Decorative concrete can be comprised of many different applications, it can be painted on to create a fuax finish, or precut pieces of concrete laid in a decorative pattern. There are many different outcomes you can get from the decorative concrete techniques. It?s all up to you and your personality!

The technique that I?m going to tell you about will take that ugly, gray concrete and make it look like brick. This technique looks great on steps and walkways, but can be used anywhere. It is also very simple and inexpensive!

You will only need a few supplies. First you will need ?? thick masking tape. Four to five rolls will usually cover a ten by ten flat area so judge how much you need accordingly. You will also need rulers, a piece of tag board, painting sponges, and your desired paint colors. You can ask your local paint store person for what type of paint works best on the type of concrete you have.

Once you have your supplies gathered, the first thing you need to do is create a guide for your ?bricks?. Decide how large you want your bricks, I have found that a 3 x 6 rectangle looks most natural.
