From architectural details to low-lift upgrades, today we’re talking about ways to enhance your home’s charm—inside and out.
Meet the arched doorways that enchanted us, walls that wowed with their whimsy and other home features that made our hearts flutter.
Consider creeping fig or ivy for the exterior
The homes that stop us in our tracks are often climbing with greenery. Front steps festooned in creeping fig, ivy winding around windows, jasmine draped over doorways. The organic texture and natural color is a clever way to boost curb appeal—without having to restructure a thing.
We love how the greenery thoughtfully frames the facade—rather than covering every inch—of this classic brick beauty.
A diamond-shaped trellis is always charming—and this version, climbing up the chimney, is no exception.
Swap in chippendale railing
Few things charm like chippendale, and these homes are proof.
Paint your front door
Your front door graciously waves you into the home—offering a preview of what’s to come.
A pop of pale pink is makes a sweet first impression.
We think a wave of color on both sides doubles the wow-factor.
Create arched doorways
Doorways have an important job in the home—they usher you into your next destination. If the room is art, the doorway is the frame, and we all know choosing the right frame is what makes art sing. We suggest creating arched doorways to set the stage with style.
Add texture to your walls
As much as we love wallpaper, there’s something about creating texture through wainscoting or trim that brings lasting, traditional charm to a space. The light blue ceiling, trim and wainscoting wrap this space like prettiest package.
