I have been enjoying gardening so much the past few weeks.
Timingly, I stumbled across this DIY stone flower pot byProducts Constructionson Youtube.

I absolutely love the look of the pebbles and the base of the pot.

Step 2:
Make cement paste by combining water and cement.
It should hold its form and not be too runny.
Wear gloves and cover the bowl with a thick layer of cement.
Step 3:
While still wet, stick the stones around the cement.
Be sure to press them.
Make a hole in the center using a small pipe or any hollow round object.
Let it dry completely.
Step 4:
Flip it and remove the bowl.
you could gently thump the sides to easily remove it.
Step 5:
Wet the edges and add cement paste.
Stick stones all the way around.
Let it dry completely.
Step 6:
Trace the bowl on the cardboard, then fill the circle with cement paste.
It should be half an inch thick.
Add a bit of cement paste on four sides.
Do not flatten them and add a stone to each one.
After that, stack stones on top and use the cement paste to hold them together.
have a go at level the stones as much as possible as this will be the base.
Let it dry completely.
Once dry, sand it to smoothen the round part of the base.
Step 7:
Place the pot on top of the base.
