There are several easy ways to spruce up your landscaping and create an amazing first impression for potential buyers! Curb appeal is important whether you’re selling your home or not. Here are 4 ideas to boost your curb appeal:
Add planters to your entryway
Planters are a great way to make your home more inviting. A fresh pop of color will make any guest feel welcome! Keep in mind, the planter size needs to be proportionate to the plants. If the planter is too small, the plants will be crowded. You also don’t want the planter to be too big either because that can lead to root rot.
Also take note of the amount of sunlight the flowers or plants need. Make sure they aren’t baking in the sun all day. On the other hand, make sure they’re not in too much shade if they require sunlight.
Boost your curb appeal with mulch
Fresh mulch instantly brightens flowerbeds and the areas around trees. Adding mulch is a cheap way to make your yard look fresh, updated, and virtually maintenance free!
There are many mulch options varying in price. If you want to cut costs, consider using grass clippings, shredded leaves, or pine needles.
Stay on top of those weeds
Weeds can make even the most beautiful landscaping look tainted. The good news is, it’s not too hard to keep your yard weed-free. Mulch is a great way to choke out weeds, and you can even make your own herbicide.
Add light to boost curb appeal
Illuminating the entry of your house is a perfect way to show off your home. It makes your house look inviting and lets people know you’re home (even when you aren’t).
Adding a light to the entrance of your house is a great place to start. From there, you can illuminate the walkway to your home to give guests a clear idea of where to walk.
