It's not polite to stair

Since the moment we moved in, I have been itching to take the carpet off of the stairs. Sure, Stella loves the comfort of the carpet, assuring she makes it up and down without slipping. However, this is something I was not willing to compromise on, it had to go.

BEFORE

I wasn't sitting around drinking cocoa while Henry was slaving away on our new cabinet.

These stairs were finally getting a chance to show what they are made of.

Can you believe there is finished hardwood under that carpet?

From the hundreds of holes and green paint under the carpet, it became clear that the center of these stairs have been hiding their whole life. Sad.

A glimpse of beauty

and tada!

The result is lighter and brighter and I love it!
