Hello friends. I hope you had a nice weekend. I’m so excited to share this project with you as I wasn’t sure if it was going to turn out. But I’m happy to say that it did…:) Over the weekend, I shared as I experimented this method (which I have tried before) but not in this scale. I got a lot of requests for a tutorial so here is how to make an antique faux concrete planter.
I actually don’t know what to really call them. Concrete, Stone? I had tried this method before in a much smaller scale.
You can click on the photo above to take you to the post.
One of my sweet friends on Instagram said she was so excited to try this method because she has had her eye on THIS particular planter.
Imagine how cool that will be to make one in that scale. I’m actually looking forward to trying it in the summer…:)
Well without any further adieu, here is the video :
A couple things :
1. I used a glass vase and even though the plaster seems to be stuck very well onto the glass, I would recommend using a more porous container, such as plastic or wood.
2. The plants are just placed inside the planter, I didn’t plant them but if you use a glass vessel to plant plants, make sure you line the bottom with sand or moss so it absorbs the water away from the roots.
I think they look so cool. I have to tell you that I’m not too sure how they would do outdoors. I think I’m going to make a small one and test it out.
That’s it for now. Let me know what you think? Is this something you would try or is it too much?
Thanks so much for stopping by today. See you soon.
much love,
Lucy

I LOVE this. What a great Idea. Can’t wait to try this. Lucy, did you say to use a sealer over top? If so, which one do you recommend? Thanks so much.
Lindsay Thompson says
These are gorgeous! I’m curious if you use terracotta planters and plant your plants directly in the planter, will watering the plants cause the plaster to crumble?
Cat says
Love this! Found you via Seeking Lavendar Lane. Plan to make some. Thank you for the demo!

Hello Madam. Thanks for the diy. You have great talents. I do not understand your language I am Belgian and I use a translator to communicate with you. Can you tell me please what is the powder you add to the plaster of paris? Thank you in advance for your reply
Proverbswoman says
She said it is very fine sand like what is bought at a pet store, but it is not needed. It just adds extra texture..

A debt of gratitude is in order for the diy. You have incredible gifts. I don’t comprehend your language I am Belgian and I utilize an interpreter to speak with you. Would you be able to advise me please what is the powder you add to the mortar of paris? Much obliged to you ahead of time for your answer with free guilds and quests
Zendegy says
She says that it is fine sand. You can find it in the craft section or the pet store. Good luck!

I love concrete projects, these are really good tips. I like how you made your own molds! The little planters came out so modern.
Thank you,
