It's The Little Things That Make A House A Home
I saw this idea in an issue of Better Homes and Gardens in early 2008. My mother-in-law asked if I could paint her house numbers on her door and I decided to add them to mine as well. I love how it turned out!

Do you want people to be able to see that your house is yours as soon as they pass by it? Putting your number on the front door is the best way to do that. Choose an interesting font against a boldly-colored door and you've got a front entrance that really says something.
