What can I replace a front flower bed with?

I also like your idea about urns and pots and possibly a bird bath. I have also seen many people put some small patio furniture in the front of their house that adds a lot of curb appeal. Although I don't have a picture of your yard, I know of a few products that might look good in your lawn and I posted the links below.Also, all of these products are on sale! Hope these suggestions help! Good luck!
