Since I painted the broom, I decided to make some planting pots a color I liked better. I had bought a pack of eight 12" wide pots that were orange in a basketweave look. I wanted them in blue. So I bought a spray paint in "Wildflower Blue" described as "for plastic".
Painting the pots was tricky. I couldn't just hold them and spray. I like blue, but not on my hands.
I finally set up a 4"x4" post wedged into a cinder block and set the pots upside down on the top. With a latex glove on my left hand, I sprayed, turned, sprayed, turned and sprayed. Set each one on a newspaper to dry. Then sprayed the top of the insides.
It is impressive! Orange is now blue.
And having matching planter pots is great. I used 2 for repotting Dracena and 1 for a Poinsettia. I'll be moving other plants to the remaining matching pots soon. Well, I do like blue...
