The "travertine" balls look great on your coffee table! Stroke of genius to distress them.

Pro tip- if you let some of the air out of your yoga ball, stick a funnel in the hole and put a few cups of sand in it before blowing it back up, that adds movable weight to it, so it doesn't roll around when you are putting your cement on it.

Love how you show the struggle and allow yourself to be vulnerable. Makes me feel more normal as I attempt my own DIY projects. Thanks for your great content and ideas

My favorite by far was the one that looked like a ball of yarn. Really like the ones made from the glass globes too! All of them were very cool!

Love this !!! What kind of tape did you use?

I love everyone ! 100 years ago when I was a child I was involved with a summer camp we made the coolest sculpture that I have never forgotten what you do is you take a plane balloon you wanted a little bit to blow it up first so it’s maybe around the size of your glass smallest glass orb about that size when you blow it up but we didn’t blow it up well they did is they very carefully just took the balloon and put the opening just gently around a funnel the funnel then was filled with plaster of Paris that stuff drys very. MORE TO COME DEB

Those were some huge projects! They turned out well. My favorites were the “travertine” orbs and the shot of them on your coffee table was 👌🏻. Thank you for these tutorials you do. I look forward to your videos. Keep them coming!

the smaller balls came out great, the large ones did too of course!

The imperfections were perfect!

The two "mistake" balls are my favorites! They came out so great!

I can appreciate how long this video took to make. I cannot choose my favorite as I loved them all but if I had to I actually liked the two smaller ones on the coffee table. I love your channel. Love your humor.

Love them all. Favorite for me… the 2 light fixtures. ❤️

I love your personality and the way you approach your art…..”this is just me, no retakes, no trying to be perfect.” I appreciate that let your viewers see the imperfections and the ooops that happened. I’m subscribing.

The first, largest ball worked out the best, also I am also fond of (and will try) making the open-network-of-ropes sphere, as well.

The rope ball is my favorite. I can see having three of them, each painted a different color, like orange, lime green, and lilac purple!

ALSO WOULD BE COOL TO MACREME AROUND ONE THEN POUR CEMENT ON IT

You are the undisputed sultan of cement!!! I am going to try three sizes using the fabric technique with lighter fabric. I might just leave the balls in the shell. Thanks so much!!

Thank you, Jorge, for your willingness to share your experimentation. Personally, I have a tendency to jump into a project and not research it as much. Watching your video helped with that. Great job on all the projects!

Admirable arte. Gracias Jorge por compartir tus experiencias.

I loved them all… especially #3 when you beat them up! ⭕️🌀🔘🟤

Love the texture you made on the concrete balls. So much more interesting than just cement.

I love that you are willing to do that hard projects that take time. Great job!

I loved all these spheres. I have done similar forms, much smaller of course, with ceramic clay bodies. The stippling on your smaller glass created spheres is the most common finish I use. You showed that the possibilities/applications of these art pieces is limited only by geography and imagination. Sometimes thin walls struggle in extreme climate swings, just going thicker and dealing with the additional weight makes sense.

Yes! Don’t stop making videos. I love your ideas!

I love painting with my hands. The messier the more fun. I think the glass globes were my fav. But I definitely loved the first big yoga ball technique. Loved this. Thanks for sharing!!!

I would love to see more of these projects that are who easy and look like a million bucks. Thanks for all of your time, CL

Love these!!!

I'm amazed again by everything with what you did with each project. They're each my favourite too, and I liked the glass ball better after you marked it up. I would also like to see how to clean up cement. And I like the Jazz music too. Thanks for sharing and teaching your creativity!👌😊

I love them all.

*Love* . The yoga ball and rope sphere are my favorites. I pick up glass shades at the re-store, super affordable at $1. Your cement projects are epic! Kudos.

These turned out very well.

I love this idea!!! You made some amazing architectural garden additions!!! I'm thinking of trying the glass globe technique. I think it would make a fabulous moon!!! Thank you for sharing!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Love all of these ideas 😱 I'm already addicted to the concrete spheres in the glass light globes. I pick them up when I see them in my area thrift stores. I put them in my my hosta plant garden and plant moss near them. It grows right up next to them and looks so cool. Thanks for all of the fabulous ideas☺️

FABULOUS! I love when you work with cement. I love them all. TFS xoxo

The larger ball's in your yard can be used as great extra seating...wonderful idea...

Wow - the happy accident with the glass light fixtures looks amazing. They look so high end styled on the coffee table. I love the texture and look your hammer added to the finish.

Love, Love, LOVE this project!!! I wanted to give this a try when I first saw these,, like you,, years ago and NOW I GONNA DO IT!!! THANKS for the inspirational PUSH!!!

I’m going to try them all! Great job! Thanks for sharing 💕

These are great! Thank you. I've seen these in landscape stores for a pretty high price. I've been dreaming of having a variety of sizes look as though they are rolling down my front lawn. I love it ! Thank you so much!

With the towel ball, I was loving it after the first layer of towels with all of the gaps and was sure that some spagnam moss would take root. Or cake it in dirt and plant grass seeds on it. A ball of grass but the gaps look good. Have plants growing in and on it. All will save me big mon3y. Thanks for the tutorial

The glass balls turned out pretty good, but I would have either used less cement and coated the inside a few times between drying - or- I might have just painted the outside of the globes and leave them galss. Maybe, I dunno. I have way too many inflatable balls I've collected for cement projects. Ha! Ha! I'm definitely going to try the rope one with twisted strands of cloth. I'll probably sew cloth strips together to make a long piece about 3"-4" wide to twist, or maybe I'll find some interesting ribbon-like material somewhere. Thanks for the inspo! ✌️😎 Do you ever try to make more refined pieces? I have a box of cement called feather finish, it's very fine, making sanding it to a polish easier. I saw it in a cement countertop video. I haven't tried it yet but I bought it for a mushroom art project. I plan to polish and stain/paint the oversized mushroom caps in earthy neutrals with splashes of dirty/dingy jewel colors. I don't do videos, but I might try a video for the mushroom project because I think it's going to turn out pretty awesome!

Wonderful!! My favorite is the 3rd one, the distressed ones you said you thought were a fail! I love them!♥️👍👏👏👍♥️

Love it!!!! Yesssss I was thinking the same thing. I would love to see you do the Crate & Barrel sphere planter dupe 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

AWESOMENESS! Love these projects!!!❤❤❤

Super awesome tutorial!! Thank you for sharing and for the inspiration!

These Are Perfect!! We moved to FL last year. Drastically downsized into a Small, 1 story, stucco that kinda has a mid century modern look in front. I'm playing on that looks & had the bushes along the front pulled out. Designed a curved bed. The plan is a riverbed rock ground cover over plastic. Only 3 cuts for something live. Then use pots for plants, flowers. I Want Large Rocks. They are too expensive. So I will make them. I've been watching so many diy videos on it. THEN, you showed up on my page. These are perfect for my look. I might even say easier too. We'll see lol. Perfect for the clean MSM look. Well, a Modern, MSM, Florida Coastal, tropical look. I'm so excited.

Thank you for all this beautiful instruction and hard work! So inspirational….love your bravery!🥰🇨🇦💜🙏🏼👍🏼😉

I appreciate the time you took to make these! I’ll prob skip the towel one but I will for sure try my hand at the other three!

They turned out great! 😊💖 We made a Spector years ago at Halloween and used cheese cloth with the cement mixture…it drapes well but it is light. A couple layers would do it…love the rope one but the variations look excellent together.

Great job Jorge!!!! These are so architecturally interesting outside with your landscaping. You know what I love with concrete and with spheres in particular is Wild Yam flowing out of pots next to the sphere, or outdoor ivy vines! I LOVE that look! Makes me think of the Antique (or new @ Anthropologie) busts with the empty brain area for planting greenery.

I think they all turned out great. But if I had to choose the rope one I like the best. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome!!! Love how "real" you are, no fakeness! The glass globe balls actually look really great!! Well done!

The rope with spreading garden flowers put underneath to grown in and around the floor of the ball. Got my space picked out for my project.

Love your stuff Jorge! I too love contemporary and that is the direction you seem to take. Love all your videos!

The CEMENT SPHERES were my favorite. For the Christmas, Holidays add LED lights

Love this large cement orb idea! As far as your speaker ad,You may be cool with your friends using this speaker but you neighbors with kids or different sleeping patterns than yours are going to strongly dislike you. Just make sure none of your neighbors are vengeful people. P.S I made a smaller orb with an old globe I found in a thrift store. I used a similar tape but for drywall. When you put your first layer on instead of painting or troweling it on wear gloves and rub it into the tape, it grabs better. Four coats one day apart and then we decorated it with a mica colors /blue & green and made it a cement globe. I did seal it so it would last in the garden. P.S. if you do this with a paper/cardboard board (most globes) drill a hole so the cardboard paper can dry and won’t cave in.

Absolutely stunning! I love your talent with the sack crete (if you will)! You’re amazing

You should've draped the towel over the ball, and let the edges just drape down til it started to dry and shaped the towel edges flavored out and used it for a planter to go with the orbs. Because the towel gets so heavy when you do your way. Check out some of the Asian videos, they make all kinds of cement pots orbs etc... I love the small ones you painted and the biggest one!!

They would make a nice water fountain.

I think the open one is the prettiest and they all look good together 🤩 I knew that if anyone could do it you could. Thank you Mr 1-2-3

my favorite r the very small ones used as decor luv ur chnl great DIY ideas

I loved ALL OF THESE!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

I like the natural look of the beach ball one. That's the one I would do. They are all nice, great job.

Well done, Jorge! You crushed it.

I think you did fantastic I love all of them.So many options Thankyou Wow

They’re all good but I think I like the small ones on your coffee table the best. Probably because I live in an apt and they’re the only kind I could use. 😊

Sometimes I use wet soft brush to even out mortar, mostly because I'm not very skilled at using it, but also it's much faster than sanding it. Idk if it works with cement, but for the same reason I'd rather used some strong adhesive mortar for such project. Thank you for the inspiration! You're doing amazing job

Love, love, love the rope one. You're a great teacher. Keep up the good work.

Great job. Love these orbs.

Thank you. My spring summer projects. Wish me luck

this is so funny! i was just trying to figure out what to do with a non used fireplace that wasn't logs or a flat screen (cover) and i was googling this title over and over again with mixed results!

Great job on all of them my fav was the rope one and the exercise ball!

I always LOVE your cement projects. The one with the towels was my least favorite. But the other 3 were way cool!

Awesome I love the globe balls they look like the moon

Amazing! Love your channel and hope to see the cement clean up video soon 🙌🏼

I Think you did an excellent job with all of them. Least favorite was the one with the towel. The most favorite is the one with the rope.

This looks fun. I will definitely do this soon. Thank you for posting.

I love them all. I collect rocks anyway, so these are right up my alley.

They look fabulous on your coffee table!!!

The ones you thought you messed up are my favorites... but I love them all!

Very cool. I like the little ones and the one with the strings. DIY planters would be great. Would love to see you make cement candle holders for poured candles.

I love all of them especially the 2nd n 3rd projects

Love your videos! I really like how these orbs turned out, hard to pick a favorite because all of them came out great. Thanks for sharing and inspiring me to try my hand at making my very own. 😊♥️

Thank you Jorge:) Love this!

I HAVE to do this project. I took my 13yo son river rafting in Costa Rica in 1996 and the country is full of ancient stone spheres. People have them in their yards, fields, everywhere. They don't know the ancient purpose for the spheres. THANK YOU!

they are all wonderful. travertine look is my fave

The 3rd project is actually my fav!

Good job ! Thank you for sharing.

So worth it! I LOVE them. I’m inspired.

Love the textured balls!

I certainly will try making some of the orbs. Great videos.

you inspired me I'm definitely going to try and do two of the first option you did👍👏👏👏

They are gorgeous roll ball❤❤❤

Nice job love each of them !

Loved these. Think I will make some of the beachball/rope orbs and stake them to the ground with landscape stakes so they don't fly away in the wind.
