How to Make a Faux Concrete Planter DIY

[@yolysab3899]

I have a suggestion for you. I do this same technique with my paper mache vases , but when I want to use in vase of glass, I use a mix of white glue and water same ratio, then I lay toilet paper sheets with the glue. They stick very strongly and get very hard when dry it., then any kind of texture you add will stick very well.

Wow, the best painting technique and colors that I have seen for this kind of aged pottery look. Thank you for an enjoyable video.....I'm ready to paint!

[@charlenewalker4124]

I've watched dozens of this type of technique and BY FAR yours looks the best!.. the thickness and color are very realistic and beautiful

[@darleneburgess9248]

I have seen a lot of techniques & I think yours looks the most authentic ! Gorgeous results, really look like stone! Love the colors you use! Excellent!🌺

Gracias Lucy 🤗💜✨

Great job. I too have used joint compound, but, I do think that plaster would hold up better if you were going to set them outside in the elements. That being said, I would use a good sealer over them if I were to put them outside. Joint compound does not dry as fast, but, I think too, that plaster would be more durable. Thanks for sharing.

Most beautiful planter i’ve seen

[@BusyBeeMaree]

I love these. I have done this myself. I think your end paint result is the best I’ve seen. Thanks I’m subscribing.

[@rebeccaburke4348]

Loved it.

[@lzrd8460]

Doing this with joint compound or spackling is so much easier than your method. Both of these don't dry out so fast and I think they make a more realistic looking vase. Not to mention, much more water resistant.

[@loratatum1793]

Such beautiful work Lucy! Thanks so very much for taking time to share your ideas! I hope to try this. Take care🥰

[@alicesmith6750]

You are so skilled with your work, final product is great, I need to learn your techniques. TFS!

[@rexrad9735]

I saw the black version of these on your blog. Can't wait to try that out! I have been trying to figure out how to make these. THANKS SO MUCH!

[@joannavarga8881]

Lucy, WOW, what a wonderful tutorial. I cannot wait to try it. Thanks for your info and ideas.

[@girlygal098]

I appreciate how you take us through the entire process from above. Great camera work. 🙂

[@rustyscrib6071]

Really pretty. I started on a large scale, but I went black with a lot of texture and planted succulents and i love it!

[@ashleywright8686]

Beautiful work! Very authentic looking.

[@Alexandra-h1i]

Smart lady there are so many RH vessel hacks this is great I’m about to break out my plaster!

[@genna2586]

Really like your work. Soooo good to see the results authentic and very organic and natural. Possibly one of the best videos I’ve seen to transform pots.

[@vvalencia6759]

I love these pots. I have been seeing similar antique versions in the stores...too pricey for me. I will definitely try this project.

[@aprilyue6941]

These are beautiful! I’m going to try this with my dental casting cement! So excited! Thanks for the great video!

[@inmaestevez774]

Una gran obra de Arte. Precioso. No hay palabras 😍😍😍

[@girlygal098]

What about adding a little bit of joint compound to your recipe to make the shell stronger?

[@chichi775]

if joint compound gets wet, it will absorb and fall off. would be ok if your piece will be inside

[@florangelahinckley8455]

Very nice,loved to see you working with your bare hands, great project

This one is so nicely done. Absolutely loving it and gonna try this. It's gorgeous

[@heidil.4651]

I can’t wait to try this!! Can they be put outside? I’ve never worked with plaster of Paris before.

[@mstracitrent]

Great DIY! I love this idea!

[@tobyfitzpatrick565]

BEAUTIFUL!

[@yoledolce7461]

Beautiful job

[@alicjapeka6849]

Super magnifique, bravo👍👏😘

[@casual454t1]

You can do the same with a small container of Quik cement or concrete patch from Home depot and you wouldn't need to paint it. I have done empty glass bottles and they look great.

[@easylovely7901]

This is a fantastic video and project! Great job!

[@gwendolynpadgett4255]

[@kathleengreen3411]

Hi .. I am new I love what you did I am going to try this!! what's all you used again please??

[@barbaratallent227]

Sooo beautiful!! I can’t wait to try this! Do you have to let it dry for a long time??

[@bnzaman]

i have a question. Does it crack when dries? because when plaster dries it usually shrink a little bit. In my experience, when you plaster on a hard surface(like glass jar or bottle) that makes some crack when it completely dies.

[@IMOO1896]

I suspect those areas that wouldn’t take the texturized May have had some oil on it. Did you clean with alcohol first? I really like your final results.

[@susancarvey9063]

Add white glue? How long does that surface last,just being plaster of paris....seal?

[@DoodlebugStinker]

Love the video. Great idea. BTW, if you want to retard the setup time of your plaster, just add a little bit of baking powder. Blood works also but... who wants to do that? Conversely, if you want to speed up the setup time, just add a little salt. However, be careful doing that as salt also weakens the plaster. Not sure that matters for this application, though. Also, you might want to invest in some rubber bowls and metal plaster spatulas for future projects. It makes mixing so much easier.

[@FraniQW]

Fabulous project. Kudos!!! ♥

[@rachelhendrickson7555]

Loved this so much?!

Can these pots be placed outdoors?

[@meierhsu8871]

Loved this, is the paint you use oil?

[@vonniechannel2818]

👍 nice

[@katiamarie2192]

Looks great! Can you place these outside or do they need sealer first?

[@ellingtonlover7319]

Would love to make these for outside too. If someone has suggestions as to how to ensure they survive over winter, please, please help. Thanking you in advance.

[@getlauriekor]

You,would defiantly have to,deal them. You’d need a matte varnish. I’d do four or five coats.

[@ellingtonlover7319]

@@getlauriekor Thanks for your recommendation. I live in the UK and I don't think they will survive a UK winter outdoors. But will definitely make them for indoors.

[@Lola.1952]

@@getlauriekor Excuse me, I'm Spanish and I'm not sure I got everything she said. Does she add any glue or just plaster, sand and water?

[@Lola.1952]

@Tammie LaBonte Thanks a lot. That's all I needed to know. Looking forward to giving it a go 😀

[@easyspeaking2u]

Can the glass crack or break from the weight of the plaster?

[@critterone1]

Is the glass container from dollar tree?

[@carlametcalfe4342]

Beautiful work, but the music is annoying, thank you

[@tryingoutgravity]

Would these survive outside?
