Step 2: Materials

• Life Water Bottle (Amazon)
• 1" PVC Pipe and Cap (Home Depot)
• 6" Flower Pot (Target)
• 8" Flower Pot (Target)
• Quikrete Countertop Concrete Mix (Home Depot)
• Silicone (Home Depot)
• LED Lights (Amazon)
• Aluminum tape (Amazon)
• 1 3/4" Hole Saw (Home Depot)

Step 3: Fill Bottle With Concrete and Place Pvc Pipe in Middle

Step 4: Fill Pot With Concrete and Vibrate Mold

Step 5: Remove Molds After 24 Hours

The PVC cap cast inside the shade attaches to the PVC pipe inside the base for a nice tight fit! We were really happy with how this turned out that we decided to make another version, this time incorporating el wire!
