Materials you will need: burlap, cardstock, ruler, X-Acto knife, computer, inkjet printer. 1  Measure out your piece of burlap to 8.5 by 11. Use the X-Acto knife to cut it. 2  Repeat with the card stock. 3  Use the masking tape to affix the burlap to the card stock. 4  Make sure your printer settings are set to Heavy Duty.
Ideally, concrete should be poured when the air temperature is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold temperatures slow the concrete-setting process, and when temperatures dip below freezing, the delay allows the water in the mix to freeze before the concrete hardens.
You can pour in cold weather, as long as certain precautions are taken. Concrete set time at 70 degrees is approximately 5 hours, at 50 degrees it is 10 hours, at 30 degrees itâs up to 20 hours (if the concrete doesnât freeze!).
