Swap Out Your Current Front Door
Is your door looking a little old?
Or is it a little boring?
Why not replace the door itself?
A new coat of paint not only adds curb appeal, but the options are endless.
Not sure whatfront door colorto go with?
For a more playful look, consider something like coral or soft turquoise.
These are really on-trend right now and contrast beautifully with bright or dark door colors.
Add Some Plants
Want to add some charm?
Consider layeringcontainer plantsat different heights.
A few small topiaries or succulents in unique pots would work, too, Switzer says.
You just need to be creative.
Welcome Guests with a Doormat
Doormats are highly underrated.
Not sure what style you want?
A simple monogram doormat is a timeless choice you likely wont regret.
Consider adding sconces to each side of the door or one bold one depending on the space.
you might even choose one with a sensor so the bulb turns on automatically as you approach the door.
Go with a bench or perhaps even an old-fashioned porch swing.
Even if you only have room for just one chairgo for it.
A bold seat can be fun and sophisticated.
Dont forget to accessorize with a pillow and cushion.
