Mass has class

Tillandsia can do without any soil and can therefore sit on these ornate concrete platforms. We show you how easy it is!

That's what you need for the plant throne:

  • empty milk cartons in different sizes
  • Quartz sand (eg Probau cement / DIY store)
  • cement
  • water
  • big bowl
  • gold-colored aluminum wire (diameter 2 mm / eg of idea)
  • side cutter
  • Tillandsia

And that's how easy it is:

1. Mix concrete. Mix 1 to 1 quartz sand, cement and water until you get a pudding-like mass.

2. Fill concrete into the mold, placing the wire in the middle.

3. Blow out any air bubbles and let everything dry thoroughly (at least 24 hours).

4. Turn the wire into a spiral and insert the Tillandsie.
