At the Front Door - Street Number Sign
Our front porch is sorely lacking in style. Mostly because I like to spend my crafty time inside, not outside (like my green thumb neighbors) and ALWAYS forget to water plants, which means the nice flower-filled pots my mom added a couple of years ago have sat there very lonely filled with dirt, not flowers for the past two years. Yes, I know that's sad.
However, after Ben spent last weekend power washing our all-brick front porch (and removing the empty flower pots completely), I was so impressed by it's "sparkle" I decided to contribute one tiny little addition -- our street numbers:
Yes, the porch would be much prettier with pots and flowers and a cute little painted wooden chair or a bucket or something...but I'm not sure I have "outdoor decorating" in my talents.
Anyone want to come and makeover my front steps? I need low-maintenance, weather-able decor. Help me out, would you? :)
Here's some inspiration (each picture links to some great tips):
What does your front porch look like?

I love your sparkly house numbers. Our porch is pretty sparse, too. I finally made a wreath I love, which helped a lot. Good luck!

Well, as you know, my porch has the red rocker on it. I do not have a green thumb either, but the past couple of years I've had some luck with hanging plants. I guess since they're in my line of sight I halfway remember to water them.
