All finalized

Still had lingering painting to do of doors, even after the bedroom completion, so finally created an assembly-like-line for that and got the remaining done in the weekend. Here's all the pics of the finished product.
Closet doors finally painted and installed.

Ikea closet organizer within.

Bed and new side tables just fit into nook.

Still got an empty space to hang a future tv.

Carpet is in!

Just got the new carpet installed and it looks great. It's been a year since the carpet was laid down in most of the basement, but I can't tell a difference between the new and old. Here's a quick look at the room now.
Got the new blinds added in too..

Pop of new color

Well, I wanted to go bold, but was unsure of my decision. Would it be too dark? Would it be too much blue? I think I made a good decision. It's all done now, and the color really pops - especially against the white trim. Not much more to say, here's all the pictures.
Cutting in the walls...

Can see I already painted the closet a lighter, "cottage white" color.

Fully painted with two coats.

Can see I'm still painting a load of doors too.

With accent wall. Really turned out well.

Finish work begins

Finally pushed through the last of sanding and started with the finish work. First off, I primed the walls and ceiling, and painted the ceiling with flat white paint. Here's a quick look at that.
Also shows the start of trim-work.
After that I moved onto the woodworking, which has progressed pretty fast. After doing around the door and the surrounding baseboard shown above, I installed the rest of the baseboard, the closet doors, and the window casing in about a day and half. Here's all that work:
Getting the closet doors situated for proper height / fit.

Moulding all tacked in.

Window, in need of finishing.

Wood frame halfway there.

All finished up.
So, next up is painting all the moulding, and then I'll find a paint color for the walls and tackle that.
