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 help on adding the decorative touches

12 years ago
I am repurposing a double dresser for my morning room. At a loss of how to add the finishing decorative items to the top and the wall behind. Any suggestions?

    I have taken the missing drawers out to create one shelf for baskets. Plan on replacing knobs and handles too.

    I think a colorful plate collection would suit above, with an antique lantern or clock and a large potted orchid on the top.[houzz=

    Perhaps some buffet lamps and a large canvas behind them, similar to what we've done below. Here's a link to more from that collection: http://www.shopsilvernest.com/curated-collections/traditional.html
