Adding some much needed curb appeal

I am in the midst of improving my front door area to make it more inviting.  It needed some serious help and it's still a work in progress! Of course I somehow managed to delete my before pictures so all I've got are the afters.  So far I have painted the front door a deep blue in Georgian Bay (Benjamin Moore), added some pretty flowers and my new twig lanterns I blogged about the other day.
