I must’ve really been missing Spring this year. In previous bloggy years, I’ve made i (if any) Spring projects to portion on the blog. This year… well.. this is my 4th Spring post, in addition to it’s non the finally i (*hint* wreath coming!! *hint*). I was genuinely yearning for but about relief from our long winter. I used these mini concrete planters in addition to imitation succulents inward my recent Spring Tablescape, in addition to I promised to portion the elementary tutorials alongside you, produce hither they are….

Pour your mixture into the foursquare molds to your desired height. I made all of mine close an inch high. Tap the mold on the tabular array a few times to unloosen whatever air bubbles. Let it sit down until dry.

Once dry, piece of occupation a concrete sealer to seal in addition to protect the planters. I didn’t genuinely postulate to piece of occupation this because I made imitation succulents in addition to they weren’t going to instruct whatever H2O contact, but I sealed them anyway inward instance I alter their piece of occupation inward the future.

Now that those are done… we’re off to brand the imitation succulents!

LOVE how these petty guys turned out. Here’s what y'all need:

Green Felt

Platinum 6 Machine

Sweet in addition to Succulent Steel Rule Die

Place your felt overtop of i of the succulent steel dominion decease cuts, in addition to curl is through the Platinum 6 machine. You tin double upward the felt into ii layers to cut. One measure canvass of felt volition cutting 4 private succulents.

One succulent was but besides apartment for my tastes, in addition to then I genuinely cutting 3 of them out in addition to layered them. I glued the 3 largest pieces together first, staggering the leaves. Then the 3 medium pieces, in addition to finally the 3 small-scale ones.

Once the planters in addition to succulents were done, I filled the planters alongside moss in addition to placed a succulent on travel on :)

I used them equally house settings for my recent Earthy Spring Tablescape. They looked perfect!
