    The heat is turning up and beaches are once again the place to be this summer! Adding a new level of design to the outside of your house is a fantastic way to make it stand out from two blocks down. Of course, shutters are a great way to capture the true essence of summer, but let’s dive into what else homeowners can do to make their stay on the beach more relaxing.

     

    Add Vibrant Shutters to Your Beach Home

One of the best places to start is, COLOR! The precise and thoughtful use of color can elevate a home from bland to bold instantly. Take exterior shutters, for instance, finished in shades of yellows, blues, and even greens. Multiple variations of any of these colors can really push the boundaries of added curb appeal. Not only that, but they also act as a functional piece to set the perfect mood depending on the time of day.

Some of the most popular coastal style plants we’ve seen include the all-reliable Daylilies, the sandy and salty soil lover Gaillardia, and of course, the easy-growing Yarrow that is perfect for any sunny garden.

     

    Create a Grand Entrance

Try creating a unique path with different textures, tones, and even landscaping that leads to your front entrance.
