Easy DIY Concrete Planter

I recently teamed up with The Home Depot for a DIY Challenge, my assignment working with concrete. I'm not going to lie, I was super nervous about working with concrete a material I've never used. After a brain storming session, I decided building a concrete planter was a must. However, I wanted to build a concrete planter that wasn't crazy heavy so it would be super easy move around. 

My plan was to make a modern concrete planter with a redwood planter attached. Instead of pouring concrete molds, I applied a concrete overlay, similar to DIY Concrete planters.
