These look great. We just bought another home that has tons of steps coming off the deck. I think pots on the sides of the steps would look great, but I don't want cheap plastic nor do I want to need a second mortgage for ceramic lol. This is a fantastic idea, looks like I now have a spring project! Thank you for sharing!!

Making a cement bathroom sink can be a rewarding DIY project that adds a modern and industrial touch to your bathroom. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to make one:

Materials Needed:
Cement mix (countertop mix is recommended for better durability)
Water
Mold release agent (e.g., cooking spray or specialized mold release)
Melamine or plywood for constructing the mold
Silicone caulk
Sink template or basin for shaping
Sandpaper or concrete polisher
Sealant (e.g., concrete sealer or epoxy resin)
Protective gear (gloves, safety goggles, mask)
Tools:
Circular saw or jigsaw
Drill
Screwdriver
Clamps
Trowel
Mixing container
Sanding block or electric sander
Paintbrush or roller (for applying sealant)
Steps:
1. Design and Planning:
Decide on the size, shape, and design of your cement sink.
Create a template based on your design, or use an existing sink basin as a mold.
2. Construct the Mold:
Cut the melamine or plywood into pieces according to your sink design.
Assemble the pieces to create the mold, ensuring it is sturdy and leak-proof.
Apply a mold release agent to the inside of the mold to facilitate easy removal of the concrete later.
3. Prepare the Sink Template:
If you're using an existing sink basin as a template, place it upside down inside the mold.
4. Seal the Mold:
Use silicone caulk to seal any gaps or seams in the mold to prevent concrete leakage.
5. Mix and Pour the Cement:
Follow the instructions on the cement mix packaging to prepare the cement.
Pour the cement mixture into the prepared mold, making sure it fills the entire mold evenly.
6. Remove Air Bubbles:
Tap the sides of the mold gently to release any air bubbles trapped in the cement mixture.
7. Cure the Cement:
Cover the mold with plastic sheeting to retain moisture and let the cement cure for at least 48 hours.
8. Demold the Sink:
Carefully remove the mold and take out the cement sink. If necessary, use a screwdriver or chisel to pry it loose gently.
9. Sand and Polish:
Use sandpaper or an electric sander to smooth any rough edges and surfaces of the cement sink.
Polish the cement to your desired finish, whether it's matte or glossy.
10. Apply Sealant:
Once the cement is fully dry, apply a sealant to protect the surface from water damage and stains. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific sealant you're using.
11. Install the Sink:
Install the cement sink in your bathroom according to standard plumbing practices, or hire a professional plumber if needed.
Safety Tips:
Wear protective gear such as gloves, safety goggles, and a mask when working with cement and sealants.
Work in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling cement dust and fumes.
Follow all safety instructions provided with the materials and tools.
With these steps, you can create a custom cement bathroom sink that suits your style and adds a unique touch to your bathroom decor.
