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.

Fabric paint?

9 years ago

I have read where people have painted upholstered pieces. Have you? What did you paint and how did it turn out? What was the brand name/type paint used? Could you paint a faded patio umbrella, too?

Thank you,

Sunny
