Compensation for furnishing a cabin

We decided to refurnish the LR and BR furniture for our two bedroom Smokey Mountain TN cabin from a distance. We ordered beds, mattresses, bedding online and had it delivered to the cabin. Our cleaner physically walked into the local furniture store I mentioned to her (she literally was driving by at the same time we were talking on the phone) where she eyeballed the furniture I picked out, sent me photos, picked other items, sat on them, got my ok, and ordered everything. She oversaw the furniture delivery and removal of all old furnishings, keeping a couple pieces for herself, with my blessing. She shopped for end tables, nightstands, and decor for walls and mantle, and made everything guest-ready. 
It’s new for her and for me. What is fair, good and generous compensation for this service? She was happy to do this and I was happy for her to do this. Thank you for your thoughts.
