Finishing Touches

We've been finishing up the final projects downstairs in preparation for Milada's arrival this Thursday. Most of the projects aren't photo worthy (tightened hardware, a reinforced sill between the bathroom and bedroom, etc.), but there are some attractive developments.

In the dining room, I finally painted the chandelier silver and replaced the shades with true white ones (it was black metal with beige shades before). Its kind of hard to take a picture of because its a light, but I think you can see pretty well here:

I made a photo collage of family pictures in the family room using many of the frames that used to be in the guest room upstairs. I painted some pink and some purple to coordinate. There is one more frame to go in the lower right, but the paint is still drying (I got tired of waiting).

And the vanity arrived a few weeks ago and I finally got it assembled. I recovered the bench in some leftover matching curtain fabric. Miran hung a pendant lamp over the table and I hung a poster beside it. I think it could use something above it because its kind of small, so I'll be on the look out for something for that area.
