Hello guys....

Today I just finished making a mini flower pot made of cement, which I made yesterday.

A few days ago I just got a new item that I bought online, it's a flower pot mold made of silicone. This flower pot mold can make 3 flower pots at once, with the result that you will get a mini flower pot with a hexagon shape.

To make this flower pot, other things that need to be provided besides a silicone mold are cement, water, a container for mixing cement, and wood or chopsticks.

If the materials and tools are provided, then it's time to make the mini flower pot. First, pour the cement in the container, then add enough water. Stir until the cement and water are mixed, don't get too runny.

Then pour the cement that has been mixed with water into the mold, make sure the mold is full, solid and there are no perforated parts so that the results are still good. Then do the same thing until all the molds are filled with cement.

Once again make sure the cement in the mold is solid and full, by gently shaking the mold, and if there is air foam then break it, so that later when it is dry the pot will not have holes.

Then let the cement sit for 1 to 2 days, until the cement is dry and ready to be removed from the mold.

After waiting for about 1.5 days the cement finally dries, then slowly remove it from the mold, because it uses a silicone mold so it is very easy to remove the cement pot. Then if there are uneven and neat parts of the cement pot, smooth it out using sandpaper.

And to make the pot look more beautiful, then I will color it using black acrylic paint, you can also use wall paint. Make sure to paint neatly all over the pot.

And finally i finished my mini flower pot, it's very nice and beautiful. This can also be used as a scented candle holder, a while ago I was buying equipment to make scent candles, and the container I got was a small pot like this and it made my scent candle look beautiful.
