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.

Planted 'junk'

17 years ago

Ive had such a fun day that Im going to show you all what I planted and then I promise Ill be done for a while.

After I planted my rocker I just kept going. I decided to paint this wire thing lilac (got it for $1) and I lined it with the black stuff you put down for weeds. I didnt want to spend any more at the nursery for thoise sheets of moss. I really found a couple cute plants, but there were no markers, so if anyone knows what they are, let me know.

Free pot that I painted with another $1 table

{{gwi:153809}}

Free pot with garbage picked birdbath base that I made into a table

{{gwi:153810}}

All together with my $5 chairs.

Free pots with margolds on top of my curbside ladder in the veggie garden. The ladder also works nicely for the cucumbers to grow up on, whichI planted underneath.
