Cast Aluminum Kensington Mailbox

Trade Out Your Mailbox

Do you have a standard mailbox that is the same as every other one in the neighborhood? Trading it out for a beautiful and ornate mailbox, such as the Oakland Living Kensington cast aluminum mailbox, is a great way to add curb appeal to your home and get the neighbors talking. Because it is cast aluminum, this mailbox is built to last and will quickly become one of your favorite parts of your entry.

Add Artificial Plants to Your Landscape

We know that it is spring, but Mother Nature seems to be under the impression that it is still winter. Trick your yard into looking like it has been a warm and sunny for months by trading out your frost-bitten natural plants for beautiful artificial outdoor plants. They look just like the real thing but aren’t subject to the damaging effects of fluctuating temperatures.

Feed Your Grass

There is no substitute for a lush green lawn. If your is like mine and yellow from the harsh winter, revive it with a healthy feeding of grass food. These products are readily available at your local garden centers and there are different types for different grass species. Let the salesmen at the garden center help you choose the grass feed that is best for you.

With these three steps, you are sure to notice a huge change in the appearance of your front yard.
