Add Instant Curb Appeal To Your Home With Jasmine Roth's Inexpensive Trick

There are lots of creative ways to increase your home's curb appeal, and thankfully, not all of them require you to spend a lot of money. In fact, there are some very simple alterations you can make that have a big impact on how your home is perceived. One thing that HGTV star Jasmine Roth says will instantly add curb appeal without stretching your budget is switching out house your numbers. "House numbers are another quick and easy way to add to your curb appeal, and I take full advantage of this with every single project I do," the "Hidden Potential" host, Jasmine Roth on her blog. 

House numbers are not only a decorative feature but also a crucial element for safety and functionality. Emergency responders, delivery drivers, and guests rely on clear and visible house numbers to locate your home quickly and easily. But they also say something about the style of your home and can signal to a potential buyer that your home is modern, updated, and thoughtfully designed. in another article on her blog, Roth says "It might seem like an afterthought, but your house numbers are just another facet of your home's design that can really amplify your style. And when it comes to house numbers, I really like to throw the 'rule book' out the window. Large wooden numbers? Yes. Numbers displayed on a plant holder? Absolutely. House numbers that are both numerical and spelled out? That's cool!"

One of the easiest ways to boost your home's curb appeal is to make sure your home is easily identifiable. The first thing to consider when choosing house numbers for your home is making sure they are big enough and contrasting with the color of your home's exterior to ensure they are visible from the road. Backlighting your numbers can also help with visibility.  

"Lean into your home's style when choosing numbers. If you've got a home with lots of natural, organic elements, I'd probably go for some reclaimed wood house numbers. Or if you've got a modern beachy home, a metal set of numbers paired with wall-mounted succulents would be an awesome touch," Jasmine Roth advises. If your home's facade evokes midcentury modern, you can opt for structured, sans serif numbers with large spacing displayed vertically, like these Neutra Modern House Numbers from Design Within Reach.

The material used for house numbers can also make a statement. Worn metallic brass numbers, like these Distinctions Brushed Copper House Numbers from Amazon, can create appeal for a farmhouse-style home. In addition to choosing a specific font and style, you can paint your house numbers a bold color, like these bright red ones from Etsy, to infuse some personality into your home's exterior.
