Thanks! There are two of those fixtures in the living room since it's so long (20ish feet). Should have more "afters" soon. Just want to get each room cleaned up and ready first. The doorbells they sell for wireless are so plain-we walked all over the salvage place looking for something to use and found it in a "bargain bin" (it's reproduction, no actual salvage was harmed lol).

So I've been waiting to post the final outcome until I knew it. The Bungalow Project shall remain mine for a while, I have signed a lease for it. A lovely family with 4 children will be moving in shortly. The market has cooled off a bit with back to school so I could choose to hold it a while, reduce the asking price or lease it. Since I am not in a hurry to part with what is one of the nicest homes I've ever owned, I'm ok with it! It's nerve wracking trusting someone with my labor of love but hopefully they will take care of it-she has said that she would be interested in buying it in a couple years when she's in a position to, so we'll see.

Anyway, here are some of the final pics. Before and after of the most dramatic chages :)

Oh, my goodness, EC! That turned out so beautifully! I wish you luck in your family. I'm too afraid to try to rent mine out. I might do violence to anyone who damaged my "labor of love."

I love everything you did! Wonderful! Your upstairs pink room with the little door looks just like one of mine! Before and after!
