Colorful Painting Ideas for Concrete Planters Saving Money on Yard Decorations

decoration patterns and bright colors for painting concrete

Painting is a perfect idea for decorating concrete planters. You can make round pots or use cinder blocks for your green or flowering plants, and then add bright colors to the handmade designs. Painting is cheap and easy, but it allows creating spectacular accents. You can choose geometric patterns, add letters or fun images to a side of a planter. Anything works for personalizing your yard decoration.

Adding plants is an excellent idea to keep gardens green and bright. Concrete planters are a way to give a touch of industrial style to your outdoor living spaces, and paint makes your yard look playful and inviting.  Concrete is naturally attractive and has a unique appeal. The coarseness and rough surface of pots create eye-catching contrasts with smooth leaves and tender flowers. A rugged look works well with succulents and cacti also. Concrete pots are versatile.
