Handy man here. Love this vid! One thing that will help concrete's strength is fiberglass. They sell boxes of fiberglass to mix in concrete for construction. The fiberglass comes in lengths of an inch or two and can easily be trimmed down for the smaller projects. Also it basically disappears into the concrete
I'm an interior architect and we have prop stylists bring vases and decor items from CB2 and West Elm whenever we do our photoshoots. Your DIYs look like what my stylists pay $150/item for. They look so artisanal and unique! Very inspiring!

DUDE. EXACTLY. my mind is blown after every video he makes.
Agree
Your stylist pays $150 a pop because you're paying for someone else's labor, which makes it worth it.
No way someone would spend $150 for that concrete towel. If you're paying your stylist to do that, she is scamming you the extra $125. 💯
There is really no other channel that I've seen with this esthetic. I love it.
Wow, best complement ever! ❤
Nice.make some yarn ball lights Jose
If you want to seal your pieces, use Krylon Matt sealer or varnish… I’m an artist and usually I don’t paint anything shiny or do any sculptures shiny, so I use Krylon Spray Varnish in Clear Matt. It’s great, doesn’t change or darken the colors and it’s virtually undetectable.
You’re doing great! I have a couple suggestions for you. One, because I have made the planters before, yes with a towel, I was so excited to show everyone my new project! When I got the comment “looks like you need to wash your towels more often, I was deflated! However I did experiment a bit and I found I liked flannel, or burlap the best when making the pots. Another suggestion is put your molds on top of your washer while on spin cycle for bubble release, it works amazing! Oh also, when making pots, spray the outside of plastic bag with non stick cooking spray, tug be gone!
Those are great tips! Thanks for sharing!
@@casa_refined you may know already but, there is a medical shaking device that shakes bubbles out. Amazon $52 -up. Dental labs also use these. Seen this on YTuber concrete tutorial
Could those cement/fabric pots be used outside?
@@hsmd4533 he uses Thompson's waterproof sealer a lot
@@hotmixxable thank you!
This rope bowl is one of the best DIYs I've seen. More art than DIY, so good!

Shut UP! You are always blowing my mind! I follow a ton of DYI channels, but you are one of a kind! Those towel vases are giving me life! ... also my favorite tray is the one you wet sanded that you're not a fan of. 😂😂 Looks gorgeous!
Wow, that's so nice of you! In the end I think I fell in love with it! 😎😁
These look like something you’d find at high end home stores, best DIY video I’ve seen! Perfectly matches my aesthetic hehe thank you for sharing !! ☺️
I'm in LOVE with the tray mold. It's so simple and elegant and it must be incredibly sturdy so it's something that would last forever. I'm so glad I came across this video. Definitely subscribing and definitely going to check out the rest of your content!
I loved the all especially the tricket trays. They would make awesome gifts. The holiday is quickly approaching which puts you ahead of the game. Awesome content.
I’m not a big DIYer, but I’m into these! Awesome job! 👏
Thanks Nick! I appreciate that.
Love your channel too Nick!

Love, love, love the "avocado" bowl. The trays were amazing too. Never disappointed in your content. Keep going!
Love the trays and the vintage looking rope bowl- very cool stuff! 🧡
I love the way you post videos of what you try as well even if it doesn't turn as you might expect it, it really shows you have passion doing this and helps all of us learn a lot more than just plain old DIY videos!
Absolutely Love the 2 white concrete pots made out of the towels. Amazing job ❤
Totally in love with the last bowl you made....already went to instagram 😍. You're style is so amazing and I love concrete crafts! Thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Love love everything you do,so original the way you go about your projects and I can’t wait to get started on the bowl and the trinket trays as well oh my gosh can’t wait for the hardware store to open,stay safe everyone😷🇿🇦
Great job on the cement episode. Amazing what can be inexpensively created with household objects, cement , and water. Would love to see an episode about using cement to make an above counter bowl shaped bathroom sink or a kitchen counter top.
Absolutely stunning! I want to make them all! ❤
OMG! I love that bowl ❤️ love how you explain the process!
Oh my, I am just loving you and all your DIYs. All three of these are awesome. Thank you so much for what you do and please don't ever stop.
You NEVER disappoint!!!!! Your diys are always so unique and look like items created by highly skilled artisans.
That's the nicest complement! Thanks ❤

Jorge, I came across your channel by accident but I am thrilled I did. I love love love your dyi-s. You make everything look so simple and they come out beautifully. You are amazing!! Thank you for being on KZhead.!!
Beautiful and thanks for sharing!
Loved the tray that you splattered the paint and then added the paint!!! So easy, and came out amazing!!! Last one was very cool too but much more labor intensive.
Wow, these are fabulous, and they look like you paid good money for them! My favorite is definitely they last bowl, but I also am craving all those trinket trays. I can’t believe all the looks you got out of that technique.
This was satisfying and inspiring! Need to get my hands on some cement !
Wow! I am so glad I came across this channel. Literally every DIY home decor I've been looking for !!! Your work is amazing!! Thank you for sharing !!
Thanks a lot for this Jorge! I hope you continue to explore this medium. I have so many ideas with it, that can be used with all decor not just as a "rustic" touch if you know what I mean
I always look forward to seeing your videos. It’s all good.
You're so kind Maria!
Me too
Totally down with the avocado bowl, Jorge. Friggin' love it! Creating with concrete is so fun. So glad you're exploring further. 👌👍💖
You're right! There's so much potential with it too!
I love project 2...I could so see doing that for like coasters but in like a more coaster friendly shape! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
I am definitely trying the towel vases. So beautiful! Thanks! The trays are lovely too.
Wow, I really like all three but the rope bowl is amazing. Thank you for making this inspiring video. Your teaching technique is great. You're down to earth and make me feel very comfortable and confident that I can do this. Carry on diy king🤴.
Thank you youtube's algorithm for putting this gold on my feed. SUBSCRIBED!
I can't wait to recreate these. This was such amazing ideas 🙏🏾
Another set of incredible DIYs!! You’re an artist. Love them!
Your creativity, execution are fab it always looks so high end like art. It will take you far in the design world.😊👏🏽
Love your appreciation! ❤
That bowl is so amazing!!! I'm obsessed with it. I may try that one out.. also LOVED your last tray you did ❤
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you
I love them all! My favorite is number 1 probably because it looks the easiest but is beautiful! I love that you allow us to see your struggles as well!!! They happen to all of us so I love that you don’t edit them out!!!
Love your projects! Keep them coming! Rope pottery was amazing!!!
This is so helpful! I've been wanting to buy a cement tray but it's like $20 for one with shipping. This is a much more affordable and fun way to make them.
Stunning creations! And looks fun to do. Def gonna try these - thanks for the inspiration ❤️
They actually are fun! Thanks for following along 😁
What a clever idea! I love create masterpieces using things you just meep at home or out of nowhere. It does look authentic.
Those trays would look amazing as a gallery type art installation. Put some command hooks up and it would be stunning!🤩
That would definitely make a statement!
I was thinking same…or maybe mount then on some wood or something….would make beautiful art!
Absolutely love the cement trays, definitely going to try it.💕
I'm happy to hear that! 😁😁
Those trays!!! Simply beautiful.
So I had just discovered your channel yesterday and so far I am VERY impressed. I will, without a doubt. Be making several of the projects you showed. Thanks so much for sharing.
I love the tray you called "tie-dye." With black, gray & titanium white you would maybe get a marble pattern. I see these trays after sealing as charcuterie trays (would need to wash by hand.) Love your turorials!
I tried the towel planter and came out really well! Thank you so much, this was my first ever DIY with concrete!
I'm so happy to hear that. Thanks for reporting back! 😄
I love the dark gray one. You have done great. I work with cement and I'm so excited cement season is back. 🙊
Project 2 and 3 are my favorite. You are very creative and resourceful! Love your ideas!
I made one of those cement towel planters for my grandma a few years ago and spray painted it gold and she loves it!!
Nice! I'm sure they looked awesome!
The trays are my favorite. I liked the one that looked like camouflage when you put the cement in and came out looking really cool.
I think that one might be my favorite one for sure!
Hola Jorge!! Project 1 made for me wow!!! The look of the cement bowls with all the texture from the towels omg you are an artist !!! Gracias 🙏
The tye-dye style was definitely my fave!
Good choices for design projects. I think I will do the towel/cement technique, but in a rectangle shape to hold magazines or unread mail. Thanks for sharing!
I think that would look incredible!
I thought the last bowl was going to be a fail when you were winding the string around but your patience persisted and it turned out great. Probably my favourite!
Oh yes!!! Those white sculture/vase looked fantastic. I have always love it but had no idea how to purchase it with such a high price. Thank you so much for sharing this. I think that I could have some. fun with my littles during this summer holidays.
WOw! Great projects. My favorite is the vintage pottery bowl - just fantastic results!

Jorge this is the best DIY video on KZhead! I loved how all of your projects turned out and I am going to try all of them.
I'm glad you're enjoying my work!
These are actually amazing! the end product always looked better than the process made it seem like it would!
Great video. I appreciate all the work you did to show us various pigment /color techniques thru experimentation. They look so good together. Very nice work... Your antique bowl looks beautiful.
Wow, that last bowl looks like some ancient artifacts.
I am so glad I found your channel ~ you are so creative!☺
I'm happy you are here!
❤LOVE the concrete/rope bowl! ❤😍
I love that you include the pieces that aren't the best along with the totally awesome ones!
Wow, you're at 11k subs now? Congrats, it's all so well deserved. I love the aesthetic on your channel and your sense of humour makes it so much fun. Exhibit A; Jorge: "I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm just mixing the crap out of it". Result: a perfect decor piece that looks like you purchased it at a high-end outlet. I love that you didn't hide the mistakes and turned what you considered a 'fail' into a success. It was hard to pick a favourite but the 12 cement trays you made - each one unique in itself - was brilliant and together they could make an awesome piece of wall art. Just so talented.
THANK YOU! I'm happy that you've been enjoying my mess 😂. I still can't believe we've grown to 11k
I’m so happy he does modern design! Most of the DIY decor is either farmhouse or shabby chic, which isn’t bad, but if that’s not your decor style, those videos aren’t helpful much. Like I’m not going to watch a video on how to plant a rose bush if I’m trying to learn how to replace my tire.
I love your avocado! I'll make a big plant pot this way!
They are amazing. I loved the camouflage looking one. Can’t wait to try ..
I'm absolutely amazed watching your talent unfold. I'd love to hear about some of the DIYs that you did as a kid someday!
Oh boy do I have many 🤣🤣
Thank you for inspiring me with your STUNNING pieces! You have impeccable taste! I really love how your pieces are distressed, yet clean, sophisticated indeed! Well done! Take Care, Amanda
Wow, I just discovered your channel and I'm blown away! I love your projects, so inspiring, thank you so much for sharing.
The bowl! OMG! Stunning!
Jorge you are simply very talented , thank you for sharing, always looking forward ♥️
I appreciate you for following along Eric!
Yaaaas Jorge, I love the cement bowls created using wash rags. I've seen this done by other KZheadrs as well. I will be duplicating this. I love all of your DIY's created in this video. TFS.
Thanks for tunning in!

Just found your channel and I'm in LOVE! Thank you for giving us ideas that don't break the bank, made my day
I love all of the trays. Such creative options for different effects. The final one was my favorite. An Avo...yes, I see it too!
I like the one that looks most like concrete. One of these would work well besidw your sink with soap bottles.
Do a give-away for the rounded edge trays 🥰
Love the idea!
Oooh! I want one!
I love that you're playing and getting totally spontaneous and not worrying much about if it doesn't work!
You are so creative and beautiful work here !!! Thank you for the inspiration!!! Loved it 😍
it's all just incredible.
Thanks Megan!
Your Christmas gift shopping is taken care of Jorge! The trays are beautiful, each in its own way. Can I just add, your grass looks so healthy! I love love love how the bowl turned out. Yeah, you probably could've stopped a few paint layers early but I imagine you were having a great time!
I have always loved concrete and soft stones: in architecture and decor. I am so happy that I can diy decor items ❤️❤️❤️
“It kind of looks like an avocado” 😂
I love the concrete look! Yes, those were some really awesome DIY’s Jorge! 👍 Can you please make a RH Heston desk dupe 60”? I would love to see that! And make it too 😉
Love it when you say “I think I wanna take this a little further”...that’s what makes your content so good!!
I love your simple and doable ideas and also how chic they are !
i just love love love the rope bowl.......looks lovely. Thanx for sharing!
Love these! Thank you so much for sharing your techniques. I make art jewelry and looking to turn them into bigger cement sculptures. Been watching vids and this has been the most helpful for what i want to do :)
Always great ideas and honest commentary from you and that I love. Keep on putting out!
These were so good!!! And my favorite piece was that last rope one. I will have to try this!! So pretty!!
I love all of the trays! Each one is so unique!
They're all so amazing! Great diys! So aesthetic 🌟🔥
i just discovered your channel and I loveeee it!!! I love how you incorporated all the different techniques you tried!
Love the last one with different colors.
Love the coil vintage bowl!❤️
