Blah!

I have come to the realization... I am absolutely no good at rockscaping! any tips?

 

[Khij159753]

I try a few things. Start with the biggest piece and branch off that. Or just kinda drop in the rocks and shift them where they land. I find if you don't really try hard it will turn out good or at least give you a really good foundation where you can shift a few rocks and make it just what you want.

I'm finding it a lot harder to find that "perfect spot" for the rocks since I'm trying to silicone (which is a pain in itself) them together... It's not working well...

When I do it I think the same think but my wife thinks it looks great. It takes me days to finally decide if I like it lol. Put them in then change it then change again and so on and so on. Your not alone

 

[Mommaof4boys]

How can I change them if I glue them together? Lol

 

[Khij159753]

I'd start without glueing it. And glue it once you find a way you like.

Never done that before lol hit them with a hammer so they break apart

You're definitely not alone...... Mine's been up & running for a few months, and I'll still go in and move a rock or two around.

Lol haha Then I believe I would have little bits of rock!

 

[Mommaof4boys]

I think I'm going to say forget the silicone.... I like the thought of them not falling but I don't like the idea of them being a pain to reposition!

 

[Phranque]

I'd agree.... just set up the rocks where they naturally lock in together. I'm also guilty of hammering a few pieces that I wasn't happy with.

I didn't say hit it with a sledgehammer lol just enough to break them loose. I've seen your rocks ain't they a nice size cause I really don't think you can hit it that hard to make them shatter.


See how easy it is to stack rocks

Lol
