Here's a picture of my new home when I purchased it this summer. The entrance needs a little bit of love. So far we've ripped the three dated bushes out and removed the fake flowers. Here's my punch list for the rest of the transformation:
- I'm planning to paint the front door within the next week or two. I'm either going with a pale aqua or a bright coral shade. I'm still debating the choice but am leaning towards an aqua hue because my home faces the marsh and is five minutes from the beach!
- Add a new entrance light and house numbers - Repaint the house in a paler grey shade - Add a new full length "updated" storm door - Add a door knocker in either brass or bright nickel. (love both) I kind of love how clean the nickel looks on Miles aqua door below. (image one) - Add new plantings. Boxwood etc..... - Add an updated walkway, stairs - Lose the dated metal hand railings
Since I'm painting the door first I thought I'd share my inspirational images. Do you have a favorite?? If so, I'd love to hear your thoughts! xx Once I choose a color, I'll be sure to share the name and after photos!! |
