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!

That was a very very clever way to fill in the that top void. That would keep the pot lighter. But it changed the look completely!! Lovely lovely. Very creative!
i think this is good to repurpose an old plastic pot that has started to have cracks. 👍🏼
a Big thank you for teaching me this technique. You are very talented person.
Thank you very much.
Great idea!! I ❤️❤️❤️ this!!!THANK YOU FOR SHARING 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
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.
Yes, you are right. And thank you for the feedback.
@@DIYwithLucy ó6 lo lo lo
Je vous regarde depuis la France,en Isère.Merci pour vos conseils.Cordialement
Thank you for the inspiration! I will try that one too 👍😁
like 398, very nice made love this design❤
Your pot is gorgeous! I LOVE it ! Thanks again for the inspiration. I have made pots with rags and cement and was wondering if this would work on a plastic pot . Now I know it does 🤗
Absolutely gorgeous

I have four white plastic pots that would look fabulous after this treatment. What a great idea!
Fantastic tutorial. I’ve been looking for a long time to find an effective way to verdigris. Saltwash difficult to source in UK. Thank you
Awesome! Thank you :) Working on finding my way to pay for college and this video was helpful
Super idea!!!!!👍👍👍
Beautiful
i love this beautiful idea of yours, it stayed great, my prob is that I suffer from OCD, not sure if I can pull it off, the vase stayed so beautiful, stay blessed
Love the way you create this plastic to cement pots. Beautiful. 👍
Такое мастерство .Здорово .
WHAT A WONDERFUL WONDERFUL IDEA, I AM GOING TO TRY THIS!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO VERY VERY MUCH!!!!!! THE DEMONSTRATION IS VERY DETAILED AND THE MUSIC IS SO MOVING AND MOTIVATING 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much.
❤️ Amazing!!❤
One can use this truck on broken plastic pots... Kudos to u
Great work!
Wow
so clever!
Love it!!!’
Great idea 👍👍👍👍
Tudi jaz rada delam..izgleda lepše ker se ne vidi plastika..lepo
awsome work!!!
Thank you.
Great idea
Thank you.
Very nice
Классно!
I love the look of this finished pot. Can you tell me how it weathers with heat in the summer and clod in the winter. Thank you for sharing. I love them❣️❣️❣️
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.
Parabéns 👍
Muito bom
Beautiful, so unique. So glad You did not paint it orange, red, green or blue.❤
Yes, especially since the dark colors retain heat and could cook the roots.
Mil vezes o antes!!!!!
👍👍👍
Beautiful Bangladesh
Talented man.stay safe Godbless im your new subcriber.
Thank you very much. Welcome!
Do Brasil olá me escrevi no seu canal muito bom o seu trabalho estou iniciando também
Good luck!
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!
Thanks for such a wonderful comment. Three days is enough for the cement to fully harden.
Thank you for the reply. I’m going to do one now . But mine is more complicated in shape . It’s a deck rail planter . Wish me luck haha !
What type of cement did you use? Love your pot and post. The only one I found with actual directions and no music! But it would be helpful to know the products to use.
😮😍😍😍👍👍👍
This turned out beautiful! I watch a older lady who makes all kinds of things from cement. She use’s Portland kind. What exactly did you use for material?
Thank you for the feedback. I use a special ready-made cement-sand mix. It is available in hardware stores in our country. The cement is a usual one, not Portland.
That would be Helen from Georgia.. me too.!! I've made a few of the Hypertufa's...
Absolutely love it....❤❤
Amazing work... how much time did you allow the cement to dry before reapplying?
Usually, I left it over a night and continued to apply next level of cement next day.
I'm watching the video
👍
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.
great job...will they withstand getting wet, freezing , thawing etc etc in cold climates? thanks
Thank you for the feedback. I have made this pot just this spring, so I don't know about freezing. We need to wait till winter. )) As to getting wet, I think, it's no problem for cement. I will see it after, anyway.
How did they handle the winter, and any freeze? Also wondering what is your zone. Many thanks!
@ltuerk Very well. After two winters, I see that cold weather and freeze absolutely didn't influence the pots. But I keep them on the terrace under roof, so they are not influenced by snow and ice. I live in Ukraine. Our winters are cold.
Wow I subscribe!

Thank you.
Thankyou for the video. What's the ratio of sand water and cement mix do you use.
I used ready-maid mixture bought in a market. If you want to prepare the mix yourself, the ratio is 1:2 (cement:sand).
@@DIYwithLucy Thankyou and good work.
Thank you very much for sharing, but what fabric did you use? It's because in other videos in the comments they say that large pots made with towel fabric deteriorate very quickly.
Thank you for the feedback. I used an old linen bedsheet. This pot has been standing on my terrace for two years, and I have not noticed any signs of deterioration yet.
@@DIYwithLucy Thanks for answering, very good reference, two years and still good👍👍
Great! I wonder...would it work with hypertufa?
Yes, of course. I have used similar technique making amphora with hypertufa. Here is the link: czcams.com/video/ARYUz5qax6s/video.html
Tolle Idee aber ohne Farbe sah der Topf viel besser aus finde ich.
It depends. I show just general ideas, but you can apply them in any variations of colours, materials etc. But thank you for the comment.
I would love toknow exactly the product you uxed for thecement.

@@DIYwithLucy Thank you so much!
ABO !
No drain hole? Pretty though 😊
The drain holes are shown at 7:33 - 7:40. )) And thank you for the feedback.
@@DIYwithLucy must have turned for a moment. Probably a grandchild came up to me, lol. Anyway, thanks 😊
Este macetero se queda con de plástico, el cemento es un forro del plástico , verdad ?
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 - czcams.com/video/ww9Six2q6YA/video.html
Добрый день.Можно знать,какой состав второго и следующие слои раствора?
Здравствуйте. Раствор один и тот же для всех слоев.
@@DIYwithLucy СПАСИБО.
What kind of cement did you use? Mixture? 🤔
Yes. It's ready-made sand-cement mixture. It is available in hardware stores in our country. But you can make it by yourself, of course. Just mix a cement and sand, as usual.
How much sand to cement ratio
I used ready-made sand-cement mixture bought in a store. If you want to make it by yourself, use the ratio of sand:cement = 3:1.
Can white cement be used instead of grey?
Yes, of course. But it is more expensive in our country.
Beautiful, but it’s a lot of work to get there. More time consuming. How many days and/or hours does it take from start to finish?
I did it in several stages. I think, the whole process amounts to 3-4 days, but the main part of it is the time for drying of cement at each stage.
И чем горшок не понравился? Раскрась- красота! Конечно,цементный прочнее.
Я бы сказала, более стильный. ))
What happens when the UNtreated inside portion starts to breakdown--because plastic does that?
I don't have such experience, but, I think, it will not damage the outer cement at all, taking into consideration the cloth layer.
Then the plant eats the plastic and then we eat the microplastic in the tomato
Personally, I never intended to use these pots for vegetables. Just for garden decorative plants. Perhaps, additional inner cement layer for such application is a good idea.

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!
C'est super mais se n'est pas en français merci
Unfortunately, I don't know French.
I have added English subtitles to the video. You can try automatic translation of the subtitles into French.

Unfortunately, there is no one who could translate into Spanish for me. ((

Just the music is not nessessary! Nice idea!
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.
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.
Thanks for the info. @@DIYwithLucy
Assim você perde o balde 😢
It is just an idea and technique. You can use anything for the base. For example, broken plastic pot. I didn't use this plastic pot already, so it was useless for me.
There has to be drainage holes.
Yes, of course. Look at 7:34.
Look easy but s not
Why don't you show what products you are using????
Everything is shown using text titles and CZcams 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.
Alternatively you can just buy a cement planters. Much less efforts, mess. The price will be about the same, taking into account buying materials to create this “ cement” planter.
You absolutely right that it is easier thing to buy a planter. But you are absolutely wrong as to the price. This planter required nearly a half of the cement pack, and the price of it is several times cheaper than a ready cement planter of that size.
You can indeed do that, but many have more time than $$. Plus, this is cheap entertainment with creative, therapeutic value.😊
Trust and Believe, concrete planters are super expensive. Some of us need DIY!@@DIYwithLucy
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.
Thank you for the good advices.
@@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.
Time wast cement wast
I don't think so. But you have a right to have your own opinion, of course.
brute if you are so clever why are you watching this? GREAT JOB LUCY AND BIG THANK YOU.
