    I am 70 years old, and I deep clean my 2200 square foot home very 7 weeks. And I wash the inside and exterior windows every 7 weeks. If you stay active, you will live a longer life. I also take everything out of the garage and wash my epoxy floor. You guess it every 7 weeks.

    I love adding charm to your entry with a pretty wreath, potted plants and a nice doormat! Those tips are great no matter the size of your home. We live in Arkansas, so we have pink azaleas, boxwoods, roses, and tons of hydrangeas in our flowerbeds. For my potted plants a few of my favorites are petunias, guara, verbena, salvia, euphorbia and impatiens 💕

    We are currently working on the landscape and curb appeal plan for our little cottage renovation that will kick off later this year and I’m really focusing on bringing in charm with perennial plantings and defining areas for us to sit and enjoy the outdoors and hopefully meet some neighbors. I’m also considering adding window boxes. I’ve never had any, although I’ll have to get a drip line or something in them for watering, because we’re only at the cottage once or twice a month! I want the little porch to be super inviting so I’m adding a climbing rose and a pretty lantern. I hope these ideas get you inspired! Thanks for watching!! 🏡❤️

    Having lived in areas like that, where you don’t want to attract too much bad attention, stick to things that look attractive, but not expensive. I totally get not wanting to be “too pretty!” It’s easy to feel like the nicest house in the hood, especially if your neighbors don’t do anything. Here’s a few suggestions: Good, even lighting near and around the whole house is important in keeping intruders away, but keep it practical looking. Avoid fixtures that are flashy or blinged out. It is important that there are no dark spots. Motion lights are good. They have solar options too. Keep plants smaller so no one can use them as cover. Keep thorny plants by the windows and near doorways to also discourage lurkers near entry points. The colors of them can still be complimentary to the exterior house color. Keep any external home improvements monochromatic so nothing jumps out. Like, if you put shutters on, keep them about the same color as the walls. It’s okay to make it something nice to come home to!

  • @firestick4991

    @firestick4991

    Ай бұрын

    Oh yeah, keep portable things to a minimum. Plant in the ground so no one walks off with nice pots. If you want seating, use inexpensive materials like wooden crates or build something in. If the distressed look is prevalent in your area, go with “distressed” looking improvements. Like the crates for seats, find older ones with peeling paint. If in ground plants aren’t an option, use short, raised bed boxes with wood or metal that will weather over time. You can work the feel of your area into your design, so it’s something you can enjoy, without standing out too much from your neighbors. Or, just keep your nice hang out spot in the back yard, or patio!

    One more thing. Never underestimate the power of your neighbors being inspired - by you. When I first moved into my area, everyone was dark and shabby. I put up a variety of lighting around the property, string lights and solar lights more specifically. My neighbors started to light up their houses not long afterwards. Now, a lot of people have landscape lights on at night! It’s beautiful 🤩

    Honestly, my team and I spend hours and hours a week searching for images that show visual examples of what I speak about in each video. We try very hard to show diversity in size, style and architecture, truly we do. If a home has been professionally photographed, published in a design magazine or online article, or shows up in a Pinterest search, we've probably looked at it. For our videos we really try to show the aspects of good design principals, those ideas can be used in any size home, apartment, condo, or townhouse. Im working on a 1,700sq foot cottage design right now that I'll be publishing on the channel later this year, I'm excited to share the whole process with our KZread community!
