    There are some great suggestions in this video. Exterior shutters really do add to the curb appeal of many homes. If you opt to build shutters, as suggested in the video, consider pricing new shutters also. You may be surprised that new shutters can be affordable, which will also save you time in the long run.

    • @MrLike2surf

      We took our shutters down and trashed them. They made the house look like the 60's or 70's.
      But, I definitely like the other ideas.

  • @aeromedical6750
    @aeromedical6750 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    LOLOL. A lot of great ideas, but no way you're doing these projects at the prices they are displaying. First of all, it's assuming you have the tools and skills to do these projects. That cost alone easily doubles or even triples the cost. Next, many of these projects require the approval of the HOA if you live in a coveted community. Slapping up shutters and refacing your front stairs without prior approval could turn into a very expensive endeavor. This reminds me of those home improvement show on DIY network where they quote these obscenely low estimated improvement costs which never include the labor and/ or consultation fees from the renown interior decorator.

      @jannibal9273 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      They're not tacky ideas, but they are designed for a specific type of "Cape Code" or cottagey style house. Flower boxes and colonial or rustic style shutters look ridiculous, for instance, on a mid-century modern house. The fake carriage windows ARE nasty - they're obviously fake. Just paint the garage door out if you don't want to pay for a new one that has REAL windows in it, keeping in mind that a lot of people don't like windows in garages at all because they may invite thieves.
