!
