Evenly coat the outside, top rim, and inside rim of your pot. While the main portion of the planter’s interior may not be seen, the inner rim at the top may. Once all surfaces are evenly covered, let dry overnight. If you painted on top of newspaper, move your planter off of the paper while it’s still wet, otherwise the newspaper may stick to the planter as it dries.
Once your first coat has dried, you can reapply, but I found that one coat did such a great job, I didn’t need a second! And since I only needed one coat, one can ($6) could be used for two large planters. Win!
Fill your planter to your heart’s content with seasonal flowers, shrubs, and plants. This will add a beautiful pop of color and style to your front porch or patio area. (If you don’t have any pots that need rehabbing, keep a look out for great shaped pots that neighbors may be throwing out!)
