A sense of balance
Symmetry is not only pleasing
to the eye, it's also the simplest
to arrange. Symmetrical
compositions of light fixtures
and front-door accents, such
as urns and pots of flowers can
create welcoming entryways
and boost curb appeal.

Install outdoor
lighting
Low-voltage
landscape lighting makes a
huge impact on your home's
curb appeal while also
providing safety
and security.
Fixtures can add
accent lighting to
trees or the house
or can illuminate
a walking path. If
hard wiring lights
is not an option
choose solar
fixtures.

Mailbox
makeover
Mailboxes should
complement the
home and express the
homeowner's personality.
When choosing a
hanging drop box, pick
a box that highlights
your home's trimmings.
Dress up mail boxes for
curb appeal by painting the wooden post
to match the house's exterior color, or by
surrounding it by a perennial garden.

Welcoming
Porch
Create a warm
welcome even
before guests
arrive at your door by
placing a few chairs
or long bench on your
porch. Match the style
to your home decor
and color scheme.
Remember you don't
have to have a full
living room of furniture
outside—a simple place
to take your shoes off
on a wet day or to sip
lemonade and watch
the neighborhood kids
play during the summer
will suffice.
