Concrete Planter Using PVC Pipes

Concrete Planter Using PVC !

I have been wanting to make something with concrete for a while and finally spent a weekend completing this project while i had some free time.

1. PVC Pipes

• 8 inch, 6 cm height
• 4 inch, 20 cm height

2.Concrete Mix

3.Nails(to make drain holes)

4.Duct tape

5.Hacksaw blade

• Use a Hacksaw to cut 8 inch PVC as per first picture.
• Cover that with a duct tape (second picture)

Concrete is really easy to mix.Simply start with a small quantity of powder and gradually add water,mixing as you go.stop adding water when your mix looks wet with clumps.

Pour the concrete mix onto the 8 inch PVC pipe up to a height of 2 cm.At this point you need to ensure that there is no air bubbles in the wet concrete.

Let concrete dry for 10 to 15 hours.

By heating nail in fire you can insert nail into 8 inch PVC Pipe.Note that the PVC need to be inserted just above the planter concrete base .

• Insert 4 inch pvc into 8 inch pvc
• Pour concrete through sides of it Properly.

Let concrete dry for at least two days.

First,Remove 4 inch pvc pipe carefully.

Next, remove nail using a plier

Next,remove duct tape and open 8 inch pvc pipe

And these PVC Pipes can be reused again......

Now you can choose what will grow inside your Planter :)
