What a great idea. Here in Florida, plastic disintegrates in the hot sun and humidity. Wood planters also, and attract ants. And, paint peels off. Thank you so much for posting. DOING IT!

Looks really good, Lucy. My plastic pots are so good because they're lightweight and hold moisture, but they're ugly. I have terracotta ones, but they're heavy and eventually break up in Winter when the frost gets in. The concrete looks so much better. A glazed pot that size would cost me £30 or more.

It stands on my terrace in the shadow. So, it is not influenced by direct sunlight and I cannot say anything about sun resistance. But, as to heat and cold, it withstands both very well. I don't hide it in a warm place for winter and the pot is safe and sound after two winters.

@littlebeebs1 Год назад

Thank you so much for confirming that this will work. I have been thinking of doing this to some very ugly plastic planters that go on the deck railing. I have been needing to plant something in them for a while, but they are so ugly and I couldn’t decide what to do with them. I think I will try this with at least one of them. I have two. I was considering spray painting them to look like galvanized metal. But I like this idea better. How many days did it take for it to cure enough to plant plants into? This was a wonderful video and I appreciate it very much. Thank you so much!

@DIYwithLucy Год назад

Thanks for such a wonderful comment. Three days is enough for the cement to fully harden.

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 RU-vid is they don't tell you how much water to add to the cement. I'm stuck experimenting

@DIYwithLucy 14 дней назад

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'.

@jackstrubbe7608 Год назад

I have used the plastic pots for reusable molds for hypertuffa pots and used non-discintigrating fiberglass fabrics or filaments for strength, rather than burying the pot for only one. More bang for your buck.

Yes it does, for this approach. The plastic pot remains inside the cement coat. There are different approached to making cement pots and planters. I show just one of them. There are options without plastic base. One of the examples is shown in my other video - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ww9Six2q6YA.html

The final shape and color of the pot doesn't do much for me. Add some interest at the top with a styrofoam wreath ring which can make the top wider. Your fauxing skills will get better with experience. Playing with mortar is fun! Good luck!

@DIYwithLucy 7 месяцев назад

Everything is shown using text titles and RU-vid subtitles. If you mean exact types of sand-cement mixture, primer or paint, then I could show them, of course, but I don't think it makes sense. First, I doubt that you could read these names in my native language. Second, I doubt you have these products at your market. So, you can use any primer or paint of the kind, that is intended for concrete surfaces and available in the stores in your country.

@cchemmes-seeseeart3948 10 месяцев назад

Concrete - cement is strongly alkaline as a chemical & destroys cloth, so this pot can be expected to have a short life span. I've spoken with artists who made projects like this & they ultimately fell apart in a few years. There is a reason "alkali resistant" fiberglass is used in concrete, & not regular fiberglass cloth. Metal cloth, like hardware cloth or lath will give lasting results.

@DIYwithLucy 10 месяцев назад

We'll see in the future. After two years, this pot still remains whole and unharmed. However, it stands in the shadow constantly and is not affected by direct sunlight.

@victorpalkaninec4950 5 месяцев назад

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.

@DIYwithLucy 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the good advices.

@victorpalkaninec4950 5 месяцев назад

@@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.
