If there is one thing that helps to look like an abandoned hideout, it’s a runaway row of hedges. You can save the day by a quick trim to ensure the bushes are nice and even, adding another spark of life to the outside. • Add colorful landscaping. Plant a variety of colorful flowers, and lay some red cedar chips. If you would like to provide a night photo for effect, consider adding some LED path lights. • Give it a bath.
