Add sustainable, low maintenance plants
There is no easier way to bring new life to your yard than by planting some fresh plants and flowers. Check outAll-America Selectionsfor ideas, which include select varieties of carnations, cosmos, geraniums, pansies and zinnias as 2018 flower winners.
Frame and define your garden with a privacy fence

ConsiderBufftech® Brooklinevinyl fence to incorporate this season’s trend of horizontal pickets into your yard.SimTek®EcoStone® is also a great option – to deliver strong wall performance with a stone look for a fraction of the cost. Plus, both are maintenance-free, fade-resistant and provides a sound barrier to noise pollution.
Update your siding

Give your house a facelift by selecting some fresh siding.Cedar Impressions®shakes and shingles will add a rustic flair to your home, whileSTONEfaçade™architectural cladding system will provide an upscale stone accent without breaking the bank. Both will provide an excellent return on investment should you decide to sell your home.
Paint your front door
Simply adding a pop of color to your front door can completely change the look of your house and boost your curb appeal.Tapea few paint chips to your door to get a sense of what will look best. Choose a color that reflects your personality, and don’t feel the need to stay conservative. According toHGTV.com、亮黄色、黄绿色popula和橙色r trends for front door colors. Just be sure to use exterior paint if you don’t have a glass or storm door protecting your front door from the weather.
Add a front porch or deck onto your home
Expand your living space with the addition of a front porch or deck. Incorporate a distinct railing with the multitude of options fromEverNew®, which come in either vinyl or composite and host a variety of colors, including black, white, almond, rustic rose, warm spice and clay. Consider the idea of adding theUnderShield®water diversion system to a multi-level deck. A true party-saver, the handsome ceiling, which clips onto and hides the deck’s supportive beams, enhances a deck’s unsightly underside and ensures the area underneath stays dry and usable even through summer rainstorms.
