Second-To-The-Last

We have been hard at it and have finished another room. Yea! Our bedroom seemed to go more quickly than some of the other rooms, perhaps because much of it (except for the insulation job) was cosmetic work. However, we refreshed everything, including trim, windows, furniture and walls. We also think this room went fast because we are getting better at plaster work and painting, plus we have experience researching new items and understand what we like and want better than we did at the start of this project. It was a snap to decide on a ceiling fan and a new bedspread. Don installed the final touch today; the Venetian blinds. Here are are few photos of the final results...

Don modified the headboard he built 40-some years ago to allow for our new queen-sized mattress.

We love our old-fashioned twin closets - but what a lot of woodwork!

We are happy to be back in our airy, upstairs bedroom.

Only the living room remains to finish, and we are well on our way in there. We also want to completely refresh the six cupboards and the window area in the landing outside our bedroom, not exactly a room, per-say. However you look at it, we feel the finish line is in sight!
