Restoration Hardware Dupes // DIY Aged Planter Pot

[@jennhoff03]

Oh, this is 1000x better than most aging tutorials! Wow, what a difference.

[@rneustel388]

This is the best video of this type I’ve seen-four things needed-a pot, paint, sealer, and dirt-and one of those I don’t even have to pay for!! I’m subscribing.

[@ValerieAguiar]

Right!?! So glad to have you here! 💕

[@joannpellegrino3435]

My thoughts too! I always look to see what products the description says are needed before I even watch it. Defeats the purpose of diy if I have to spend a bunch of money on top of my time to recreate a look.

[@rneustel388]

@@joannpellegrino3435 So true!

[@terrytt2932]

As a retired ceramicist I thought, "that's a LOT of work". The end result is worth it! Thank you!!

[@ValerieAguiar]

Hi Terry! You are right... the end result is definitely worth the work!

[@merryaijlman7833]

I have watched several videos where someone has tried this technique. Your pot came out fabulous. It was the best one I have seen. ❤😊

[@ValerieAguiar]

Thank you!! :)

[@brookebrooks6224]

Seriously the best tutorial like this out there. It’s achieves a look that doesn’t seem DIY. Love the black, I’m going to try this on a white vase and see what happens!!

[@ValerieAguiar]

Hi Brooke! You're too kind! Let me know how it goes! 💕

[@valkyriesardo278]

Thank you. I recently salvaged a large plastic urn. It was half full with spray insulation foam so apparently once held an artificial plant. It already has a faux stone finish in a light mottled grey. I want to enhance that effect. I won't be able to use the local dirt because it is too organic. Maybe I can find some sand. I love your technique. I especially love your choice of olive branches. Those look perfect with your pot.

[@libbylandscape3560]

This is gorgeous! Love how you did it and your clear instructions. Thanks. ❤️

[@kymwolf5907]

I really love how this turned out! Such a great idea and so much cheaper than paying those expensive restoration hardware prices!

[@ValerieAguiar]

Thank you Kym! SO much cheaper and a bit more fun too!! 😉

[@hennychapnick1142]

It is much more rewarding, as it is your creation.

[@marcanthonyrodriguez3636]

it turned out gorgeous and 1000 years old looking . Job well done!

[@ValerieAguiar]

Thanks Marc!

[@juliemonroe105]

I loved your transformation. Everyone I have watched on IG use mud and you really got the textured look that everyone seems to be after. And your vessel the shape is beautiful for this. I would love to see you do this in a cream and a color so we can see how it would work for different people's taste. Beautiful job

[@ValerieAguiar]

Thank you Julie! I debated between the cream and a black color but decided on black! I love the shape too, these pots were such a great deal at Home Depot!

I am so lucky I found you!!! I was so frustrated after checking the prices of the large terracotta pots I wanted in the internet. Then I explored painti g the planter but the options were expensive and not very attractive. I am heading to Home Depot for my pot and my spray paint. Thank you!!!!

[@linebrisebois6908]

BEST DYI vessel I’ve seen so far! ❤️

[@cherylmacedo5521]

Looks authentic and truly amazing. Your “dirt” is perfect. I live in Virginia- red clay - not so good.....

[@ValerieAguiar]

Ah, yes! I've had people tell me the dirt they use isn't as easy to work with or doesn't look the same! I guess it's going to depend on where you're at, but I have seen people talk about (in the comments) work arounds that are just as good!

[@cookingmama6575]

Best work i have seen, thank you! ❤

Restoration hardware is a store that been around for years , just like pottery barn, crate and barrel, I am happy to see all the influencers talk about it

[@ValerieAguiar]

I agree! So many beautiful pieces and the quality is unmatched!

[@helenamirian908]

Ohhh...that's a lot more work than what I do with plastic containers to achieve a similar effect. I paint them all over with caulk, pat on some sand, then lightly spray paint first a light color, then highlights of a darker color. These look nice and heavy!

[@ritalayman9396]

I’m in the process of doing this now. Lol. It’s so fun. I got the same pot from Home Depot. Much bigger than it looked in your video. I ordered olive branches also. Can’t wait to finish and put together. Thanks so much for this.

Great idea! 😀

@ValerieAguiar I love the pot that you made! I was wondering if you think this can be placed outside? will it withstand rain and sun or should I be sealing it with something special for outdoor use?

[@AMcDub0708]

My piece was smooth like porcelain so I started with a mud rub over the black to build up some heavy texture. Then I lightly sprayed with black again (could’ve done clear) and then went in with the dry dirt method after that.

Very good tips! Thank you!! 💕
