charm and curb appeal, and is a doable diy project.

Most people think of Victorian houses and all the trims they typically used, but any porch can benefit from a bit of trim, whether it is simple, plain brackets or elaborately carved arches.

1. Focus on the front door. Your front door is literally the gateway to your home, so dress it up. First,repair and replace any old or tarnished door hardware. Then clean off any dirt from the door's exterior and add a fresh layer of paint. Your door will appreciate the royal treatment. More tips: https://brightnest.com/posts/how-to-make-you...

Update: I would like to address the two biggest questions I've received regarding this project:

Question #1. Where did I get the daisy lids? I have included three links on my blog where you can purchase them. One link takes you to gold ones, one takes you to silver ones, and another takes you to a link selling the lids with the jars. http://www.acasarella.net/2013/03/mason-jar-...

Question #2. Does the thread get tangled as you pull different strands through? So far the answer is no. And by "no" I mean that you can keep pulling strands through the lid and they all come out smoothly and uninterrupted. They do, however, seem to get twisted around one another. The twisting does not seem to be an impediment, though, as the strands still come through the holes just fine.

I don't know if this is because of the washers I put between each spool or if there's some other reason it's working for me, but I have almost completely unraveled a few of the spools in order to test it out. I hope it works as well for all of you!

2x2 frame, covered in reclaimed fence posts found by the curb. We attached a spigot to the drain hole in the cooler for drainage, used an antler shed for the handle, and added a bottle opener for decoration. It was so easy, and only $30 in supplies (since we had the cooler and fence wood on hand). You can check out the full step-by-step tutorial on my blog ( http://www.killerbdesigns.com/rustic-cooler-... ) to see how to make your own! It's a great addition to our back porch, and was so easy to make.
