Replace old hardware
Take a look at your mailbox, outside light fixtures, house numbers, and entry door locks and knobs. Hardware outside your home should be in good condition and add visual interest to your home’s appearance. Whichever finish you choose for these items, they should match, rather than being replaced haphazardly with varying finishes over the years.

Replace exterior lighting
Look for new exterior lighting fixtures and consider how they’ll look and function. Lights along a pathway, for example, not only make your property easier to navigate, but they can also give it a warm glow. If you’re buying new fixtures, choose ones mounted in the same way as your existing fixtures to save time.

Add color with container gardens
Container gardens add a welcoming boost of color to your home’s exterior. They’re easy to move around to change up their look and to water. You can create interesting, asymmetrical arrangements from your own plants or buy ones already made at a garden center.

Spruce up your driveway
Over time, your driveway may become cracked or stained. Repair the damage and then give your driveway a boost by staining the concrete. If you’d like more room to park or drive, add pavers, brick, concrete, or stone to the side of your existing driveway to widen it while adding style.

Paint or replace the garage door
A garage takes up a lot of visual space, especially if it’s on the front of your home. Keep it looking its best with a fresh coat of paint and new handles. If it’s seen better days, replace it; garage doors come in a variety of styles and colors, so the options are endless.

Install retractable screen doors
Retractable screen doors add function to your front door, allowing you to open it and let fresh air inside without fighting insects. The sliding design won’t interfere with the design and appearance of your front door, and the housing comes in various colors to match the color and design of your door, as well as your home’s exterior.
