This is an out of the way diversion and (most definitely) should be place to stop if you are considering any type of concrete statuary, fountain, etc. If you can dream it...they probably have it. This location is their manufacturing location and they sell both wholesale and retail here. There is another location closer to the interstate which (I believe) is retail only.
We stopped by here on a visit from southern Indiana to look for some concrete lawn gnomes. We had purchased one many years ago from a place between Evansville and Terre Haute. In doing some research (looking for concrete wholesalers) I found the Concrete Lady.
Definitely out of the way but easy enough to find. We pull in park in the front and you can't miss the signs telling you to check into the office. When you go to the desk they give you a roll of plastic tape with a unique color code and a huge price/location book. What you are told is walk thru the area and tape off what you want. When it comes time to pick up, you go back to the office and they have you drive out to the location and staff will help you load up. Pretty simple!
The selection is absolutely MASSIVE and organized by relevant themes. For instance, all of the gargoyles are grouped, gnomes, fountains, animals, etc. to make it easy to find what you want. For each item in the price sheet, there is a corresponding "painted" statue or piece with the lettering painted on it. For example, "Indiana University Cheering Gnome" might be categorized under "CCC-76" and you would find a single painted "Indiana University Cheering Gnome" along with 5 or 6 unpainted ones for sale. (These painted items are not for sale but just to indicate location on the grounds.) I didn't ask but presume if they didn't have 50 "Indiana University Cheering Gnomes" for you to take home they would make more. Assuming they keep all the molds for these...
Prices are terrific. You could easily spend several hours wandering the property looking for stuff. A lot of fun to visit and look around. read more
