BEHIND THE SCENES
HOME TRANSFORMATION
FROM DRAB TO FAB
We often focus so much on the interior of homes, it’s fun to show how much you can transform curb appeal with just plants and new lights. This house came to life with new plantings. The interior was transformed as well, but nice to show you can greatly improve starting with the exterior. This gorgeous home got new plants and exterior lights which gave it a wow factor.
