DIY House Number Ideas

One great DIY to improve your home’s curb appeal is by displaying your house numbers in a unique way. In most places, you are required to display your house numbers so that they are visible from the road—but no one said they can’t look fabulous! This is a great project for the whole family.

Here are a few DIY front porch house number ideas.

 

Make a Mosaic

House numbers made from colorful pieces of glass are a unique feature you are unlikely to see on any other house in the neighborhood. You can even make a house number mosaic out of shells or other recycled materials if that better suits your home’s aesthetic.

Revamp Wood Slices

Drawing your house numbers on slices of wood and arranging them on your front porch is a unique look that will give your home a rustic feel.

Nestle Numbers in a Wreath

You can integrate your address numbers into your front door wreath. Handmake your wreath by adding flowers and ribbons. Make sure the numbers are removable. This way, you can change out your wreath to match each season and just put the numbers in the new wreath.

Use DIY House Number Stencils

Use DIY house number stencils to paint your house numbers onto an object. This could be a wooden sign, a piece of metal, or even glass jugs. This is a fun craft that the whole family can participate in.

If you want the numbers to look more ornate, you can use decorative stencils to paint around the numbers!
