Add Instant Charm

Plant a Window Box

The big idea: Hang window boxes on the front of your cottage for a romantic look. Overflowing with lush annuals and punctuated with various textures and bursts of seasonal color, these containers will seamlessly blend your house and garden and instantly boost curb appeal.

Notice the details: Proper scale is essential when adding window boxes. The planter should be the same width as the window to avoid a wimpy, barely there look.
