One of the things that first drew me to my house was its curb appeal, and four years later, I still love to just look at my house. Honestly, when I first laid eyes on the house, it almost didn't matter what was inside, because the outside was so cute. The day my house went on the market was March 17, 2006, and I happened to drive by on my way to work. Mentally, I had already bought the house before stepping a foot in the door, and considered myself a glad possessor of "the luck of the Irish." The deal went down the next day as I was on my way to Boston, via cell phone on the NYS Thruway. Probably not the wisest move, but here I am, four years later, living in what I like to consider the cutest house in the neighborhood.
My favorite part of the front is, without a doubt, the two window boxes. I seem to have the best luck with a simple planting of impatiens, usually pink. This year I decided to throw in a little white for a change.
They're just babies now, but should soon grow to be as big as they were last year.
I'm working on getting all my flowers bought and planted, along with herbs and vegetables. New to the garden this year? Peonies, of course!
Such curb appeal! Totally! Love the window boxes too, I have some on my house, they totally brighten up the windows.
