How to Seal Stepping Stones

Making personalized stepping stones from a concrete mixture and mold is a great family project. Each member of the family's stone can become a long-lasting memento when they are incorporated into a garden area or set on a pathway. To keep the personalized decorations from becoming worn, a sealer can be applied to the surface of stepping stones. Protecting the surfaces of purchased stepping stones with a sealer application is also a good idea.
