Concrete art and design - Made easy!
The Concrete Concrete Easy Make Kit allows you to marble and cast concrete objects in the comfort of your home! It includes everything you need to get started in the wonderful world of concrete art and design. No special tools or space is required with the Easy Make, just follow the instruction and in 24 hours you will make your very own amazing concrete objects.
Our Easy Make Concrete Kit has everything you need to make a marbled concrete cactus planter and a couple hex tiles or coasters.
What does your funding provide?
We have developed a great prototype and we're now ready to run production. We want to make a nice box, add printed instructions, and give you easy to use packaging. In order to do so, we need a minimum production run of over 1000 units to do printing, mold making, and custom bagging. This helps us keep the price accessible for you!
Grey Matter - Our specially designed mix is super strong and cures incredibly fast! Grey Matter was design for the rigorous needs of Concrete Cat art studio, they've been happily using it for over 3 years. Grey Matter is one of the most advanced concrete mix designs available to the average consumer in user friendly packaging and quantities.

Measuring and Mixing cups - We take the guess work out of measuring your materials to make your life easy. Perfect measurements gives you perfect castings.
