01:19outline of the steps with wood board so that we know exactly where the steps
01:22will be
01:27since the steps go upwards we must also ensure that the sides of the steps are
01:32also cut in that direction and that they don't point up once the first part of
01:40the project is done we can move on to adding the concrete bags in order not to
01:45make a mess we added a plastic bag underneath let's cut these bags open and
01:53pour out the concrete however we can't leave it like this right now we need to
02:00level the mass one step at a time we're going to trowel it just like that so that
02:08the steps are leveled and flat we wouldn't want any bumps here right with a bit of
02:16water you can consider this project done if you want to cover the entryway to your
02:23house with tiles you can do that by following this simple tutorial first we
02:27need to make the tiles out of concrete
02:31once the tiles are cured you can position them however they fit best the best way to
02:41fill up the gaps in between is by adding decorative stones this way it looks more
02:45professional as well the transition looks seamless overall a job well done let's go
02:55over the concrete tiles just once more you can really be creative with them if you
03:00want to by adding some colorful stones just like so you can make some unique
03:07tiles that will elevate any space first trowel them a bit into the concrete so
03:14that they cure and turn solid when that process is over take some water and a
03:21hard bristled brush and scrape out the layer on top
03:26see how the beautiful stones are coming out wasn't this such a great idea and the
03:34best thing about it is that the choices are limitless you can mix it up even more
03:38by adding more colorful stones
03:43the best project is for all the vegetable lovers out there if you want to plant
03:48your own fresh fruits and veggies here's what you can do first build a structure
03:56then add roof tiles tree branches and dry leaves on top then cover it with soil
04:01plant whatever you want and watch it bloom within months this way you can have
04:09fresh produce all year round so far we've seen how to form a concrete tile so
04:17replacing a broken one is going to be a piece of cake let's look back on what we
04:21learned and fix this first we need to make sure that everything is flat so that
04:30the tile doesn't match with the others so once we pour out the concrete we make
04:39sure that it is properly leveled then add the water continue the process until
04:46it reaches the top and you'll be left with a perfect looking tile no need to
04:53worry about this problem anymore let's make a little concrete area in front of the
04:58chicken coop first we outline the needed space then we need to dig up the ground
05:06and flatten it before pouring the concrete place the boards once again and
05:13then add the concrete bags trowel the concrete around so that it's the same in
05:18every corner we want this to be perfect we place the rebars in the middle for
05:26reinforcement before adding more concrete on top flatten the entire area so
05:34that it's completely leveled there now it looks perfect let's add the water on top
05:41and wait for it to cure in the end it should look something like this once you get the
05:51hang of it the projects become easier right let's end the video the same way we
05:57started it by making another paving area covered in concrete we know the drill by
06:05now right let's open up these concrete bags and level the area if you want to
06:12make a bigger paving zone then you're gonna need a few more bags
06:17trowel it to every corner to make sure that it's completely leveled add the
06:24rebar net on top and continue with the process we need just four more to cover
06:32the rebar net completely didn't we tell you that concrete was the champion of DIY we
06:40made all of these projects easily with these bags now let's add the water and
