After 3 months of hard work, our 2012 curb appeal project is done! Here's a sneak peek at what our front yard looks like today:

When Tal and I bought our house 1.5 years ago, our front yard was an eyesore due to lack of maintenance:

Over the last 3 months, Tal and I have been improving our home's curb appeal. In our front yard, we removed 11 dead or overgrown bushes, planted 17 new bushes, put down landscape fabric, and spread mulch:

Tal and I love the results! Our yard isn't perfect, but it's a definite improvement. From the street, our yard looks updated and well-maintained, which were our overall goals during this project.
There wasn't any room in our $600 curb appeal budget for colorful flowers this year, so next year Tal and I plan to add a flowering tree in the center of the large flower bed, as well as plant some colorful annuals in the bougainvillea pots. Stay tuned!
