Here is the latest pic of the stairs! Bryce has been working so hard the last couple of days to get this done. I have always wanted to have a stairway with beadboard like this! I stenciled the Parisian Damask on the walls and painted all the non matching frames black.
Here is a close up of the stencil:
Now for some pictures of the more technical aspects. All the stairs have gaps between each other and the wall (I seriously wonder if the people who originally put it in were paying any attention at all!). So Bryce is going to trim out each stair as shown below to make it all look seamless.
The next creative, technical issue to fix is the banisters and the corresponding holes already drilled into the stairs. They are currently not to code (hahaha - imagine that!). We need to double the amount of banisters but where the holes are not drilled in to where we could just easily add another banister. Bryce thought of trying to plug the current holes but that would be big and obvious so he came up with this idea instead. Now we can drill where the holes should be!
It is all really starting to come together. Bryce has had to hand measure and cut each and everyone of these pieces and every step for the beadboard. It hasn't been easy but it is looking so good!
