Facades of houses 2

The exterior of the house is a guide that will give the image that people will respect your home. No overburden to decorate the facade you can make it home is presentable and neat.

If you are thinking of decorating the facade of a space outside your home, there are a number of steps that should be considered:

The color of the facade of the house depends on your personal taste and you must ensure that no clashes with the rest of the neighborhood. While white is the most widely used today for walls can choose from a wide range of colors that are too loud avoiding. The gateway can have your decorative element, for example if wood can be shaped with a deep design, if you decide to iron, the wrought-iron supports different reasons and if the option is glass, selected according to the type design will be placed. The glass cathedral is an interesting option because it can not see inside or outside of the house and presented drawings of flowers, petals, geometric, and so on. If you have a front garden can incorporate both small plants and shrubs, you just have to keep in mind if you have the driveway their distribution will be made by taking care not to interfere with that space. As these items and decorations may vary depending on your personal taste. Space and avoid penalties for selected elements harmonize with the style of the house.

As an example, a small fountain, hanging plants and a lamp are elements that go well with the exterior facade. If you have a fence dividing the natural tones of wood is always in effect. If your house has bars of considerable height can plant some vines, flowers if you have better, to breathe life into a material so cold. Another decorative element is to give way to shrubs by pruning, and that is at stake your creativity.

Whether to renew the image or simply because you want to change the decor, not lose sight of that, beyond personal taste, it is desirable that the house is in harmony with the rest of the houses.

The decor of our home is varied and not just about interiors, but also outside. To paint the front of our house, we must consider several points, so that our home look radiant appearance and last for some time despite the ravages of weather.

To achieve a neat look and durable, we need to take some tips that will give a better finish to the painting of our home. It is important to understand our style when choosing the colors you will use to blend with the decor of the interior.

The first point is to measure the walls that we painted. We take the surface and the base multiplied by height in this way we get the square footage of the area. Similarly if we have a triangular area, we measured the surface and multiply the base times the height, taking into account that the height is half the sum of the sides.

Having measures in each area we know how much paint you need to keep us from missing. That being the case, we would need to make a new mix that will not be identical to the original color, giving off-key finish our facade.

Similarly, if we are on Painting, lose money, because the material it is made tends to decompose or dry.

Once you have the measurements of the area to paint, you should look on the package, the performance of the paint to see how much you need.

The second point is to have at hand all the necessary tools to remove old paint, such as chemical strippers and spatulas. Do not forget to wear a mask to protect you from the strong odors emanating from them even in the same painting. To paint on high areas should provide you with a ladder safely and avoid accidents.

Removing the old paint, we proceed to match with failing cement or special putty for exterior use. Then we sand the wall to have it perfect and smooth.

To avoid moisture problems in your walls you can use patching compounds or Moisture Paste waterproof to protect your paint. There are other compounds that you can use, you must observe the instructions for use so that you get good results.

Another important tip is the use of fixative or sealer will not absorb the paint and off color.

Before you start painting covering the floors, plating, metal fixtures and windows. If you're going to combine 2 colors on the same wall, you can separate the areas with special adhesive.

Finally, there are different colors you can take into account or new effects you can apply, just keep in mind the style of your home so you do not make combinations that you can repent
