A method for molding plastic articles with artistic patterns comprises: producing an artistic surface (10) by laying up stones, or masonry (12), or by any other suitable method, conforming a curable plastic mat (16) to the artistic surface (10); and subsequently curing the curable plastic mat (16) into a cured negative (24) of the artistic surface (10). Optionally, the cured negative (24) is curved prior to making a plaster positive (38). The present invention also includes a window-well egress (90) that is more attractive because of an artistic surface (96), and is stronger by virtue of inner (92) and outer (98) walls with a space (102) therebetween, and ribs (108), or corrugations (110) on the outer wall (98).
