You will need a pair of similarly shaped moulds, Concrete ready mix Organic matter, peat moss, cocoa husks, wood chips or sawdust Rubber gloves, plastic lining, sticks, and water.
Make sure that one of your moulds is 25% smaller than the other. Mix your concrete and you are ready to create your own planter. Visit the blog for full instructions. http://gardentherapy.ca/quirky-hypertufa-planters/
This is what your final product should look like if using round bowls as moulds.
Aren't they just so modern and so beautiful? Such a fabulous job and I love that they are an easy and affordable project.
