After several messages and questions that we have received in our community of Facebookat Facades World we are going to share how you can do flower pots with stones quickly and easily. So if you are interested, stick to the screen and pay attention to the step by step that we are going to share with you next… Let's get started!
Do you want to know how to make stone pots?
The cans of milk or canned food are an excellent material to recycle and reuse. They have a particularity, they are very adaptable to different types of decoration that we want to make in the interior design o Exterior of our house. We can use our spray or paint cans that look great or use them as they are as a pen for our children's school supplies. This time we will show you how to do flower pots with stones a trend that grows day by day in interior decoration ... let's see.
Materials for making stone pots
- Milk cans
- Stones
- Pieces of paper and glue Akepox 3015 - Quick-setting liquid epoxy adhesive (we suggest this one for better fixing). If we do not get this glue, the white glue can be very useful, even the silicone pistol.
- Clear varnish.
Any type of can is used but in this case to make stone pots we use milk cans that are the largest that exist so that our pot can hold large plants. Remember you can use the can you have at home, it does not only have to be milk.
Step by step to make stone pots
Step 1
We must clean our milk cans so that they are empty and completely ready to use in our crafts. If we use water to clean its interior we can leave two hours in the sun to achieve excellent drying.
Step 2:
We must make some grooves or holes in the bottom of the can so that it can drain the water when watering our plants.
Step 3:
We must line our aluminum cans, if we get white paper that is widely used in offices, much better, but it must be completely covered. How do we line our cans? Very simple, gluing with our glue or paste two layers of paper on the can in this way ...
Step 4:
Once we have our paper base assembled we can start gluing our stones on the surface. We can mix different types of stones or that have the same characteristic and achieve a uniform style. If we weren't able to wallpaper the base, Akepox 3015 Glue - Quick Fix Epoxy Liquid Adhesive is great for getting them to adhere the best. But if we made our layer of paper, the glue or the silicone pistol will do a great job in our decoration because they will be able to be fixed more easily. You choose the method!
Step 5:
We must give it a generous layer of transparent varnish or acetate that when dried becomes transparent. Both have the particularity of adding shine and hardness to the surface.
