Our renovation isn't extensive - more like lots of minor projects that are in various states of finishedness. We did finish our kitchen, which had lots of peeling paint, and that was one of our main concerns. There's still a little peeling paint in the hall and a couple of other places.
And I think I'm going to have to just buy some plastic bins and throw everything sitting on a horizontal surface into them. One bin for the kitchen, one for the living room, and so on, until the clutter is safely stored away (at least until I get time to sort it)!
