I dont know why I do not post in here more offen with as much as I do to my house... And with the line of work that I am in.

This Spring has been focused on the Curb appeal of my house.

Things that are being the main focus was

The New Front door

The front door is a Stocked Item at the Lowe's Store where I work. It is a pre-stained Fiberglass 3/4 lite by Therma-tru doors. This is in there Benchmark series. Lockset is a Kwik-set Ultra max set. It replaced a steel Exterior door that was just a builder grade door.

Exterior paint

And

The Landscaping

I am sure some of you have seen or heard of the one piece poured concrete edging...

Here are some pictures of the edging after it was poured at my house. I have yet to do any work to the flower beds due to weather and a bum toe.

Around the mail box (post will be dug out re-centered and a nice bed will be made here)

In this picture you can see the pattern on the edging 'brick style" with also the groove cut in the back of the edging. The Groove is cut to run rope lighting in the edging to illuminate your landscaping.

I like that rope lighting idea. I have them around my deck.

Lookin' good:thumbsup: I really need to get my butt in gear with my own home improvements.
That concrete border treatment is nice stuff, there's a company in my area called Curb Creator that does that. I like that brick pattern detail they did, i've only seen the smooth treatment done.
