Moreland Creations began in a modest workshop in Wooster, Ohio on Moreland Road
and has since moved to a larger workshop. Located in the rolling hills of mid
Ohio, this country setting is the perfect setting for creative garden ideas that
are sure to impress! Please read more about
my hypertufa containers, browse my website, and please contact me!
There will be more pictures and information in the near future!
Also you will even be able to order containers online!
Hypertufa is a man made substitute for Tufa rock.
Tufa is a spongy cellular rock found in limestone country
and especially where water has been involved in the
wearing and leaching out of the original materials
to effect a porous spongy consistency.
In many countries throughout the world this natural stone
has for centuries been hollowed out and carved for tubs and planters.
One of the obvious advantages of the material for me
is its versatility. It can be used for tubs, pots, troughs,
steps, benches, sculptures, seats, stepping stones and bird
baths. When properly surface treated it gives the appearance
of great age and ruggedness. No special tools are required
and if you are prepared to give it a go yourself they are
inexpensive and entirely original.
I will be at the Country Living Fair at Ohio Village, Columbus Ohio on Sept 12,13,14, 2008
showcasing my hypertufa containers.
