It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

I Couldn’t Understand Why She Would Pour Concrete Into A Small Gift Box But I LOVE The Result!

Concrete and Copper Pipe Candle Holders

Supplies:

  • Quick dry concrete
  • copper piping 5cm/2″ long
  • small, square/circle boxes

Directions:

Mix the concrete per the directions.

Pour about an inch into your boxes and let it set for a few minutes.

Put the copper pipe piece in the center, push it all the way down and let it all dry like this overnight (or per the directions).

After it is all set, cut your box open.  GORGEOUS!!

These are so cool looking! Industrial yet homey.  Pinterest perfection!

Have you ever worked with concrete?  After you conquer this project, try something a bit bigger like this outdoor tabletop fire pit!

Thank you to apairandasparediy for this super-cute idea and great pics.
