Hi, just bought a new house, and funds are limited. The interior of this house is very updated, however the exterior is tired and boring, want to punch up the curbside appeal but on a limited budget, maybe some paint, pots, lighting, any ideas are great appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Christine, I recently painted my exterior brick with Behr boothill grey and I love it. But your brick is a lovely colour so maybe just painting the shutters, etc. would add some punch. Senior design editor Cameron MacNeil has some good curb appeal tips in this video: http://houseandhome.com/tv/segment/curb-appeal-tips
