  • I made a large DIY planter that. also serves as an outdoor coffee table using plywood steel mesh and Quikwall Surface Bonding Cement. This cement plaster has fiberglass strands in it and is super strong! This planter has a durable finish that allows it to be a modern outdoor furniture piece or it can be used inside.

    I can't unsee toilet anymore once you mentioned it. I already saw you making faux rock the same way and I really dig the idea.

    Maybe my favorite of your combo planter/tables yet

    This is one of the best ideas I’ve seen in awhile. I imagine a unique corner table, plant not in the way of one’s vision.

      a corner planter would be a great application!

    I saw avocado until you said toilet. Now I see both. I don’t think it’s an issue. 👍🏼

    I don't see a toilet. I see 3 of these around an outdoor firepit in my backyard with my grandsons roasting hotdogs & pull lemons off the tress in the planters. That is a really unique idea that can be so versatile & mobile if need be. I'm not handy with power tools so maybe i can show this video to my daughter & grandsons & we can get the hubby to help us. He can do the labor & we will do the the clean up. Thank you for posting. Have a great week.

    I'm imagining sculptural planters in and amongst the whalebone-looking windmill blades you mentioned on the Modern Maker podcast set against a red-rock backdrop.

  • @gordonedmiston2227
    @gordonedmiston2227 4 года назад +3

    Love the concept and the ability to adapt to a bunch of design shapes.
    Would it be correect to assume that the lath + concrete is stable enough on its own to support itself if the interior structure decays? or does it provide a waterproof barrier to keep the plywood dry?

    I thought the same thing about the toilet, but I'm not mad at it. I like this a lot. I think I might have to do a few of these for the back yard!

  • @emptynestgardens9057
    @emptynestgardens9057 3 года назад

    Lol 😂🤣😂 all the way through I said to myself "I can't unsee a toilet" Then you said Avacado and I chuckled "nope toilet seat" 🤣😂🤣😂 Great design though and got me thinking about something similar for a garden seating space only I'd pop a Canna bulb in the planter cut out.

    What a great project! Is stucco the only Quikrete material that you think would work here? I like the look of cement over stucco but I don’t know if it would adhere to the curves. I’m wanting to create a “riverstone” table with a super smooth polished finish.

    My thoughts went more in the line of a boiled egg cut in half than an avocado. But I guess toilet is kind of unavoidable when the hole is empty... :-)

    Plants will become root bound and die if they are not allowed some space to grow. All too often, the plants are too big for the pots from the nurseries, so they should be repotted into bigger pots before being placed for display so they flourish with appropriate sunlight, water, and fertilizer.
