Stamped concrete is a good way to create a beautiful patio or retaining wall without the cost or labor of real rock. The
retaining wall looks like a delicate, meticulously dry stacked stone wall. However it’s actually a bomb proof concrete
wall with a stamped surface. It can be used on any vertical surface such as ugly foundations, raised flower gardens or even
a fence.
The wall was built of 6" x 6" x 16" hollow blocks on a hand poured foundation. Then
I stretched chicken wire over the wall and trowled on my favorite mix type "S" Spec Mix. You can read about it by

The cap stones are hand sculpted and the wall is done with a concrete stamp.
