Almost done with the living room!

Ah! I'm so excited! This chaos has stressed me out for 3 weeks. We're almost done, just a few little things, and then we'll be able to move furniture back into it. We have the brick almost completely painted. It just needs a few top coats, and it will be ready. Besides trimwork, and the lighting (we're getting a new ceiling fan and a set of sconces for next to the fireplace), the entrance door is the last thing. It needs to be removed, sanded and varnished/shellacked, then hinges replaced. And the doorway casings need to be painted, the weatherstripping needs to be replaced, and then it should be ready.

Here's what it looked like before -
We removed the wood above the fireplace - and put up 1/4" drywall over it.
Here are some photos of the progress:
