The Elite Sixteen: An Introduction

An Introduction | Etsy Shop Studio HR

When you hear the word concrete, your first impression might be a city job site where the men wear yellow hardhats, cranes are moving material, jackhammers are pounding away + concrete is being mixed in a big drum. But move over concrete structures + foundations - you no longer have to stare at your foundation to enjoy the beauty of concrete in the home. This commonly used construction material has different formulas to create different finishes + is actually very beautiful. Holly of Etsy shop StudioHR has harnessed this stone-like quality of cement in her sculptural home decor items. Using a formulation that results in a smooth finish, Holly then seals her concrete sculptures + finalizes the work with a round of beeswax for added protection. Holly transforms this sometimes rough material into functional pieces of art that you can enjoy everyday!
