The somewhat underwhelming reveal

A quick post before I leave on my trip to Paris with my sisters and mom...I did finish the floor of my guest room. Actually, I finished half of the floor because my furniture was sitting on the other side. That is why this is an underwhelming reveal. And the fact I need to still add baseboards, hardware, pictures and curtains before I feel it is done. Ok, the room is only halfway done. Aren't you impressed?
But I thought I would share my before and after shots to demonstrate that it looks a lot better than it did.

BEFORE: The hallway at the bottom of the basement stairs

BEFORE: The guest room/art studio

BEFORE: The half of the guest room I haven't done due to the piles of furniture

AFTER: The hallway at the bottom of the basement stairs

AFTER: The new guest room

STILL TO BE DONE: Angle 1

STILL TO BE DONE: Angle 2.

 The area that still needs to be done has no walls and is quite a bit smaller than the completed area. I will probably set up my art/sewing stuff in the "still-to-done" area so guests don't have to sleep in the part of the room with no walls and ceilings. I am nice like that.

So who's going to come visit me?
