Brian, I’m sure it will look beautiful. It sounds like you’re into design and aesthetics; your tenants will be lucky with whatever you put in.

I like the pic in gzz’s photo, too.

FWIW, it can be as much of a curse as it is a blessing to have a spouse who’s too clean. In fact, I had to change my ways a bit after getting married and having kids…then dogs. As my DH (who is also clean, but far less neurotic about it) says, “houses are for living in, not looking at.”
