![]() ![]() Now I just need to figure out what kind of plants can handle almost zero sun, since that area of our house doesn’t ever see any rays. But, of course, that’s silly and I can absolutely make room for some pretty plants. I know that’s kind of an obvious solution, but I keep thinking that since our front entry is so tight, we don’t have room for anything. How cute is that?!īoth of these shots are a great reminder to me that putting some plants outside will make a huge difference. ![]() It’s probably a little late in the season to plant something new (right? I know nothing about this), but maybe in the spring I’ll try to create a more interesting front flower bed!

Right now there are a couple of bushes in it, and while they’re perfectly healthy and inoffensive I just don’t like them. This front flower bed from My Creative Days is such an inspiration for me when it comes to the flower bed we have in the front of our house. I really love the light she has above the door – I hadn’t thought to do a light that hangs down like that, but I love the presence it adds! Sometimes all you need are a few pretty plants! I’m actually thinking I’ll end up doing something similar to what she has here, because there isn’t room for much else (though, she’s got a whole beautiful front porch that you can see in her post!).

We’re constantly working on some sort of project, so we always have shipping boxes, extra materials, and other random stuff floating around while it waits for us to deal with it.īasically, we’re just lovely to live next to. We hate the color of the siding and trim (and it’s kind of poorly painted to boot), the front flower bed is full of bushes that I don’t really love, and we’ve done absolutely nothing in the time we’ve lived here to spruce up the front entry or the front of the house in general.Īlso, we’re totally those neighbors who always have a ton of trash and random junk on the side of our house. ![]() We’ve got a giant tree in the front yard that makes me weak in the knees, a cute little tree swing that adds a bit of charm, and a couple of really great bushes that are overgrown but otherwise gorgeous.īut other than that?
