Just a few changes to your front entry might make all the difference!
Lose the Clutter
Clear clutter off the lawn and around your home’s exterior, including hoses and hose reels, mismatched lawn
ornaments, and kids’ toys. Also, refrain from using the front porch as a catchall for sporting equipment and
gardening tools. Move these items into the garage, shed, or side porch when not in use.
Add Lighting
Outdoor lighting helps your house look welcoming at night. If you have a roofed entryway outside your front door, add an outdoor ceiling fixture or a pair of lanterns. Even a partially enclosed area will make the most of low-wattage outdoor lighting and help deter intruders. Or light up and give prominence to features you’re proud
of including beautiful trees and architectural details.
Enhance the Entry
Make your home’s front entrance an inviting focal point: Add landscaping or a few nicely arranged container plants on either side of the front door or near the entry. Vary the plant and container sizes and arrange containers on multiple levels.
Replace Exterior Hardware
Add sparkle to the front entry with stylish—and consistent—exterior hardware. House numbers, mailboxes,
porch lights, and more are easy upgrades to make. Also, the door handle is the first thing many guests will touch, so invest in a high-quality lockset that will give a subtle but solid first impression to guests when
you invite them to come inside.
