The finished results
The Great Remodel of 2008 is mostly complete, save for a few finish items here and there. As I promised, I do have photos!
Here are the big before and afters...

Looking front
New staircase
Those shelves are my pride and joy. I want to make out with them and I stare at them all the time thinking how awesome it is to have such a great place to show off my books.
Now that we have been living down there for a few weeks, I couldn't be happier with the results. The pain and suffering was all worth it.

It looks great! I love the shelves!
It looks fantastic, Amy! I love the shelves, too...not in the make out sort of way, but they are beautiful.
And, yes, you are a lucky, lucky woman. Have fun in your new space!
great results! Yes, it was worth all the blood shed and tears! I love the shelves too, I'm jealous.
I also am very jealous of the shelves... I have boxes and boxes of books in the garage that haven't even made it into the house!
