5 Ways to Beautify Your Home for Spring

Spring is just around the corner and, after a long, dreary winter, homeowners are eager to tackle some outdoor projects. The cool spring weather is perfect for sprucing up the exterior of your home with simple makeovers that pack a punch. Here are 5 easy ways to get your home ready for Spring.

5 Easy Spring Makeovers

  1. Update your mailbox - Is your mailbox looking a little lackluster? Why not upgrade your curb appeal with a custom mailbox? We offer a variety of styles that can be mixed, matched and customized to suit your tastes. You can even add a beautiful address plaque to make it easier for guests to find your home.
  2. Potted plants pop with color - If you don’t have the space or time for a full-sized garden - or if you want to add another layer of color to your home - potted plants on the porch or doorstep add a beautiful pop of color to your entryway. Some of the best potted flowers include:
    • Primroses are small plants that bloom early in the spring and are available in a wide variety of colors. Their short stature makes them perfect for mixing with taller plants. They do well in partial shade with medium moisture.
    • Tulips are traditional spring flowers known for their bright colors. Whether you reuse the bulbs or opt for already-blooming plants, these flowers are sure to delight. They love full sun and medium moisture.
    • Columbines have low-lying foliage while their beautiful, nodding flowers can grow up to 2 feet tall. Happy in partial sun to shade, the flowers are attractive to hummingbirds and resistant to deer and rabbits.
  3. Add a weathervane to your garden - From forecasting the weather to adding character and whimsy, weathervanes are the perfect addition to any garden. We have dozens of styles to choose from. Our durable copper weathervanes can stand sentry over your garden or be mounted to your shed, roof, or cupola.
  4. Clean your gutters - While most homeowners dread this chore, it is one of the most important things you can do for your home. Leaves and debris build up through the winter, cluttering gutters and producing the architectural equivalent of having spinach stuck in your teeth. This debris also prevents water from draining properly, causing the spring rains to overflow your gutters. This can cause the water to back up under the eaves and potentially lead to costly damage to your roof.
  5. Decorate your shed - These utilitarian structures are often hidden in the back corner of a yard, but they can add to your home’s beauty! Add character with a single large element, such as a metal star or an old wagon wheel, or add a window box full of wildflowers for color and fun. For a simple change that adds both beauty and function, add a cupola for improved light, ventilation, and character.
