You Will Need
-
Step 1Gather some round glass vases on the cheap from your local thrift store... these were $1- 50¢. Spray the insides with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Step 2Mix the concrete according to instructions. I typically add water until the concrete is similar to pudding or creamy peanut butter.
-
Step 3Pour into your glass orbs and let sit/ dry for at least 24 hours!
-
Step 4Place your orbs into a paper bag and gently (but firmly) tap the glass until it breaks away from the cured concrte
-
Step 5These make a lovely and simple garden detail.
-
Step 6If you have two simple containers you can easily place the smaller on in the middle of the large one and pour concrete around to make a custom planter
-
Step 7I LOVE how these look in your garden. Oh... ps... you could stain/ dye your concrete if you wanted something more colorful.
