You must first collect some egg trays. If you don’t have all five of the same size, just remove a few rows of trays to bring them all into line. You should have about five of each size.
You should have enough to construct a sizable flower pot. Set them up in a row with each other fairly close together. Assembling will be simpler as a result.
Making cement is simpler than it first appears.
Three parts sand and one part cement are required to make this mixture. Place them together in a mixing bowl or pail.
When everything is combined, start gradually adding water to create a sticky substance.
The egg trays can now contain the cement.
On the egg trays, spread a thick layer of cement.
Make sure the cement is flawless and has a smooth surface by using a shovel to remove any imperfections.
You can take the cement out of the egg tray after 24 hours, and you should have a nice, sturdy mold to use for your flower pot.
Make the flower pot’s initial assembly.
After removing the cement from the egg trays, start laying the slabs.
Place each cement slab on its side and arrange them in a hexagonal pattern.
The rough design of the egg tray should be on the outside.
Then use more cement to affix and secure these slabs.
Without a bottom, a flowerpot isn’t complete.
To prevent dirt from spilling out and causing a mess in your home, you need to do something.
These guys show how to finish the pot by first filling it with sand and leaving just a sliver at the top. Place additional wet cement here in this area.
To allow water from your plants to drain, make a tiny hole in the center of the damp bottom.
Add some feet made of plastic bottles while the cement is still wet. They won’t move if you just press them into the cement.
When all of the cement has dried, turn it over.
The dirt can simply pour out, and nothing will fall apart.
You’ve just created a cool and distinctive flower pot using simple household items.
Include your plants and soil as well. You can grow any kind of foliage in this homemade flower pot.
