Here is what I posted on my house blog (http://chateaulisa.blogspot.com/)
So first of all I had to clean the terracotta pots as I was originally going to paint them (not so sure now) but first they need to be sealed! I also had to go buy more potting mix as the pots I decided to use were a lot bigger than the black pots I had planned to use, but at least these pots mean that the plants can stay in them a lot longer, if not forever.
After getting back from the big green hardware box, I had the sealer required and painted up all the pots and then left them to dry for a few hours. I used this time to finally assemble the wheelbarrow that my sister bought me for Christmas - too many bolts, urgh! I then replanted all the plants and watered them well with some seasol!
Here are the pictures:

The chilli plants in need of bigger pots

Shiny! Just after being sealed

The first chilli plant re-potted and a lady bird appears, awesome!

All 7 plants

Bottom to top - Thai Chilli (my original plant), Hungarian Hot Wax and African Bird

Left to right Naga Morich, Corno di torro ross, Golden cayenne and Red Savina (Worlds Hottest Habanero Pepper according to Guinness book of world records!)

I assemble this wheelbarrow today, it was a christmas present from my sister
