You've Got Mail ! - Brown Stone Mail Box

One way to add to your curb appeal is to make an improvement to one of the first things a visitor sees when they happen upon your humble abode. The mail box!
This is a stone mail box I built a couple of months ago, South of Birmingham, AL. Aside from ditching the rotting wooden post that was the structure for the faded, black box, I also moved the location of the mail box to be more convenient for the homeowners. And, while yes, most of the new metal box is hidden behind stone, the homeowners and I agreed that an upgrade there was in order. The new box is larger than the old one and has a nice copper finish to it that was a nice compliment to the stone. Finally, the day after the finishing touches were done, I hid in some nearby bushes and watched as the postman delivered the mail. Yes! The mail was delivered successfuly and I was able to move on, with confidence, to the next job.
