OS in the garden

I am trying to sort my garden out as cheaply as possible. I've already started painting the chairs /tables with some paint I already had. Am cutting back bushes, weeding enough to fill a container a day but now I am beginning to see the flower pots I want to do something about them. Unfortunately most are plastic but I don't want[can't afford] to replace them all but was wondering if there was any paint I could use on them
We don't need to do it perfectly - good enough is exactly that GOOD ENOUGH.

    Hi

    I saw some paint in a magazine recently which gave the pots a "stone" effect - sorry, I can't remember what it was called though :confused:- might be worth a look in your DIY store.

    Can you use the plasicote stuff? (I think it's called that). I'm sure they sell it at B&Q. It's stuff you spray on.
