Looks messy because you left piles of sand along the edges

Paint and Primer combo stinks. I dislike the latex primer, so I use the Kilz Oil base with a smooth roller, then I use the latex paint when it's dry. For a smooth store-like finish, I use a colored stain. i.e. a furniture piece I had with a black top finish, I sanded the scratches and did not use paint but used an oil-based black enamel stain per the furniture store and it looked like when I bought it.! I Love the bookshelves... GREAT JOB. Repurposing old furniture or glamming up cheap store-bought laminated furniture is fun.

Ty for showing how much water as I haven't seen another video yet that states how much water. Probably shows it on the backof the bag but I want to know before I go and buy supplies later on down the road before I attempt to try this. Tysvm

Great job 👍🏾

You could use a paint roller to give it a smoother finish

Hello Jazmin! I know it's been 3 years & I'm not even sure if you still have this patio. First, I wanted to say, I love your effort, intent & most of all your honesty. Anyway, I just read a about a product that supposedly would have been a far superior option than sand. It's called "Polymeric Sand". You sweep it in & add recommended water it hardens 2 benefits. Prevents bugs, ants etc. also prevents weeds& grass. *If you wanted to go extreme you could pressure wash, remove the rock sections, then use plastic barrier again, quickcrete actually makes a self leveling sand. Then add the stone pavers again, fill in with the polymeric sand so that you won't have to do as much of the high maintenance issues you were dealing with. Again, YOU WERE A ROCK STAR! I'm totally impressed with your effort. & NO ONE KNOWS UNTIL THEY KNOW... AT LEAST YOUR OUT THERE TRYING & GIVING IT YOUR BEST. I ONLY THOUGHT I SHARE BECAUSE I NOTICED ANOTHER VIDEO SIMILAR & HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY OF THE ISSUES YOU DID. FYI- I BELIEVE YOU COULD ADD A MATTE CLEAR COAT TO HELP PREVENT THE MOLD & MILDEW, OR AT LEAST PROLONG IT. let's be honest "nothing prevents mother nature from doing her thing". Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed your video & honesty.

Hearts to dads ❤❤❤

Thank you for sharing this process!!!!

Always wonder how these would look if it gets sealed afterwards. Bet it would really darken up the pavers.

👍🏼🤎

Very NICE‼️

Hello, your patio turned out OK!! Would you please share an update on your patio for 2024?

Any weeds 3 years later?

Beautiful Smile ma'am 😍 🤎

I just stumbled on your video of when you made this, so i clicked on your channel to see the update. One of the last things that you said was, "i can't wait to be using this all the time!" Yep, ive said the same thing on projects. It's all good. Hopefully you can enjoy it more. Sometimes we need a reminder that its healthy for you to get outside and enjoy God's creation. Thanks for sharing your experiences

How many bag of cement you use?

Alright, I see you home-girl! I’m going to get it!!❤

GROCERY HAUL! 🥗🍞🥝$199.29 spent at walmart this week on groceries. I usually meal plan on Friday and pick up groceries on a Saturday or Sunday. Mom-burnout hit me hard and I did everything Sunday morning. Thank goodness for my meal plan/grocery routine because we probably would’ve been eating out the first half of the week 🙃. Here’s what’s on the menu this week 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾 🍞Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, and green beans 👉🏾 This is frozen left overs from a different week. 🥦Instant Pot Beef and broccoli 👉🏾 my husband loves this dish. It’s really delicious and quick 😍! 🫑Sheet pan Fajitas 👉🏾 quick one pan dish! This week I’m trying frozen 🧊🫑peppers instead of fresh. Hopefully it won’t be too watery. 🍝Spaghetti 👉🏾 a staple that’s always in rotation. My toddler loves it 💙! 🍗Ranch chicken and salad 👉🏾 Im gonna do a video on this one. It tastes so good that I bought a thing of ranch seasoning to keep this in rotation. 🍕Garlic toast pizza 👉🏾 It’s a toddler friendly meal and my toddler ate most of it. A win is a win 🏆! 🙋🏾‍♀️What’s on your menu for this week

WE LOVE THAT FOR UU ♥️♥️

Nice job! One tip that I have heard from other people, after you remove the mold, give it a quick rinse from a hose so the concrete doesn't dry on it.

Very nice work!

Nice!

Do they come in a box assembled or you have to combine it yourself?

Amazing job 💯. Thanks 👍

Nice job you make it easier for me Can you do it in top of cement

One year later have you found that the sand washes out? I have one of these molds and plan to use for a walkway but want to avoid weeds. Someone suggested using dry concrete mix sweep well and using light mist from hose. I have no one to help me so projects take awhile. I think your patio is lovely. Sure, if money isn’t an issue hire professionals but I like to see the fruits of my labor.

I think polymeric sand for pavers comes in different colors. I used the standard beige but I'd perfer a darker gray. Beautifully done❤😊

Yha ks for the video it helps me decide to buy a slim tree ❤

I have a problem putting the basket

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I was so lost when I started my project, and now I know what I want to do!!!!!!!! This was the BEST tutorial EVER!!!!!

Good job !!

Great job

Great video

How is the patio doing. I'm getting ready to start my project. I'm hopeful that you are still happy with the work. You've done a good job!

Thank you so much for sharing this important information 😊

You did a remarkable job! Nice!

I just saw both your videos and love your patio! We have a large muddy area we want to cover and this looks like just what we need to do. To cut back on the weeds I'm thinking of using micro clover seeds or phlox. I'm also hoping it will withstand my large dogs- actually 6 large and 1 small dog- trampling over it.

What a great DIY video. Bravo.

I am so impressed! It makes me feel like I could make a patio. ❤️

Looks great !!!

Great step by step informative narrative! Wonderful job!
