Message from Maggie: Taking a break from menus, I’m switching gears to modern home making. I wanted to share a simple way to quickly + cheaply modernize the exterior of your home.
We live in a traditional row house on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. One of the first things I did when we moved-in was to update the house numbers. Instantly this took our dated house- it was built in 1894 in fact!- into the 21st century and gave it a modern feel.
Before:

After:

Recommendations:
We used The Hillman Group’s 5 inch gold numbers. You can find them here. Check out these recommendations for modern house numbers at the links below:
Cost:
At $5-10 a number, we made this easy upgrade for $20 + regularly get complimented on their modern, fresh look.
