Going from Drab to Fab

Before

Homeowners Jeff and Gloria Tomback are perfectionists. They know what they want and will do what it takes to get it. With the help of designer Cathy Riordan they get their hands dirty to make their nice home wonderful.

After

Here's how they accomplish it:

• paint front door for a more welcoming feel
  
• stain driveway with a faux finish
  
• clean up landscaping
  
• add new light fixtures to the entry way
  
• add wisteria around the garage
  
• install a wrought iron side gate for an Italian look
  
• add decorative stone columns on either side of driveway
