Our Own Curb Appeal Makeover

HGTV must not have read our entry for the Curb Appeal makeover. 

(If they did, they would have picked us for sure.)

So guess what? HGTV, we don't need you. We'll host our own makeover project. 

For the past week or so, we've been hard at work trying to improve the exterior of our house. (And by "we" I really mean a team of contractors and professional painters. We're leaving this job to the professionals.)

Here's an update on our progress so far:

Step 1: We're painting the house! The color we chose looks unfortunately similar to the previous color, minus the blue tint. But this is just the first coat, so we're hoping it looks more like the earth tone we selected in the end.

Step 2: Add planter boxes to conceal the gaps in the window trim and give the facade a little more dimension.

Step 3: Add trims to the planter boxes. (And a little potted hydrangea to demonstrate its potential.)

The foreman on the job. She's very pleased with the progress so far.
