3 Ways to Age Terracotta Pots
Mix Chalk Paint and Wax Together to Age Terracotta Pots
I've used 50/50 water and Mayo to brush on pots. It will cause moss to grow on the pot and will age it.
Just cover it in yogurt. Moss grows on it really quickly and it ages it quite a lot
I found a spray paint designed to look like stone at a local hardware store. It goes on to give a rough texture. I don't remember the brand name. (It is also great for furniture, such as accent tables.)
Grab some moss out of your yard. In a blender ( I have an old blender I use) and moss and milk, blend well and paint mix onto your pot.
Here I have always tried to make old pots look new!
