40 DIY Concrete Projects For Stylish Decorative Items

Believe it or not, concrete is a very versatile material! Despite its rigidity and hardness, concrete becomes an ally of your home if you know how to exploit its stylish, grey look. You can use it to create a family entertainment center, build a patio, or provide a challenging and durable floor that will last a lifetime in your garage or garden shed. But it’s not used just in big projects and buildings but also for smaller DIY projects. Fiber Reinforced Concrete is a material that allows you to shape it however you want without too much effort. Let’s take a look at some projects.

Vladimir Loginov and Maksim Loginov from HandmadeFont, an Estonia-based design company, made the most of it. Lamps, candleholders, table tops, bookcases, and even clocks were realized by mixing cement and various aggregates, such as sand, pebbles, gravel, or shale, with water. “We used an advanced cement mix which gives a solid, smooth, and tactile surface that is more similar to ceramic or aluminum than concrete,” the designers explained on their website.

For today we gather 40 DIY Concrete Projects for Stylish Decorative Items. A steel frame was introduced inside each decorative item, and the material continues to gain strength with time. The result?
