If you are working with a neutral color palette, don\u2019t shy away from color. Add some red, blue or black to make a statement from the street. If you\u2019re more comfortable with a less vivid color, a fresh coating can feel crisp and clean.<\/p>\n<h3>Blue Front Porch<\/h3>\n<p>Get a feeling of the Greek Isles with a front porch washed in blue. If you\u2019re tempted but not sold, try just changing the floor to a blue color for a fresh and fun look. To accomplish this, clean the floor and allow it to dry. Tape off areas you aren\u2019t painting and apply two coats of latex porch floor color. Since it\u2019s weather resistant, you\u2019ll be able to enjoy this all season long.<\/p>\n<h3>Add Flare to Door Knobs<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a little element on your front door, but a bland or rough door knob can really take your front entryway down a notch. You have two options: replace or repaint. By adding paint, you have so many color options available to you. This gives your door personality without being over the top.<\/p>\n<h3>Repaint Your Baseboards \/ Trim<\/h3>\n<p>Baseboards are an often forgotten piece of wood work in our homes. Repainting them is a fairly simple task that makes a big difference. Clean the areas and tape off the baseboards. For baseboards, a white or just offwhite in glossy is the best to protect your paint.<\/p>\n<h3>Change Up Your Light Fixtures&#8217; Color<\/h3>\n<p>Light fixtures are often created in simple black, white or brass. Rather than being stuck with these hues, grab a paint brush. Take down your fixtures and tape off glass and other elements. Use a small brush and replace the color with one of your choosing.<\/p>\n<h3>Create An Accent Wall<\/h3>\n<p>Adding bold colors to your walls can be intimidating. Rather than paint the whole room, attack one wall with the accent. An accent wall can be a color, pattern or other design.<\/p>\n<h3>Make Your Mailbox Stand Out<\/h3>\n<p>Whether your mailbox is on the side of your house or out by the road, take some time to spruce it up. This is a good way to show your style and personality before people arrive at your house.<\/p>\n<h3>Stencil Your Walls<\/h3>\n<p>There is no artistic ability needed. Use a stencil to paint a pattern onto your wall. Use it as an accent, statement or room divider. Make sure you use a hard-bristle stencil brush to dab the stencil, not swipe. This will create good lines and a unique pattern.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re ready to take on a bigger painting project, our crews are here to help you. <a href=\"#estimate\">Schedule a free, no-obligation estimate<\/a> appointment with our team today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fresh paint can give your house a whole new appeal.
