Do not be embarrassed, this is a learning video and an eye-opener for me who is just learning about this cement vessel.

You can also fill the mold with water and then pour that into a measuring cup to see how much concrete/water mixture is needed.

Great video, and thank you for sharing😊😊😊😊

Your very detailed information is awesome. I have never viewed videos that were this detailed, and I have viewed thousands, literally. Thank you for sharing!!!😊

Love these! Supper helpful.

Loved this! Thank you, that was super helpful!

You're so creative! What a cool idea 😍

Thank you for your content, it’s super helpful to me! I think your vid’s are great and I love the music!!!

A big thank you. Learnt so much. Xxx

Great info, I’m just starting out. Thank you

Thank you so much for all of this info....I am considering trying this and I love how much information and tips you give us...thank you so much

Thanks for sharing this. I am bad on trying to rush. These tips will help me.

Thank you so much for this!! This is the only video that has thoroughly described everything that I needed to know. Please continue to make videos like this one.

Thank you for these tips. I live in Arizona as well so it was nice to hear the dos and don’ts about not drying them out in the heat and humidity. 😊

Your video is awesome

THANK YOU! This was so awesome! I just started and I've already made all these mistakes! LOL. This is incredibly helpful!!

Thank you so much for this video, great job on the video and wonderful job learning all of the information on the first place. You make a truly good difference in my life, thank you!

Love your content! Not related to candles - Your hair color looks great!

Wow! Thank you so much for all this amazing information. You always do a great job with your content. I think it would be fun to see clips from your farmers markets set up/interaction with customers -at least from your perspective so you don't have to record the actual customer unless they would like to be on camera. You have such an enjoyable demeanor, it would be informative and fun to spend clips from your day. Thanks again for all your content.

Thank you!!! I am just starting out ! I make soap and candles but jars are getting harder to purchase so I started looking into making my own! 😊

I cannot really picture humid days in Arizona :D, i'd say it's pretty dry. Thinking of doing this for my own business, since I am in Texas it might not be too different from what you are used to. Thank you for all your tips! Super helpful!

Yes got some from Nicole mold !! Getting ready to try them out wanted the bubble but it was sold out at the time lol

Thank you for this great video. I saw in your Etsy shop containers with the writing on them. Do you have a video on how to do that?

I like you candle jar and candle

Could you do a video on how to measure concrete for different molds? I don't like wasting product. Thanks for sharing..

Great video. But at times the music drown ur voice out. I’m just starting I’m excited!

Thank you for all the information that you have shared I make candles as well and I was starting to think about making them in concrete vessels and I am loving your videos I do have a question about the silicone molds is it OK to spray like cooking oil or W 40 or even silicone mold release when you’re pouring concrete to make it come out easier or will the spray absorb in the concrete

How do you do the marble ones behind you there lovely

Thanks for sharing. I want to get into this business but I’m not sure how to package or market. Any suggestions on how to do that?

Would it be possible for you to make a tutorial on each mold and how much cement all you use with each?

Hi, regarding the oval mold - have you noticed a slight prutruding seam on one end of the exterior? I'm not sure if it's just my mold, but all my vessles so far have a visible bump running top-to-bottom on one end. Checked the mold and sure enough it was there. I wanted to order more to increase production, but I'm hesitant. So many companies on amazon offering the same product! Thanks!

Hello, I have a question about the best kind of wax to use in cement candles

Can you paint the concrete after instead of adding the paint at pouring time

Love the content, you do an amazing job, this time though the music in the background is very off putting and makes it difficult to hear your important information

Thank you very much for your tips in this video, they are very useful! I follow you from Spain and I always have the same doubt. When you talk about concrete, do you mean hormigón? I'm somewhat confused because I don't know if you mean Cement or hormigón, in Spanish it is called that. On the other hand, if it is hormigón and not cement that you use, why do you use concrete/hormigón and not cement? It's also very consistent, plus you wouldn't have to use TiO2 to clear it up. That is why doubts arise between the difference between what you call concrete and cement What mix do you use? Thank you very much and sorry for all the questions I ask you. It seems easy to make cement jars, but it really is not easy at all and I admire you for it, congratulations for your videos. i just love them😍

Do you have the link for the bubble mold even if it is out of stock. Thank you.

thank you so much! I have that huge mold you talked about and for some reason the bottom inside is cracking? alot of wasted cement. what is happening? my screws are tight, I tried looser, wetter, dryer??????help

Hi, I am intending to make some concrete pots ( I am a novice and having make any yet ). I wonder if I can use white cement + plaster of Paris and white sand. What would be your advice . Thank you

Do you put anything on the bottom to protect the surface it is sitting on such as felt? And if so, what is the best way to adhere it to the concrete?

What is the time spand when working with cement all

When you are pouring your molds how many molds do you pour at a time? I’m new to pouring the concrete vessels I have two molds just to see if I was going to like it which I do eventually I will get more molds but do you have to make your concrete mix runny so it doesn’t harden up or do you just pour so many at a time with your mix

Have you had any issues with making and sealing so close together? With cement usually taking 28 days to cure, I'm curious if sealing is preventing the moisture from drying out 🤔

Hey! What is the proportion of cement, sand and plaster of paris and water? I’m into jesmonite but finding it very expensive

How about a "Father's day" container ?

Do you wash the containers after you let them dry?

It says u havent made videos for a yr now are u still on youtube?

Love your work ❤️. Not keen on the music while you’re talking though 👎

You keep talking about concrete drying. Sure it does dry, but what you need to know is that concrete _CURES_. The concrete curing process can, and should, be done under water. That way heat and humidity will ALWAYS be the same and won't affect the batch to batch outcome. Curing is a chemical process where the wet cement particles coating the silica sand (in the case of Cement All) chemically grow a granular structure which interlocks to itself. If the concrete dries before it cures, then the curing process stops and those interlocking bonds don't happen leaving you with weak concrete. One day under water is a good start and much better than zero days or only a few minutes. One week is better and one month under water is best. Obviously you've figured out that your vessel castings are strong enough for candles, but if you were wondering why some are stronger than others, blaming Arizona's famous dry heat is a good start. You were spot on with your discussion about humidity. For small castings you could demold the vessels according to Cement All's directions and immediately place them into a bucket of water (as the (poor) instructions on the Cement All box direct). Near the end of your video you said that you will quickly learn how much Cement All to use for each mold. Once you have that figured out, you should weigh that amount of cement and write it onto each mold along with the weight of water so you aren't guessing in the future. Can you even write on silicone molds? Dunno. Alternatively I believe you can buy silicone measuring vessels in assorted sizes so you can skip the scales. The minerals in your water also make a difference. If you have hard tap water that varies in hardness from day to day, that's a problem. Soft water has all the calcium, magnesium, and iron removed and is much better. Bottled water is sometimes better than that. You can refill 5 gallon bottles of bottled water at Walmart and some grocery stores for pretty cheap compared to small bottles. The ceramics community does slip casting by making a thin slurry of clay to coat the inside of their casting molds. The same can be done with concrete, but you have to work faster (than clay). For concrete it works like this: you pour small amount of a slightly thinner batch of concrete into the mold first, tip and rotate the mold around to coat the inside of the mold, pour out any excess, and then pour the rest of the concrete in. For the area where the mold is exposed (the actual inside bottom of the vessel), you can use a chip brush to coat a thin layer of the "slip" and then do the pour over that. The brush removes the bubbles from the silicone/concrete interface. I don't think you could do a good marble effect like this, but for one color pours it should work to keep bubbles out of the surfaces. And as I look at your channel name, it seems to me you've figured out most of what I just said over the past year. I'll go sit down now, but maybe this will help someone else who is just looking at your tips.

You have so much very important info; however, I had a hard time listening because the music was overpowering your voice throughout the entire video.
