My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need ideas for mantel

12 years ago
Hi, I need some ideas of what to do with the mantel. I just randomly added these things that I recently bought. These things can be taken down. You won't be hurting my feelings. lol I really would like to add a huge mirror or something like that. the size of the wall is 6X5" and 4X5".

    The decor on top takes away from how pretty this fireplace is. I suggest to clear everything off and hang a bold, simple, modern piece above it. good luck!
