My room is done, curtains hung and all the furniture back in place.  This was the final room of the entire upstairs redo.  I'm soooooo glad to have the house put back together and settling back to normal!  This has been a 3+ month undertaking, with life in upheaval since January 12.  Everything turned out nicely.  I'm looking forward to tidy quiet days.
