When it’s time to ramp up your curb appeal, it’s easy to overlook the most affordable design remedy on the planet: a bucket of paint. A simple splash of color can transform your home’s exterior!

  1. Turn Your Front Door Into Something New
    A gray with a pink front door stands out. Be bold.
  2. Give Your Porch Swing a Pop of Color
    Not willing to be so bold? A porch swing is an unexpected spot to find a color, and can freshen up the look of your whole house.
  3. Paint Your Porch Light
    Still too much? How about your porch lights? Using metallic paint, such as copper paint, to restore luster to an old porch light is a terrific idea for enhancing curb appeal.
  4. Jazz Up Your House Numbers
    Use fun accent colors and creatively arranged wood to show some personality through an otherwise perfunctory part of a home’s exterior. Besides the mailbox, think about your doorknobs, handles, and hand railings.
  5. Repaint Your Concrete Porch
    Your neighbors will never believe it’s just paint until they step on it themselves!
  6. Paint Your Garage Door
    For many homeowners, it’s not the actual front door that welcomes them home every day — it’s that drab-looking garage door. Why not put as much thought into where you park your ride as you do into where you welcome guests?
