Adding new life to your landscape can seem overwhelming. Tackling small achievable upgrades in a weekend can get the momentum started and make a big difference in the overall curb appeal.
Start with your door. Painting or staining the door can add new life to a tired entrance. Look at your home’s style, siding and trim to guide you in the process. Select a durable paint or stain suitable for this purpose. Then dress it up with a seasonal wreath and fresh new door mat.
Add a few container gardens to the steps. These make a colorful welcome for family and friends. Include flowers that complement the door color and your home’s siding and trim. Use reds, oranges and yellows to draw attention, energize, and evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. Create a sense of calm with blues, purples, and greens.
