If I were thinking about it now, I...Hi Patricia,<br />If I were thinking about it now, I'd say it would be a good idea to maybe prime it or at least rough it up a bit. <br />Which still isn't a bad idea.<br />But I did this a year and half ago now, and not one single spot has chipped. <br />It is on a covered porch. However I have a pot sitting outside for several years that I used exterior spackling on a terra cotta pot and it has not chipped either.

However they are so convenient because of they are so light and easy to move around.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by.

I'm sure it will get many more years of use now.Donna, The Decorated Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01772637069933752736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490180327385502642.post-38608219736628900792012-06-07T19:09:02.894-04:002012-06-07T19:09:02.894-04:00Looks great...like the real thing!
