My Stepped-Up Stoop

Recently my husband and I decided to repaint out little bungalow in Richmond, Va. I have wanted to do this project for such a long time. We bought the house in 2002 now after 5 years we finally did the house makeover! In a back issue of one of my favorite magazine by Martha Stewart (of course) Blueprint - I found this great house makeover that I just had to recreate on my little home. 

Here is the Martha Stewart inspiration house

After

Here is my house 
Before
Very gray and boring....
After
Happy, yellow, and very cheerful - Yeah!

I love my new little house. Now I just have to figure out what to put in the window box underneath my two front windows.

Fantastic! Your house is so cheery!

You could do Tulips and Daffodils in the spring and some Bright orange, yellow and red nasturtiums for the rest of the season (and nasturtiums taste nice and add colour to a salad).
