Curb Appeal Progress: Phase 1

Monday, October 6, 2014

Curb Appeal. Our house NEEDED it!!!! It is still a major work in progress but the first photo was taken just 7 months ago. For whatever reason, we had ZERO landscaping. Our house was a foreclosure, so it was just a bit neglected. We still have LOTS of work to do. We painted our front door which you can see here and added some simple landscaping. All our plants are still very immature which is sad, but time will grow them and make things look much fuller. I would like to add carriage door hardware to our garage door and we are getting ready to hire a lawn company to treat our ugly grass. We are big time DIYers since we have limited budgets but our grass needs some professional help! We don't have an irrigation system, which in Kentucky is a luxury, but we are finding out down here in the Texas heat, it is pretty essential. We are thinking of saving up for one! 
I encourage you all to take progress pictures of whatever you are working on to give you encouragement. Sometimes I feel like there is so much work to do, but when I look at how far we have come, I am motivated to keep moving! This isn't before and after but rather progress...
