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.

Fireplace Focal Point

12 years ago
Friends of ours just bought us a beautiful Seiko Mantel Clock with Swarovski Crystal. I would like to keep it on the mantel but I think that it looks too small or lost. Any suggestions on how to make it pop will be greatly appreciated.
