- Episode 2 of Ray's Week. Showing my patio some love since the weather is getting nice. Of course, it wouldn't be a Raven Elyse project without some DIYs. Some worked; some didn't! I made some fireboxes to go by the pool, flipped my Crate & Barrel tables, and "tried" to create some modern aesthetic customized serving trays. Watch to see what happened!

you can tell that you have so much more fun with your newer content than you were about a year ago and i absolutely love it too 💕 happy mother's day & you are so appreciated
I think you should try the tray idea again but just with clear resin. You wouldn’t have to worry about sanding anything down as the pieces will be shown throughout since the resin is clear. It would be a lot more food safe as well.
I was wondering if there was a reason she didn’t try resin
Sorry about the dirty camera lens throughout the video! All the messy dusty DIY projects have been taking a toll on my poor camera lol! Stay tuned for part 2 next week to see how everything fully turns out!
Omg, no worries. Happy Mother’s Day!!! 💛
Raven, make the failed trays into outdoor art pieces. Brake them in half and put some kind of finishing sealant on them , and put them on your bigger table maybe. 🤷🏽♀️😂 might be cute. 👋🏽😁
Happy Mother’s Day Ms Raven💙💙
how dare you
Make a "raven elyse" plaque with the tile project you made
Use them as coasters for the outside table. Happy Mother’s Day ❤
this is a great idea
I just seen your message but yes....most definitely agree. I said the same thing!!
@@mamiebelton6371 right they would match perfect and are heavy duty.
as a long time viewer, I truly always appreciate the directions this channel has gone in. can’t wait to see the continued progression 🙌🏽🎉
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY RAVEN AND TO ALL MOTHER'S THAT WILL SEE THIS VLOG‼️‼️❤️💕💐🌻🌸🌺
Happy Mother's day to you as well 💐❤️
you can use the concrete mosaic pieces as garden stepping stones, near your garden boxes maybe. Happy Mother's Day.
Love your assistant, you guys work really well together.
I would use the tray as a big coaster for the middle of the outside table. You can use the leftover material to make coasters. I really like the fireboxes. 🌸
"if johnny has 5 apples" took me out 😂
Happy Sunday and Happy Mother’s Day Raven and all other moms out there🩷💐
have you thought of getting bougie a catio? its like an enclosed outdoor space for your kitty so they can go outside without running off
That would be a cute diy project 👀
I love Raven in her DIY bag. Whether it's a success or fail, it always motivates me. Love the fireboxes!
You and the assistant girl should take your show on the road and turn homes into beautiful masterpieces!
Her name is Zoey
Yes I agree! Though I do remember Zoey saying something about this job being temporary. But for the time being, I don’t see why not.
@@desalexandria Zoë
Goes without saying, your content has taken a turn for the better. I hope you feel supported, inspired and secure in your vision as you continue to purse your DIY creations and event-planning.
Personally love how the tables and boxes came out! Looks perfect for an outdoor area. Using the grout was a good idea.
The fire boxes rock! I wish you would have made them longer too, but they're still a very nice touch.👌🏽
This video was hilariousssss! I fell out when Raven said now to my other failure over here! 🤣🤣🤣😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩. I love these DIYs because these are actually real life experiences. Good job ladies. I love DIYs myself.
Happy Mother's day Raven and also your mom and sister .💐💐💐🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
Happy Mother Days Raven and to all the viewers out there!
" WELL THATS TOO DAMN BAAAD!"
Also I love watching the three of you do these DIYs that you come up with Raven. Keep up the great videos!
💓
I love Zoey more every time she comes around 😂❤️🥰
Stepping stones to your garden!
Happy Mother's Day!
Hello & Happy Mothers day to you and your mom🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
The dynamic between you two is HILARIOUS! 😂
Hey raven 💃🏻 maybe you can seal it with the same sealant you used on the outdoor tables and use the tiled cement slab as a tic tac toe game base and use two different colored rocks to stand for X , O . Happy belated Mother’s Day beautiful! Love all that you do, you are phenomenal !!!
Happy mother's day Raven ❤🎉 continue being this mum you are healthy and hard-working
The planters are a dope idea. It'll be cute black and double up the structures; them being smaller makes them easier to relocate, but the space definitely calls for a double up, so two more planters for sure.
Hey sis, If zi were you I would use them for "stone coasters" because cans, cups, and glass sweats. Help, protect your new tables. OR as a weight for yard things that may blow away. It could be a rock garden decor piece. Or a stone sign for decor of some sort!! I'm sure you'll think of something!! Love your home, it's so Raven!!!
Turn the tray into coasters! Or decor sit something on top of it like an outside candle
Someone give this lady a IGTV segment/show immediately! she has such the personality for it. Even though she does it great on her own channel the exposure could get her the high paying customers/endorsements she deserves!
Content is amazing, love the team, the energy and woman working together, bringing ideas left and right I love it all!!!
I was thinking maybe you could use the cement pieces as coasters for the grout tables paint/spray it and put something pretty to dress it up and them pieces you stick on furniture to not scratch the surface or floor xx
I would recommend for the tile to get a tougher sanding grit then break them and turn them into coasters and then use resin to seal them. As far as the planting boxes go I would definitely recommend buying some clear weatherproof spray paint of some sort so that they would hold up. Also if since you do have too many plants in the boxes, I would recommend making at least one more. The fire things around the pool did in fact come out great. I would just recommend weather proofing those.
Good Job RETV crew ❤
I would use the cement trays as some kind of coaster when you are hosting to put drinkes and stuff on
Happy Sunday and happy Mother’s Day Raven. 🤗❤️To chef Toni and your sis as well 🌹🌼🌸. You stay busy. I’m figuring you’re sprucing up outdoors for the Mother’s Day brunch we’ll see hopefully in a couple of weeks. You and Zoe definitely the dream team. Looking forward to the end results next week 🤗
i’ve been watching you since you were in college and this new content is so refreshing. it’s so beautiful to see how much progression this channel has made throughout the years. you should be proud. 🩷
The DIY Queen 👸🏾
If you still decide to do the cement tray, you could put a light coat of cement down and dry it. Then add the glass tiles (after the first coat has dried) with another light coat of cement, light enough so not too much sanding is required :)
Happy Mothers Day Raven and Chef Toni and to all the other moms!
You can add them to your front yard garden as stepping stones and throughout your yard .
@RavenElyse I would use it as a trivet for having hot dishes sitting on top of them and make drink coasters with the cement and broken glass.
The cement and pieces would make great outdoor coasters!
Hey Raven Keep up the DIYs! Happy Mother's Day!!
You should get an outdoor rug , I like how the coffee table turned out
As you were filling the torch boxes with sand, I kept thinking, "maybe you should place them first and then fill them..." 😆 Everything looks great though!
blessings 😅 you are indeed the DIY Queen 👏👏👏👏
Happy Mother’s Day !!
With the white tiles maybe make like stepping stones with them. 💚
Great refresh
You could do a thin layer of cement, add the glass on top, and do a resin coat on top so you can still see the concrete without having to sand anything
Tables look awesome and the boxes look good too! The night vibes are def heightened. For future projects you can also line the sand part of the boxes with large garbage bags to prevent leaking. You can also extend the legs to length or width of the box to prevent it from detaching when you try to move it again. For the mosaic part, it is super time consuming bc it’s all about placement. It’s best to place each piece how you want it then apply the cement. When you apply too much it will cause the air pockets unless you thin out the cement enough to ease into small crevices. Love your channel!
Happy Mother's Day Raven!! To your beautiful Momma Chef Toni!! And to your Sister Ashley!! All the Mommas in your life!! Enjoy your day!! ❤️
You can use the cement blocks as trivets for hot food to be served. It will protect your table from Hot Food (indoor/outdoor😊. They will also blend with your outdoor furniture if you choose to use them outside
Love seeing raven on Sundays .. it’s like catching up raven ❤
You can get the stone spray paint at Home Depot if you want the tables to look more like stone instead of concrete ◡̈
Raven I loved spending part of my Mother’s Day watching & enjoying your channel 😇 Happy Mother’s Day! (Everyone) … May our blessings continue 👍🏽
everytime i worry whether or not you’ve done all the diys and projects in your home you hit us with another… FIRE project 🤌🏽💕
Cut smaller tray into cup saucers for the outdoor tables. Just an idea. Good Luck.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and I hope you guys had a great day.
I think you should use the concrete and glass shards idea for stepping stones for your plant boxes! It would be a great diy to use up that concrete and shards while being cute! I’m not positive you can make that concrete food safe
The coffee table and side table came out nice!! 😍 You can use the slabs you made with the glass as coasters. Or go with decorative tray idea and add greenery and decor accents on top.
I love everything about this channel!! I’m tearing up 🥹
"Who's her?" .. "Me 💅🏻" 😂😂😂 happy Mother's Day Raven 🤎
I really like the mini tray. Super cute❤❤
You could make coasters for your outdoor table with the concrete and leftover glass.
They need to put Raven on HGTV ❤ I just love her DIYs
I miss your Mum time videos with Ziya!I love all your videos though,thx.
Put a seal on it and use as a riser make more and place around with snacks on them etc. You can even put a natural coat of paint on them and some feet !😏
Happy Belated Mothers Day Raven and chef Toni
Wondering if resin would’ve done better for the trays to reveal the tile pieces as well as to ensure the bigger tray didn’t pop out.😊
Happy Mothers day Raven! Tell your mom Happy Mothers day too. This DIY looks fun. Enjoy your day. God bless!
Happy Mother’s Day Raven! 🤍
Hey @RavenElyse there’s a sealant that you could use, that’s specifically for outdoor use, that’s weatherproof. You could’ve used those for the boxes over the pool, to prevent the sand from slipping out.
You need a rougher grit sand paper to do the initial sanding. And then go back in with the 80 to polish it out.
The cement slab reminds me of a stepping stone. 😉
Wow. Raven, you guys are so creative. The ladies who DIY.
Happy Mother’s Day
The tray mold reminded me of mud pies we made as kids
I would try the failed DIY again and create coasters! You can add felt pads on the bottom so they don't scratch surfaces.
Happy💐 Mother’s Day, thanks for sharing! The first Sunday CZcams video I look forward to every week. Keep up the good work!🥰
Happy mother's day for such hardworking and loving mothers ❤❤❤❤
I’m so glad you posted this video really wanted to make my own plant pots
Love the DIYs. It’s so fun watching, even fails!!
I suggest adding 2 more sealer coats on the tables
Add felt feet on the diy fails and sealer on top for your newly refinished tables.
You need to do multiple coats of sealers, anywhere between 3-5 coats to really protect it an makes sure to fully cure it also.
I have sooo much respect for you Raven and Zoe for this project,,, DIY is not my cup of tea,,, I can't even paint properly 😂💔,, lol,,, the frustration when some projects didn't go as you expected,,, I'd be crying my eyes out,,, I just can't,,,,, lots of respect,,
Love your videos. I am a diy girlie myself and have been renovating my house. A good tip that has helped my projects tremendously is pre drilling a hole before screwing in the screws it helps a lot with accuracy. I also started with using a jigsaw too and got comfortable with that. Eventually I started using a circular saw and that changed the game. Also a kreg pocket hole jig is amazing, it looks intimidating but very easy to use. Would have helped with building the planter boxes and with projects in the future. Love your creativity and videos.
the baking whisk! lmao
Haha i laughed so hard. This was so fun to watch 🤣🤣🤣 you guys are really something 😅
You should paint the tables black and add an outdoor rug
Happy Mother's Day everyone. I would use the little tray as a decorative piece for hot or cold things whether a drink or dish.
Happy Mother’s Day. Maybe use them for decor display. Love the fire boxes! Maybe make two more so you cane have two on each side!
Hi Ms Raven, a huge fan all the way from Singapore. I do have a similar concrete pieces with tiles like terrazzo look-alike and what I do with it is act like a decorative pieces on shelves. You can put plants on top of it. It will not go to waste and who knows you maybe making a start to your future Home Decor Business! Big Fan!
I think the smaller concrete piece can be used like a trivet for hot dishes. And on coffee table a like a large coaster for cold pitchers...maybe
‘Not putting on gloves… you can’t make me’ meeeee with literally every household chore ☠️
Raven you did a great job on the tables and fire boxes ❤️🔥.
You guys are so clever and creative….wear gloves my dear and rinse outside with the garden hose, you don’t want that stuff in your plumbing system. I love the DIYs….keep ‘em coming❤
🌹First off, Happy Mother's Day Raven 🌹Oh girl, this had me in stitches. Y'all are so entertaining 😄 I could definitely see where you were going with the trays. Better luck next time, you've got the great idea of is. Love the tables and fire boxes, great ideas. Can't wait until next week to see part 2. Thanks for sharing. Stay blessed 🤗 xo
We need a Raven Elyse x Mr.Kate collaboration
Catio for bougie please!!!❤
Just glue the chunk back on with cement. Use a putty knife to spot fill the air bubbles. Seal it and use it to hold drinks or a plant outside.
I would love to see you do some resin projects
