Spray Painting Planters

I don't know what I would do without spray paint! I use it on pretty much everything. Last spring a good friend handed down to me some planters that she didn't want anymore with a topiary already planted in them. These planters were originally from Restoration Hardware and are amazing! Something I would always want, but never buy for myself. These planters were defiantly weathered, but still amazing. This spring I decided that they needed a face lift. I was at first leaning towards painting them white, but then thought of how dirty they would always look so I decided on just refreshing the current look. I choose a Rustoleum textured slate color from Home Depot.

{After :: I also planted some petunias and alyssum}

All the rust is covered and the weathered spots are all gone! They look almost as good as new!

This is what they look like today! The flowers have gone crazy!

 I LOVE these planters, they are definitely the focal point of the patio.
