hey everyone this is Mary from DIY Montreal and today we're going to make a concrete flowerpot
using this bag of concrete this will be my very first time working with cement or concrete
so this is going to be interesting bear with me so the plan is to use these two buckets
and basically just use these as a form to hold the concrete pot and let's see what we
can do alright so I added these little braces on to these pieces of wood and the idea is
that I'm going to attach these to the bucket like so so that when I place this bucket into
the larger one it'll sit flush with the top and this will allow me to have spacing under
on the bottom and just basically have it sit in place while it dries
[Music] all right so now I'm going to put it in get a hole like that [Music]
[Music]
[Music] so I'm really happy with how this project turned out but if I were to do it
again there are a couple things that I would do differently the first thing that I would
do is that when I attach this little bracket to my smaller bucket I would add some spacers
on the outside to make sure of the spacing is really even all around it to get a really
even lift the second thing I would do different is right now the inner base of my planter
is about up to here so it's really thick and that makes this thing pretty heavy and it
doesn't give a lot of room to my plant inside so if I were to do it again I would probably
build up the base of the bucket and I don't know I might trace it out onto some wood and
just stick that on with some tape or something like that just to give my face a little more
depth I think it turned out pretty awesome hey if you like this video and you found it
