Title: decorating pots
Post by: macmac on December 19, 2009, 19:51:24

I've found lots of coloured glass pebbly things and fancy decorating some terracotta pots with them,something to do in the shed after Christmas .
Can anyone suggest the best thing to stick them on with ?Bearing in mind they'll be outdoors in all weathers and they are quite heavy ???

We put them on with no nails to hold them in place, then grout them with a tinted waterproof elastic grout. The 'ELASTIC' in the grout moves when the sunshine or the frosts hits the pots,walls or objects we do like this
