Our first feelings about a home come from its curb appeal. Paint palettes, colorful front doors, perfectly placed planters,flower beds and more bring exteriors to life. Of course, HGTV stars know how much curb appeal matters. Just take a look at these awe-inspiring designs from your favorite hosts. Ahead: We gathered their best looks so you can try them out at home.
Nothing says quaint country cottage like window boxes.Erin and Ben painted these boxes the same peaceful blue hue as the front door, then filled them with trailing plants for a romantic touch. Columns flanking the door and a brick stoop add extra charm.

Jasmine Roth: Retro and Rustic
Black paint (Black Fox by Sherwin-Williams) and a new driveway completely reimagined the exterior of Jasmine's once-dated A-frame home in Big Bear Lake, California. On the front deck, a custom storage unit stows firewood and adds to the home's mountain-lodge ambiance. Jasmine added a decal to the front window with the home's name, "Hazel's Cozy Cabin," after her daughter.
Keith and Evanheaded south for Bargain Block New Orleans, during which they revived this NOLA-showstopper. Natural wood accents, fresh white paint, new windows and hanging porch ferns make for eye-catching curb appeal. Paying homage to classic New Orleans architecture, they freshened up the original ironwork railings on both sides of the front steps.
