Art-Concrete for Recycled Treasures
Art-Concrete for Recycled Treasures
Idea Description
I developed a material; Art-Concrete, a concrete-like texture that can be hand brushed or shaped onto almost any material surface and painted over. I use Art-Concrete and a process to petrify real fresh cut sunflowers and roses. Art-Concrete preserves the flowers rigid-hard to retain their original form, hand painted. I recycle used footballs, basketballs and soccer balls, deflate them and reshape them rigid-hard to their original form with Art-Concrete, no air. I use the rigid-hard sports balls as the main body of the base for making table lamps, named SportsLamp. Used lamp shades are cleaned and decoupage with matching sports pictures. The above crafts are only two with Art-Concrete.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
I will use the money to market Art-Concrete and buy a van to transport my crafts to crafts shows and or get a web site.

What color does ArtCrete dry? Sounds interesting. Good luck.
ArtCrete dry color is white, but it can be ajusted to most common colors.
