DIY Expert Shows You How to Make Your Own Cement Floor Tiles—And Save Thousands

Abby Kulp, a DIY pro, who has gained over a million followers on Instagram and TikTok for her creative, money-saving project ideas—like this inexpensive copy of a $2000 dresser, a cool rock-climbing wall for her boys' room, and easy box molding in her hallway. Here, she shows you how to make your own cement floor tiles for a bathroom renovation—which could save you THOUSANDS of dollars. How cool!  

"A couple of years ago my husband and I bought this fixer upper for our big family. We have five kids, so I'm all about stretching that DIY budget as far as I can possibly take it, which usually means learning how to do the projects on my own through lots of trial and error and tons of YouTube tutorials," Abby explains.   

"I actually made my own cement floor tiles. I know it's insane, but the price tag on the tiles I actually wanted was even crazier coming in at $5000, which blew my mind. It was about $300 to make my own floor tiles for this space. I absolutely love them. I had 6 forms made for this and it took me about 4 weeks to make all of my tiles. Be sure to seal them. I seal my tiles with 3 layers of sealant and they look amazing. They have held up beautifully over the last months," she says.
