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.

Dining room

9 years ago
Is it ok to just have napkins and placemats? White napkins ok or Cream ? Centerpiece suggestions?

    Out all the time? No, that looks silly unless your staging for a tablescape.

    A centerpiece bowl, empty or not is always nice looking.
