98% Complete

I am considering the bedroom enough finished to move it from the Unfinished list to the FINISHED list.

All caulked and paint touched up.  (Please pretend the bed is made and the laundry put away.)


The remaining 2%?
1. See all those wires under the shelf over the bed?  That goes to the under shelf lighting, for reading in bed. They are going to be shortened and the switches mounted so it looks less octopus like.
2. See the red inserts in the shelf at the foot of the bed?  There will be a set of the drawers mounted on the wall next to  each side of the head of the bed for side tables.  The will be have a white box around them so it matches the foot of the bed.  The table saw is needed and is still buried in the shed.
3. See the head of the bed?  A headboard will be made and put there.  We are looking for fabric.
4. See the windows? The brown parts will be painted white when it stays warm because the windows have to be taken out to do those parts.
5. See the windows, again?  We are still discussing what type of window treatment we want.  We are currently thinking about faux wood blinds.
6. See the blank green wall?  I have a picture collage to fill up, and some of Surly Teenagers artwork to frame and hang.

So basically, done!  Yippee!

Just don't look at the rest of the house.

Well, the living room is actually clean since I am home alone today, for a few more hours.

Don't ask about the kitchen.

You've done so well. There will always be something that needs doing as you know and you have tackled major projects with great success despite dealing with a slightly aging but beautiful mother who is new to computers and jury duty taking your time. big zodiac

Love the primary colors; my opinion: don't add a brown on the windows--maybe yellow!

just kidding,
