Hi everyone! Today I will show you how to make decorative concrete houses, they can be used as flower pots or lanterns (or even both of these at once). List of supplies below! Enjoy watching!
To make the houses you will need:
- cement or concrete mix. I used 5 kg of mix to make two houses - one bigger (20*25 sm) and one smaller (10*15 sm). For example: www.amazon.com/QUIKRETE-11011...
- polystyrene ceiling tiles for molds. I didn’t find any at Amazon, but I’m pretty sure you will find one at any hardware store. You can also use cardboard, but you’ll have to cover it with duct tape then.
- chicken wire for reinforcing concrete and making flower roofs, for example this: www.amazon.com/YARDGARD-30822...
- ceramic tiles adhesive mix or stone adhesive mix for gluing walls together (you can also take the very cement mix you used to make the walls)
- if you will put houses outside, I highly recommend to protect it from rains/snow with some sealer. I used silicone impregnant bought at local store, here is something similar: www.amazon.com/Eco-Advance-EA...
- some wood planks for the roof. I used pine planks and a 19 * 19 mm sticks.
- A coconut liner for flowers.
