How to revamp old plant pots

Transform inexpensive and mismatched pots in seconds by spraying them with an all-purpose paint

Time
5 min per pot plus 45 min drying time

You will need
Old pots or planters
Specialist paint, such as Plasti-kote Super Matt spray paint

How to do it
Lay down old newspapers in an outdoor or well-ventilated area. Check that the surface of the pot is clean and dry. Follow instructions on the spray can, making sure you try a patch test on the bottom of the pot. Two or three thin coats are better than one thick one, which could drip. Allow five minutes' drying time between coats.
