Simple staircase makeover

Okay, I am going to come off as a real tightwad, but guess what? This project was super cheap! It cost me a total of $6.50 and it looks so nice! I found these pre-painted accents at Home Depot near the molding and railing materials. Then just (nearly, as I am non-commital to decor) used some Liquid Nails and put them up. If you want a less permanent option, just hammer them in with a long nail. This way you can always remove them and simply fill in the remaining hole later.

So, here is the before and after. What do you think?

Before- not bad...

After- Lookin good!

And putting them up is simple, all you need is a hammer, a drill, a nail punch, nails, and wood putty.

Measure the positioning and make sure the accents are level and nail it in. I drilled holes in them first to prevent them from splitting. 

Use a nail punch and tap the nails in. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fill in with wood putty and then paint. 

Then enjoy!
