Paint for bird tables

I have made a bird table, for my mum, out of an old pallet. I have been trying to find some paint to finish it off, but I can't find what I'm after. I would ideally like a pale green or dark cream colour (like they have on the commercially-available tables), and it needs to be for use on exterior wood( sorry for stating the obvious). I can find exterior wood paint but not in the colours that I need.
Can anyone help please?

I have used the Wilkinson garden paint and found it to be very good, easy to apply and giving a smooth and durable finish (so far anyway).
The range of colours is small, but they do a willow, which looks a possibility. They have it in 1lt tins, as well as 2.5lt.

Thanks for the replies. I have looked at these and similar items but the problem is that the wood I am using is not pretty enough to show the grain. Both of the above products are for bare wood and I was after something that would 'hide' the poor quality of the wood.
Thanks anyway.0
