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.

Garden Butterfly

16 years ago

Hi everyone,

Been awhile since posting, but been very busy. Thought I would share a picture of my latest garden project. It is a four ft butterfly. Used a cedar porch post for the body and fabric for the wings. Lots of fun to make and getting quite a bit of attention from drive bys!
