Nice. i watch a lot of videos of people making flower pots. Most of the pots are beautiful, then the creators ruin them with gaudy colors that complete with the colors of the plants or flowers they put into them. I prefer either the natural color of the cement or subtle colors like your brown and tan. I refurbished all of our old faded and sometimes cracked plastic pots 2 years ago for about 10% of what it would have cost to buy new ones. I repaired the broken ones and painted them all in shades of brown &/or tan or one or two shades of green. Many admirers ask me where I bought them. Now I am contemplating making some cement pots and I am certainly not going to paint them bright orange and purple.
Very nice and easy method. One suggestion is to put an 16 or 18 inch tile on top to level the to rim, keep the edge smooth. and keep it there for the drying process to keep the planter in shape.
@12:37 Wow! This project looks easy enough for me to try it. I have been wanting to get new planters for the front of our home but the prices are ridiculously high for cement planters. You have inspired me and I can't wait to give this a try. Thanks for sharing.
I did mine with Petemoss in place of the paper pulp. It keeps the planter from being heavy and I used a cardboard box and packing peanuts and a trash bag to make the planter look like a huge boulder, it is a much better look, and more realistic. I look like a superwoman when I move it around lol. Just be sure you do not make the cement mixture too runny. I did the first try with another box inside to make the chamber for the potting soil. it seems to work better than the hand-packing of the cement mixture. Poring is easier than placing the cement in by hand. Oh, and the center box was covered by another trash bag to avoid a soggy box. or just fill the bag with something to make a place for the soil. it was a lot of fun and my failures made great fake rocks and gravel so no waisted cement and Pete moss. I just put them around my trees to reduce evaporation to save water. good luck
Paper pulp- 3 parts per Portland Cement- 2 parts per Sand (l use all purpose type)- 1 part per Mix together well (can add more water if needed maybe?) Add to a saranwrapped/packing taped laundry basket, working it about an inch and a half thick+ Make hole for drainage Cover and let dry two days Remove tape all around but leave tape on underneath Smooth outer edges, where it caked onto basket weaves. Let dry completely- two more days? Peel tape off bottom Pour water (nit sure temperature, I'd say warm?) over bottom until pot is completely wet Carefully remove basket from cement Smooth top edges if desired Done! (Did my vbest considering the lack of directions)
this ended better than i thought it would have. WELL DONE! my two cents : after finishing paint, id add to the vertical and horizonal grooves left by the "mold" Vertical groove: fit wooden dowels from top to bottom (one dowel per groove) Horizontal groves: fit twisted twine or soft metal wire aound the pot (one per grove) this would give it a nice aesthetic and if done with strong materials, would reinforce the pot itself. keep up the good work!!!

Hi Char, thx for sharing this great idea! It was help if there was a list of items used. I wasn’t sure of some of the products you used (eg sanding block, type of paint).
Many years ago I did a lot of hypertufa.Same concept.@0 + years ago i covered an ole free standing sink with the hypertufa mix and it is still standing outside. I did bowls, troughs, a ball to use in a fountain and leaves to make bird baths. .Over working the tufa will make it less sturdy.
Try GLAD Press 'n Seal. The back of the plastic wrap is coated with a Post it Note "something". It will lightly stick to most everything. And, you can see through it!
Just found your channel because I was inspired to make some concrete projects and you mentioned Ron’s nursery in a prior video and I had to take a double take! I live on 6 street :)) Super excited to check out your videos and make some planters! Just have to get my hands on a mixing drill 💕
A big thank you: it's beautiful, a feasible idea. I need a planter and I have everything here. That's wonderful. Un grand Merci: c'est magnifique, une idée réalisable. J'ai besoin de jardinière et j'ai tout ce qu''il faut ici. C'est magnifique.
Lindo ,ótima idéia ,qBeautiful, great idea, how whimsical and, you just have to let it cure, leave your vase wet for 1 week, otherwise in 1 year the cement will crumble, you have to go through the cure
neat idea but can't see it lasting very long cause of paper rotting etc. Have you looked on here and seen people making aquariums using foam and cement brushed on you should do that when dry brush a layer of runny cement over the whole thing it will seal it and make it look better
Absolutely beautiful pot! Do you find that you can grow most anything in there or do thr pots dry out too quickly? Do your plants seem to do well in your pots? I LOVE THIS IDEA THANK YOU! 💕
I tried this, and now decided never to use paper pulp again for plant pots. Pot breaks , it has no strength to bear soil and after work of gardening. You can use this pot only for decoration purpose.
As long as you let them dry out slowly, they are very durable. If you take them out of the mold too soon, they can crumble because they haven't cured yet. Also, if you make them too thin, they can be fragile. I try to make mine at least 1 inch thick.
The end product is beautiful however, I could not make it to the end - I would be most appreciative if you would speed up the video when you are doing repetitive tasks. Thank you!
Shred paper with a paper shredder or rip newspapers junk mail etc. soak in a large bucket with water stir a couple days . Either use and old blender to purée or buy attachment from hardware store to mix cement with attach to a drill and whirl the paper then add your sand cement mix together again
Nice idea. Buy a solid basket and forego the cost of the tape! Would make the whole project go easier. Also a tip. This same idea could be applied to hypertufa.
I think she likes the lines. And besides you can get these baskets anywhere even a dollar store. Can’t say I’ve seen a solid one like that before, that size. I’m sure they exist but anything more rare (at least rare in Canada) will cost more then a dollar and a quarter 🤷🏼♀️
Help!! Papercrete won’t come out of the basket! I sprayed with canola, have scraped the outside and hosed down the outside. Other ideas before I cut the plastic form??
Thank you so much...👍
The prices of flower pots nowadays this is the answer,make our own.,,👍❤

No caso de usar isopor o molde deve ser todo fechado ou utilize um vaso de plástico

I use saran wrap and then packing tape, it comes right off.
No you dont
Far less expensive too
Do you use Quick Crete or Porters Cement? What ratio Cement to water do you use? Thanks 😊. I am fixing to try for the first time.
Very nice and easy method. One suggestion is to put an 16 or 18 inch tile on top to level the to rim, keep the edge smooth. and keep it there for the drying process to keep the planter in shape.
Seeing two pots, my heart became a garden.
I LOVE the natural look without the paint.
Me too!

How did they turn out?

How exactly did you make it look like a Boulder?
@@Shago786
Don't forget to put in a drain hole
That's pretty cool. I've never seen this before.
Paper pulp- 3 parts per
Portland Cement- 2 parts per
Sand (l use all purpose type)- 1 part per
Mix together well (can add more water if needed maybe?)
Add to a saranwrapped/packing taped laundry basket, working it about an inch and a half thick+
Make hole for drainage
Cover and let dry two days
Remove tape all around but leave tape on underneath
Smooth outer edges, where it caked onto basket weaves.
Let dry completely- two more days?
Peel tape off bottom
Pour water (nit sure temperature, I'd say warm?) over bottom until pot is completely wet
Carefully remove basket from cement
Smooth top edges if desired
Done!

Great idea (recommendation)
Very nice looking. Thanks for sharing this. First I have to figure out what papercrete is. Never heard of it. Love this, though!😊
Hi Char, thx for sharing this great idea! It was help if there was a list of items used. I wasn’t sure of some of the products you used (eg sanding block, type of paint).
That is beautiful! You are an artist!

That is awesome! I live a few hours away from there. You can also use a blender to mix the paper pulp if you don't have a mixing drill.
Awsome :) It took me about 3 minutes to focus on what you where making :)
Wow this was awesome seeing you using saran wrap to make your flower pot .
Thank you so much 😊

Madam's pot with two flowers is very beautiful
Wow, absolutely love this idea.
Thanks for sharing this project with me. Excellent!!!
That is amazing and very inspiring! You are brilliant and thank you for this DIY!
Beautiful work
2 years now, how has this stood up to the test of time? Very curious!!
That girl is so talented
Very creative..wish you success and be healthy
I am definitely going to make this cement pot...LOVE IT
BRAVO! belles idées merci de les partager .
Beautiful❤
Lindo ,ótima idéia ,qBeautiful, great idea, how whimsical and, you just have to let it cure, leave your vase wet for 1 week, otherwise in 1 year the cement will crumble, you have to go through the cure
Wow! Looks like a flower vase made of chocolate. I'm sure you are a chocolate freak. Nice project...loved it❤
You're so talented! Loved this

Absolutely beautiful pot! Do you find that you can grow most anything in there or do thr pots dry out too quickly? Do your plants seem to do well in your pots? I LOVE THIS IDEA THANK YOU! 💕
Neat idea. Because I expected you to keep the plastic grid inside the concrete for long term support. As is, perhaps it will not last so long??
Beautiful, the pot is great as well
Thank for a great job
I tried this, and now decided never to use paper pulp again for plant pots. Pot breaks , it has no strength to bear soil and after work of gardening. You can use this pot only for decoration purpose.
Great idea but sadly not practical.
I love it ! Has it held up when using for a planter or is that what u used it for.
Parabens pelo seu lindo trabalho, já me inscrevi para aprender mais.
Wow! I love this . I will try this duo the summer months .
Learn something new, everyday. Thanks❤
great project! i would have put something along the rim to make it really level. also instead of tape, just cover in heavy plastic for ease.
You need a tight fit so cement does not ooze out. If plastic is used inside then filled it would not show a crisp design
Love it! Thank you! Off shopping to get supplies :)
Good job, thanks for sharing, I will try to do it for my garden
Very cool! Can you tell me how to get paper pulp? Also, what kind of sand did you use? How much water? It turned out very pretty!
jgg7377 tear paper into pieces put into a bucket cover with water 💦 for a few days mash drain paper pulp. (I think 🤔)
Beutifull !!!, good job mam,,mabuhay!!! From ,the philipines,,
Beautiful both you and pot
Wow. This is amazing and a must try. Love it 😍
I am excited to try this! ❤
could you perhaps do one with colour in the mix, thank you wonderful idea
So impressive!
Excellent work.
Wow, that's beautiful
Felicidades es bello y útil trabajo mil gracias por compartir tu conocimiento
Ótimo ideia parabéns ganhou mais um escrito ❤🙏
Gotta try ! Thanks Char :)
I see some using paper pulp and some not. What is the difference? Can the ones with the pulp be placed outside? Thanks and nice job 😊
Beautiful nice work
Hi👋I really enjoyed watching your video♥️♥️.
Wonderful work's artist
Good idea and looks nice - have you had any problems with the pots breaking from not being reinforced with wire, etc?
As long as you let them dry out slowly, they are very durable. If you take them out of the mold too soon, they can crumble because they haven't cured yet. Also, if you make them too thin, they can be fragile. I try to make mine at least 1 inch thick.
Hi. Something new for me to try. What sand did you use? Building and or plastering sand ok? A fine granulated sand?
Would you post a list of products used and directions?
مرحبا ما هي المواد المضافه
Loved the video
Bendiciones excelente enseñanza, quisiera saber como preparar el carton o papel, solo se humedece con agua???? Gracias
😃🌲🌳🌺🌼🌻💕🇲🇽
Quedó muy bonita!!!
Loving the idea, but won't it just crumble to bits after the first hard frost?
It will be nice if y can tell what u are using. And qty also
Super excited
Olá lindo seu vaso adorei ❤😍🙌
I love video's like this very nice 👍
Очень красиво! Вы молодец! 👍
artist hands👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Crazy question, can you seal it inside to make a fountain?
Thank you for your great idea!!
Krista
Sharp mind nice ideas.
The end product is beautiful however, I could not make it to the end - I would be most appreciative if you would speed up the video when you are doing repetitive tasks. Thank you!
Fast forward it yourself I did
Love it! Thanks!
Nice - but how much water & oil / acrylic paint?
But 😍 it
Parabéns pelo o seu trabalho muito bom show 👏👏👏👏👍
How do you make the paper stuff you used with the concrete & sand?
Very well done. LOVE it!
Shred paper with a paper shredder or rip newspapers junk mail etc. soak in a large bucket with water stir a couple days . Either use and old blender to purée or buy attachment from hardware store to mix cement with attach to a drill and whirl the paper then add your sand cement mix together again
@charsnest
Was water used in the mixing process, and did that one mixture sufficient for that size basket, by the way what is the basket size??
Excelente seu trabalho. Parabéns
Awesome job.
nice points of view
Parabéns! Lindo lindo!!!
Nice job
Amei.Lindo o seu vaso
beautiful work subscribed to channel
Nice idea. Buy a solid basket and forego the cost of the tape! Would make the whole project go easier. Also a tip. This same idea could be applied to hypertufa.
I think she likes the lines. And besides you can get these baskets anywhere even a dollar store. Can’t say I’ve seen a solid one like that before, that size. I’m sure they exist but anything more rare (at least rare in Canada) will cost more then a dollar and a quarter 🤷🏼♀️
@@AMYV3 and
Amazing. Thanks 👍
Klasse gemacht. Ist es auch wetterfest?
I wonder if you could use paint as your liquid and have it colored instead of painting afterwards? Thanks for the tutorial!
Or dye
Yes you can add water based paint to concrete to color it... and dye. They make concrete color but you can very easily use what's convenient
Concrete stain will work
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Great job ‼️
😍😍😍Maravilha, gostei demais, parabéns👏👏👏👏
Olá pode me dizer qual é o Sray que ela deita no cesto sffv
Excellent thank you very much
Very good
Help!! Papercrete won’t come out of the basket!
I sprayed with canola, have scraped the outside and hosed down the outside.
Other ideas before I cut the plastic form??
Maybe try hot water. Conversely, if you have a big enough freezer, try that.
how many gallons might this be? this awesome
I think about 3-4
This would be 15litres or so. (Imperial gallons 3+ 4.4 lpg. Stupid gallons 4, 3.8lpg)
