WITH the sun shining, people are spending more and more time in their gardens.

But if you're bored of looking at the sight of your dull and tired fence, then you're in luck…because a savvy homeowner has revealed how he gave his an instant glow up using a bargain buy from Primark.


And the best part of all?

It only cost £1.

Taking to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, Craig Upton shared a snap of the hanging metal flower pots he nabbed from the high-street store.

Back home, he simply filled them with soil, potted some plants before attaching them to his fence – and it's the perfect way to give his outdoor haven a pop of colour.
