What a nice lot of plants in the picture easy fill hanging baskets as well, I have one of those easy fill basket but did not do that well as plants were a bit small to get big enough to cover basket and slugs kept eating the plants.
What does the table look like?
Stiil can't see pic I am on firefox
These are my baskets from last year all of them are the Easy Fill type now I also have 6 wall baskets of the same bit fiddley but I just love the end results when they are growing.
The table was indeed painted with sample pots with equal PVA glue, I got 7 different ones as there was 7 slats on the table and I still have 7 pots full as it took really 1 full pot of paint but as you sort of made 2 pots and it took 1 pot to do the table I still have one left if you get my drift, but one of the chairs I did last year the paint has peeled of which was my fault as I didn't sand it properly and painted it in full sun so it was drying before I could get the paint on, I have done one of the slats in the same colour which I didn't realise at the time (it's the lime green one) so I can do that next year and I also rescued a plastic chair from a skip so I have the choice of 6 colours to use so watch this space.
The link for the hanging baskets isn't working either ho hum so did it the hard way, hope you like them, they are from 2011 as this year was a wash out
Really like the Petunia's hanging basket that how mine should of looked but did not a nice ball of differnt colours but will have to try another time, they all look nice.
I think the table looks good as they do look slightly different colours.
I have a cream raised bed which looks good but when it rains the dirt splashes up the sides so needs a wash and paint every so often, but when the grass gets put down around it might be better less dirt looking.
I have a purple raised bed like the colour on the end slat of the table nice and bold.
Thank you Gardengirl, I have 2 chairs done in the same fashion one is the lime green and the other is vivid pink, I have another one that I rescued from a skip so I think that might have to be purple as I just love purple, why not have colour in the garden apart from the flowers I painted my shed cream and green, why not it's better than the boring brown.

Still no joy.
Knowing Rain & her skills/paintbox bet it does look good.... J.
I have sent a message to Rainjustlearning to see if the picture can be posted another time
I would like to see it
Has it worked this time for you, wonder why it didn't work as I did them both in the same manner.

Wow! What an amazing table. The baskets do look good when fully flowering.
Was the table painted with sample pots?
I have painted my raised beds in many different colours after getting sample paint pots.
The table was indeed painted with sample pots with equal PVA glue, I got 7 different ones as there was 7 slats on the table and I still have 7 pots full as it took really 1 full pot of paint but as you sort of made 2 pots and it took 1 pot to do the table I still have one left if you get my drift, but one of the chairs I did last year the paint has peeled of which was my fault as I didn't sand it properly and painted it in full sun so it was drying before I could get the paint on, I have done one of the slats in the same colour which I didn't realise at the time (it's the lime green one) so I can do that next year and I also rescued a plastic chair from a skip so I have the choice of 6 colours to use so watch this space.
