I make them upside down. Putting the form on a plastic sheet, as you do, I put the glass beads in the bottom of the form and pour concrete over them. The next day, I flip the paver and expose the beads with a diamond cup in an angle grinder. It only takes about one minute, with lots of dust, but it cuts both the concrete AND the glass, exposing a larger cross-section of the beads. They are so firmly embedded, I have never had any beads come loose in over a year, with seasonal temperature extremes.
Sounds like that may dull the glass
This would be so cool using glow-in-the-dark pebbles!
Love it!
Yes

Wow!! What a great idea!! I have some too!! Probably not enough. But a great 💡 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
THERE ARE GLOW IN THE DARK PEBBLES 🤯😍💜
The OCD part of me is saying "STOP, JUST STOP", but the edging made up for it! LOL - I have to say, they turned out absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much for the video!
Always nice to see a man with huge experience, no need to prove smth... In comparison with the others. He just knows what he is doing, and he's doing it good
I concur

I like the cold open to the video. Nice change of pace.
Yeah we like to try new things out once in awhile
I just made two more of these pavers today. I'm using 2 nested 2 mil 18 gallon trash compactor bags as a mixer - easy clean up - all the paper and extra concrete goes in the bag afterward. Walmart has bags of the glass beads for $1. Three bags is enough for a river on two pavers. I was using the sealer you show but when the quart went dry, I balked at paying $50 for a gallon at Home Depot so I picked up a can of Seal Krete Wet Look spray for $12 at Lowe's. Easy to apply! Looks good! Only covers 25 square feet, but no clean up is a plus and no roller needed.
Nice system
This would be a great project for someone who wanted to do a small patio or a walkway but didn't want to spend the money to hire a crew to do it for them. With just a few forms, minimal tools and of course the concrete they could make all the pavers they needed at their own convenience and lay it themselves. Seems like a great project to get the kids involved with also.
I think its a great project for that
Loving every minute of these videos Dave. Thank you so much man 👍👏
Just came upon your channel. You and your crew are very conscience and know your craft. I confess I'm a weird woman who likes to learn all sorts of things about construction, etc. I love working hard physically, it's rewarding, keeps you young and alive, (BTW I'm 59 YO, a Vet and retired LEO).You have something to show for your daily efforts., God's work. Love learning and how you explain materials and techniques. God bless you and your crew.
Great
Thanks Carmen
Looks great!!!!
Now my wife wants the same thing done in the back yard walk way😩
But thank you for the tips!!!🤙🏼💪🏼
You da man!!!!
😂🤣😅
🤣🤣
My guy said "at the Goodwill"! 🤜🤛 ✌️🙌 Thrifters for life baby!
That's the key
Love the video, you are so easy and fun to watch. Thanks for helping us out - this is awesome!
I like this idea. I would love to see how it looks with coloured concrete or a LED light strip fitted under the glass pebbles.
Awesome idea
solar powered panel
I have thought about underlit stained glass on stepping stones for literally years. Just not sure how to keep the structural integrity of the stone to be able to use it AS a stepping stone....
Great idea! 👍
Oooohhhhh! Light strip! I love that idea ❤❤❤❤
Your video answers all my questions .
Looking forward to doing mine .
Like the way you did the two samples less drying time and more just what I needed .
Thanks a million

Nice find at Goodwill to get a whole bag of those glass stones for a dollar! Love them in the concrete!
Looks awesome, thanks for sharing
Thank you for taking the time to teach us. I am grateful.

Another fine video project O’Dell. 💯

You make concrete work in to a work of art.
ty
Fancy step there! Thanks for another great idea! I'll put that gem in the bag.💎
Get it on
With the jewels
What a wonderful man to be so clear and precise with information and ideas!
TY
Great video. So easy to follow
Thanks. You are a good instructor.
Fun posting! Next, try various shells+colored rock and place just as you did with the glass beads. Then come back and grind/hone the surface to expose the shells. Incredible finished product when done. The more exotix the shells, the better!(AKA terrazzo)
Those are so nice and precise looking. Great job !!
Thanks
David, you are a rock star with cement young man. I could watch you make pavers all day. Lol. Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise with us. Sherie Rodrigues from Australia, again.😮
nice stones, It remeinds me of the ones from this other job wher you used blue glass and they also looked really cool and gives a nice touch overall to the project 😀😀
Thank you! Cheers!
It seems like blue is always a great shade for concrete. I wanna try ts
That looks so beautiful. Thank you for sharing this ideas.
YW
Very cool work!! If my wife saw this vid, "my honey-do" list would be huge...
I hear that
Wow... Amazing! So beautiful!! Thank you for share! 🐉🐉🐉

Beautiful and very creative. Thanks for sharing. I appreciate it very much. 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Thank you so much 💓

What a beautiful job you did on these. Among my many 'weirdnesses' is that I love concrete. I can dream up so many things to make. These are inspiring, I must say. Thanks for sharing this project. I'm subscribing so I can see more.
Great
TY

Oh good! Then I am not too crazy. My paternal grandfather was a mason so my father taught us to add embellishments to concrete. Concrete is amazing and pretty much permanent.
It's very beautiful!
This is so cute!🎉
That's cool Dave. I like some of those Goodwill buys myself. I once bought a huge bag of swivel ball bearing casters for $5. I like the stepping stone idea!
Get lucky sometimes.
TY

Ha! Mapgie clients, the shiny staff lovers will want these. Good addition to your huge scope of tools.
Later in episodes: This washed concrete surface is made of 20% marbles / 80% usual pebbles & processed with 50%/50% magic thing. ))
Thanks for sharing interesting idea!
They are beautiful...might have to try a few!
Please do!
You are an artist
I LOVE finding things in thrift shops. Ive had some great finds. I like looking in skips too.
Awesome
I like the river one best.
Me too
TY
Awesome idea, thanks for sharing. I'm going to do a few with my daughter and one day she can take one for her place.
Good idea
Love the idea 😍♥️🙏🍀🌹🤗
TY
LOVE THEM!!!
TY
I love this idea
TY
Very cool looking !
Ty
That looks great. A large 'wave' shape using the blue glass would look awesome, inspired by the famous painting.
Yes
TY
That’s just beautiful.
Ty
That’s just so beautiful ❤❤❤
TY
Thanks love your ideas and work .
TY
These are available at the local Dollar Tree, I wanted to try them. Glad to see this video!
GL
Really like how these turned out . . .

Nice idea. I make smaller stones using candy boxes, especially heart shaped ones. Paper boxes are a one time use, but you can use metal tins if you coat the tin with petroleum jelly & waxed paper.
Awesome
I'm so glad, i found this channel!! I've been thinking about doing some concrete step stones in my back yard>> Keep up the great videos.
Thanks
GL
Great idea thanks for sharing 😊
You are so welcome!
Que maravilhoso ficou linnnnndo
Amazing I need to try this on small things!!! Wow!!!
Go for it
Awesome job sir!! 👍
Thank you kindly!
Great idea!
Glad you think so!
I like this guy. Thanks man.
You're welcome
Fantastic 👍👍
Thank you! Cheers! 8,500
DUDE! you're use of voice over while the video is in quicktime... GENIUS! and this is such a rad idea. I'm going to do some cool arts and crafts pavers this weekend!! INSPIRING!
Awesome good luck
I really enjoy your videos brother appreciate you sharing your skills. I ended up making 20 of these for my back yard fence line. The county does not allow me to pour concreate within 3 ft from my fence line so I decided to make these for all my vase base plants and it looks amazing. I literally have them all the way down my fence line with 1 vase on each holding a plant. So it looks great and does not effect me on county code because it's a removable structure.
Way to go. Nice idea.
TY
For sharing
Very cool!
My grandfather was a mason. Any time my dad was pouring concrete, some embellishments went in. So glad he taught us techniques. Glass is a perfect media to use out doors.
I concur
TY
Liked and subscribed. I've been in the trenches on many a pour down through the years. Looking forward to learning more from you. Thanks, D.
Great, welcome aboard

Glass nuggets, my favorite! I used to incorporate them into stained glass lampshade and windows.
Nice
Awesome idea!
ty
Thank you for your video.
Love them!!

@@OdellCompleteConcrete Yw 😊
Totally awesome thank you!
YW
ty
Wow thanks for showing how to do that :) I've learned from working with clay that if you want even more shimmer from your glass beads, to put something reflective behind them, like foil. It would take a lot more time but if ur doing a small project it would be really cool. Im not sure how it would survive in concrete tho
How about recessed lighting
@@OdellCompleteConcrete ohhh 😲 that would be so pretty...
Goodwill I love it!
Me too!!
