Hey, hey, hey Midwest! This is our final Fall Cure Post because it's Graduation time! (*insert partying here*) We would love to hear a comment from each of you as we finish up the Fall Cure. It doesn't matter if you feel like you finished or not, the Cure is ongoing (and there is always the Spring Cure to help finish things off) We're collecting names to compile a master list of all Cure graduates, so let us know who you are (perhaps include both your AT and Flickr names), what you accomplished (large or small). We will update the graduates list on Monday, so make sure you comment to be added if you don't see your name! Click through the jump for some Cured homes photos!

We'll be updating the list throughMonday to make sure we've accounted for all of you! You can be a graduate no matter if you tackled your whole house/apartment, or just one room or area. So don't be bashful and speak up! We are graduating those who we saw take big steps in the cure (even if you feel like you wanted to accomplish more).
Here's a few successful spaces that we wanted to share with you. If you have one you want to share with us, upload it to the Flickr pool or tag it with "apartmenttherapychicago" and someone will always be watching! Or you can simply link us to it in the comments below!
degerkas made some great simple changes this cure, like this great sewing machine cover!
heymomo has organized books and media to the best of her ability. What could be a clutter commotion is stream lined and sleek.
seshat_ has new art, new cushions and new curtains. The room has pulled together fantastically!
Thank You to all who participated in the Midwest Fall Cure. It isn't easy to address the health of your home, especially in the Fall when our lives seem to be the most hectic. It's been a pleasure and an honor to see the progress and strides you have all made in making your homes reflect you... and they look great!
I love those white ruffle curtains. Anyone know where I can get them?

I actually just made them, but I was inspired by a shower curtain from Anthropologie (although I don't think those come in white anymore).

Thanks for the info!

@heymomo, that looks wonderful! I added the picture above to my style tray. :)
I didn't expect to see my name on the graduate list since I didn't finish all that I had planned and I was really bad about taking pictures of what progress I did make (no proof for you guys).
But thank you. It's reminded me that I have graduated--from my kitchen junk drawer, from my awkward landing strip, and from my overflowing office. I may not have finished where I planned, but at least I've gotten somewhere other than where I started!
See you guys again come spring. :D

I love that fantastic room of Heymomo's! I want something like that bookcase for my tv room.
I am overall pleased with my cure this time around (I'm thefarmersdaughter on flickr). I got what I needed to get accomplished and I'm on track now to do the big jobs this winter- repainting my kitchen cabinets, new fixtures in my tiny bathroom, and re doing my studio so that it works for me. I hope to have them done by spring- but if not- see you then!

Thanks, guys

The Fall Cure was just what I needed. While I didn't necessarily work through every step, it did help me stay focused and finally accomplish some nagging tasks. The kitchen, dining room and entry way finally got painted, an uncomfortable desk was replaced and some nagging issues were addressed.
Thanks to all for the inspiring photos and the great ideas!
