Garden Tools
Your garden tools don't need to be hidden away. Recycle them with paint and turn them into objects you'll be proud to display as well as use; hang your tools from a series of hooks for maximum impact.

Clean the tools carefully in hot, soapy water to remove any trace of soil and dirt.
If your tools do not already have hanging holes in the handles, use a drill to create some, and sand any rough edges.
Use masking tape to shield any parts which you do not want to be sprayed, leaving just the wooden handles exposed.
Spray the handles with a coat of Super White Primer and allow to dry.
Apply a topcoat of Satin Super Pastel Green.
When dry, mask the main body of the handle, leaving just the tip exposed, Spray with Satin Super Real Red. Once the paint has dried, apply a coat of Super Clear Acrylic for extra protection.
Thread string for hanging through each hole, and tie in a loop.
Note: Always follow usage instructions on the reverse of Plasti-kote spray paint cans.
