Something I was very intrigued and thrilled at the same time when I was doing the research for our house. Stairs ?? Really ? Did'nt think you can glam up staircase in so many ways. I found loads of photos of people Jazzing up the stairs. Back in the 90’s it began with using different types of materials to build the stairs, nice wooden stairs, glass ones look gorgeous and elegant. Then the intricate carvings on the pillars , lovely family photos, paintings have started showing up around the staircase area.
Today, the virtual world is filled with pictures of DIY stairs. Oh, what can i say about the staircases over which the artists creatives juices are flowing with no limits. The ideas are so fresh and unique and immensely pleases one's eyes. I so wanted to this when we were moving but even though the builder was enthusiastic about it my husband dearest didn’t give a damn :) of course, his excuse was time and budget because we have to do all the stairs all over. The wood on the existing ones wasn't in a great shape and so carpeting it was a practical move. Well, I guess sturdy stairs is also an important aspect than the look.So, if you just moving in or renovating the house, this is the correct time to revamp the stairs as well. especially if they are carpeted previously. You just don’t know what’s underneath.
There are so many options, colour the tread bright and leave the step rustic, stencil some vintage design on them or go all out and paint sceneries. Here are some I picked from pinterest for you to get inspired!!
This is my Favourite. If I ever get a chance to do our staircase again, it's going to be these. Blue tread and a dark wood step. Just love it !
