Mailbox Styles
Your mailbox is one of the first details visitors might notice while visiting your home — so choose accordingly. With so many mailbox styles, colors and sizes to choose from, it can be hard to make a decision. Check out these ideas below to inspire your mailbox makeover and enhance your home's exterior.
1. Colonial Chic
If your home falls in the colonial category, consider an architectural mailbox like this off-white vintage-inspired beauty. This post-mount style mailbox offers serious charm with an embossed design and powder-coated finish. This type of mailbox suits all styles of colonial homes, from Cape Cod to Dutch Colonial.
2. Simple Yet Sleek
Contemporary homes are all about clean lines and sleek textures. Made from marine-grade stainless steel, this curved mailbox is an ideal choice for a contemporary home. Designed to stand out, it's sure to make a statement in front of any modern home.
3. Color Outside the Lines
When it comes to mailboxes, don't fear color — go for it! A colorful mailbox can be a welcome contrast for many homes. Whether your home is neutral and you're looking for a pop of color or want to blend your mailbox in with an already colorful exterior, color is always a good idea.
4. Go For Rustic
A rustic wood mailbox can work well for cottages, cabins, farmhouses and other laid-back digs. This charming mailbox was created by using reclaimed wood to cover a standard metal mailbox. The result instantly adds an extra dose of whimsy to this home's exterior.
5. Blend It In
If you'd rather your mailbox blend in rather than stand out, consider choosing a color that matches your home. This white-on-white combination blends seamlessly, creating a clean, cohesive look that's simple yet stylish.
6. Vintage Vision
This vintage-inspired vision proves a mailbox can do more than hold the mail — it can serve as a piece of art. Designed with intricate etchings of hummingbirds and honeysuckles, this mailbox will instantly add character and curb appeal to any home. Built with two hooks to hold a newspaper underneath the mail compartment, it's a beautiful nod to days gone by.
7. Make It Mediterranean
Designed with stucco walls, archways, tiled roofs and wrought-iron details, mediterranean-style homes abound with character. A rubbed bronze mailbox is the perfect accent to complete the look. Embossed with three squares on its front panel, this simple yet stylish mailbox offers versatility to complement a range of architectural styles.
