Bower Bird House Reveal & Resources Guide

December 23rd, 2021 | By Carlene ...

A project close to us (literal and metaphorical), my parents purchased an original 80s brick home that made for a satisfying yet accessible transformation. With Hacienda vibes, lush beautiful acreage and streams of natural light through in-built skylights we drew inspiration from the original stained glass windows to create a timeless aesthetic that feels like a true representation of their 60+ years of life.

    Hi guys, love love this home. Just wondering how you get the plates on the walls. I couldn’t see in the notes and have only found options online where you can see the wires / fittings etc.

      Hi there – we used plate hooks from Spotlight. They’re round, yellow stickers. Just make sure you get the right size for the plate. C
