Finally - the AFTER stuff

My dear honey has been off for a few days, and he's helped me get the final stages of our living room decluttering finished. Which was great, because once fall got going, I totally lost steam and I got into several other projects that kept me in my beautiful office! LOL

So here is the living room:


That corner there? That's where my desk used to be. And the kids were using their computer there on that desk for the last few months. They're complaining that Dad moved it downstairs - and I have to admit it's not as nice to have it down there - but there is a reason for it, which they'll find out on Christmas Day. ;-) (Shot of that lovely empty corner below:)


Here is the "new to us" entertainment unit that matches our bookshelves:


And a shot of the tree:


So there we are, all decked for the season and all cleared out. We're very excited about this - it has extended into the downtstairs (clearing a spot for the desk in the open part of the lower hall) and even getting to the junk under our stairs! We're not done yet, but I have the feeling that George the Taskmaster will have us all hopping after Christmas. ;-)
