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.

Ok I am hooked, recycled light bulbs

17 years ago

So recycling light bulbs is so fun. I have been painting them, beading them and then using bailing wire to wrap around and poke them into the ground and make little baubles.. It's so fun and quick. Great to use left over glass pieces on.

I am having so much fun, thanks for all the great ideas
