I love doing this to my pots too. But I am able to buy a product called PRO Quik Crete at my local Lowes. It comes in a small enough can , that is good for one pot. It is premixed and ready to apply right from the can with a putty knife or a gloved hand. I mix some with a brown paint and some with moss green to age my pots or bricks. I don't like anything new in my garden. I like it to look like its been here forever.

None of these plastic pot to stone transformations look realistic... but your actually does! I'm blown away with how lovely and natural that looks, especially with the bits of moss. I have given up on buying terracotta and other heavy pots as they're too cumbersome to manage and often crack in the frost. This looks just beautiful. Thank you.

Thanks. Never would have thought of exterior groat and tile product. Here in Florida, plastic disintegrates and wood attracts ants and rots. Aluminum will stand up, but it;s flimsy and expensive. Metal rusts. Concrete is the only substance that can take it all. Those plastic pots are headed for a new life. I love the rough texture. and your color choices. Looks at once old and weathered.
