Mr. Wright went out of town for two days and I thought I would surprise him by painting the stair railings while he was gone.
(Kind of like the time I surprised him with new furniture that I bought for myself.)
I thought if he could see it finished he would just be so happy that I painted our solid wood banisters.
It didn’t quite get done in time. When he got home it looked like I was going for some 80′s rustic cabin theme.
But… now you can see where I am going, and Mr. Wright and I both think it looks good thus far.
I picked up a Cabinet Transformations kit at Home Depot for this project. I am hoping it will work well since the stairs get a lot of traffic.
And I don’t want to even look at sandpaper.
If you don’t hear from me for a few days it is because I am painting with every spare minute I have.
Or I fell of the ladder.
Hopefully it won’t be the latter.
Haha! Ladder latter.
I need some sleep.

Wow you are brave! Painting railing, actually any kinds of painting, is something I've got yet to conquer. It's looking wonderful. And makes such a difference with the overall look of the house.

You did it, I know you have wanted to do it forever. It looks fantastic!!

That looks really good- I'm curious how it will turn out – I'm looking to paint some of my kitchen cabinets with that paint.

How in the world did you paint that close to carpet without staining the carpet too? Seriously. I'd like to know.
