Yes, you read that right! This DIY is all over Pinterest and for good reason—it’s cheap, easy, and the results are incredibly unique. You’re essentially creating a concrete planter using an old towel as a mold.
Step-by-Step Guide:
Materials: Cement mix, a bucket, water, an old towel (textured ones work best!), a plastic sheet, and a container for shaping (like a paint can).
Mix the Cement: Follow the package directions to create a smooth, pancake-batter-like consistency in your bucket.
Dip the Towel: Submerge your entire towel into the cement mix. Work it with your hands (wear gloves!) to ensure it’s fully saturated.
Drape the Mold: Drape the soaked towel over your mold (e.g., an upside-down paint can placed on plastic). Arrange the folds artistically—this will define your pot’s final look.
Cure & Dry: Let it dry completely for 24-48 hours. This part requires patience! Don’t touch it.
Demold: Once it’s rock solid, carefully lift it off the mold. You now have a stunning, textured cement planter.
My advice: Seal the inside with a waterproof sealant before adding soil to prevent lime from leaching into your plants. It’s a fantastic way to upcycle old linens into modern, industrial-chic garden art.
