done and dusted
Totally wrapped up
Done and dusted means completely finished, with no loose ends remaining.
The phrase suggests not just completion but tidiness—everything wrapped up and settled: The contract is signed, done and dusted.
More common in British than American English, it often appears after negotiations, projects, or decisions are finalized beyond any doubt.
