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.

Last night's project

17 years ago

Finally got myself motivated to finish painting some wood yard furnitire. I had the primer on but kept procrastinating on the finish. Realized family will be over on Saturday to celebrate 5th BD of my son seen in this picture and decided to get busy. The child's bench ($3.00 garage sale) was white 2 summers ago, and hubby spray painted the whole thing red earlier this spring. Decided it needed to be disassembled so that a proper paint job could be done, now I need to get all the bolts and screws back in. The table (free from sis) will get white polka dots added tonight for a whimsical look. Cushion on chair (free from sis) donated by my sis who got new furniture. Benches in background free from rummage sale b/c they were falling apart, I like the look... Milk can free from someone's trash pile... Flagstone, free from friend redoing landscaping, and tree stump found laying along a winding country river road as I was telling my sis I wanted a tree stump to decorate with!
