can painting tips?

Franklin, LA(Zone 9b)

ok.. i've got an almost 10 month old son
so i go through a lot of infant formula cans, so i just keep them all and save them to make pots for planting...
well, today i went out to paint them up with some exterior paint to make them pretty because i'm probably bringing some plants in several of them with me to the florida swap (hopefully!)
and i opened the can of paint up.. and stirred it really good with a paint stirrer stick thingy and dipped my brush and started painting.. and it was kind of watery and reminded me very much of what i would think white-wash would look like..
what happened to my paint? lol
i slapped it on my cans anyway.. but the majority of it ran off and puddled on the patio...

help, anyone?

lol
