Next to our front door.

When I'm looking for someone's house I always search the door area first if that helps...

Re: house numbers.. where is yours? Updated with PIC

Are you putting a light next to your door? If so - I would put them under it so they will be visible at night.

eta: Just saw your pics (for some reason they were red 'x's for me) - love it!!! You have plent of space to the left of your door - maybe there? or are you putting a big planting there?

eta again - ours are above our mailbox too if that helps.

I do not have any one my home, but I would put them on the left of the door when looking at the home from outside. Hope that makes sense.

either to the left of the door (if you aren't going to put plantings there) or above the garage (if they are large enough)

Are you going to have lights next to your door or on your garage? I would put them under the light...so that at night, you can see them lit up.

nuts I can only see the before pic. Can't wait to see the after.

Ours is to the left of our front door & on our mailbox that is at the curb.

So either to the right or left of your door would be the best place probably.

Re: house numbers.. where is yours?

If you're standing facing my front door, our house number is to the left of the door. There's a pic in my home album.

Re: house numbers.. where is yours?

While on vacation in Italy last year, we bought some ceramic tile with numbers, similar to these:

We placed them to the left of the front door.
We also have the house number on the mailbox by the curb, but they are just reflective stick-on ones that you can buy at any hardware store.
