Currently Playing: Transform Your Garden with Paint: Fences, Furniture and Pots and More!

Adding paint to the garden is a great way to add vibrant colour and show off your plants. In this video I show you what to think about if you are considering painting parts of the garden. Fences and walls are often the first thing we think of and I show you how painting them can really bring out the colour of plants. Painting furniture is also a great way to turn them into focal points in the garden, particularly against dark green foliage. Finally I show you how in a small garden, painting pots is a great way to add colour. Plus I give you 5 pot and plant combos that are guaranteed to make you smile.
