[Rain Man]

Thanks for the compliments, everyone. We're pleased with it, and as cdcox said, we're happy with how we managed to marry the tradition of the home with some other things that were a little more avant garde.

And yeah, Fat Elvis, I think most or all of the second-floor curtain rods are from Target. We liked their stuff better than the stuff we had seen at the curtain store, and it was about a third of the price.

I must say, though, that I'm a particularly big fan of the "curtain rod" on the third floor (Post 264 - barely visible). I don't know where the wife bought it, but it's essentially a wire with some chrome holders. The rings that hold the curtains clip onto the curtains, so it's easy to use and it looks really cool.
