What kind of concrete do you use for crafting small things?

I want to make some cake stands and some ornaments and candle holders. I don’t want gravel in the mixture. What is available?

Hey Tara! I'd recommend a craft cement like t his.
Hi Tara. I'm Cindy. I watch a lady on You Tube. Her name is Helen Wyatt. She does all kinds of stuff with Portland Cement. She adds sand to her concrete and then, of course, water. I have seen a few other cement projects on line and have learned that you can use "casting cement" for small projects. Hope this helps you. Good luck Tara.
Hi Tara: Here are a couple of sites that may help:

I know, they look similar:) but they're not.
Good luck and happy crafting!
I used quick setting cement for these little planters for exactly the reasons you have stated and it worked really well
