Wonderful idea! You could even use old 5 gallon buckets that look horrible and make them into something else.

For all who regret about the 'beautiful' vase. It was not so beautiful in fact. This thing was old, worn and absolutely out of fashion or value in my country. None use these vases here anymore. It's like a bad taste, you know. So, I have not ruined the thing that lay unused in the attic for many years, but rather I have given it a new life. So, all the best for everyone, and don't be too agitated as to MY things and the things I do with them. EVERYONE who will tell me arrogantly or in rude manner what I have to do, will be mercilessly banned.

You have every right to do what you see fit with items you own. Antiques go in and out of fashion-always have, always will. Thankfully most would choose to preserve antiques, and use cheap craft store items for projects. I do wish people would limit the toxic chemicals though.
@DIYwithLucyАй бұрын
Actually, this vase was NOT antique. )) It was usual pottery that lay unused for many years at the attic of my relatives, and they gave it to me for some craft-making. So, I've got it absolutely for free.

I love the idea of taking my old plastic pots and putting cement on them. The only problem with these video's Ive seen on KZbin is they don't tell you how much water to add to the cement. I'm stuck experimenting
@DIYwithLucyАй бұрын
Oh... I never heard about water amount, too. )) Everyone I know. including me, does this approximately, based on the cement consistency. It should be not too watery, and not too dry. So, as you said, it's a matter of experimenting to develop the 'feeling'.

@DIYwithLucy2 ай бұрын
I used a ready-made cement-sand mixture bought in a store. But you can do it by yourself. Use cement:sand ratio 1:3. As to the cement type. I think, Portland cement is always a better option, but it is more expensive. I guess, in the mixture I used, there was regular cement, not the Portland one.

Those who don't want, don't do this. It's so simple, And by te way, notice that I was willing to waste my time to answer your disrespectful and meaningless comment. You even didn't waste your time to check and see that I'm not from English-speaking country.

In this case, turf is a kind of top soil, humus. We can buy it here in stores for gardening and we use it for flowers or vegetables planting. When the natural soil is poor, we add it into planting pit.

You never removed the plastic pot, so its a nice plastic pot covered with cement, its not a cement pot. You could have done better by placing a smaller plastic pot into a lager plastic pot where the inside of the larger pot and the outside of the inner pot are icoated with oil. Pour cement between the 2 pots, add rings of wire to the size of the perimeter in 2 or 3 areas for added strength. When its somewhat dried dried in 24 hours, pour hot water to remove the outer pot and the same for the inner pot. Instead of using paint, use cement pigments to mix with the cement. ie. iron oxide.

@victorpalkaninec49506 ай бұрын
@@DIYwithLucy If you are artisticly gifted, you can also pour cement into a squeze bottle (the one’s chefs use). The cement should be the consistency of tooth paste. Use the squeeze bottle to draw on to the cement pot, just be sure to spray with a little water first. FYI, this will not work on the painted surface. You can always use stencil designs traced in pencil then use the squeeze bottle filled with the slurry cement. I always appreciate people who can make things for themselves.
