UPDATING HAYLEY'S STAIRWELL FROM VERTICAL WHITE SPINDLES TO PAINTED BLACK HORIZONTAL IRON RODS
Hayley has such good ideas for decorating her home.
She wanted something different for her stairwell.
It had white spindles, oak handrails and finials on the posts. (picture below)
She wanted a horizontal design, so she asked her carpenter to remove the existing wooden vertical white spindles and install these iron rods.
Doesn't it look wonderful, now!!
Hayley asked the carpenter to remove the finials.
Then, she asked me to paint the new iron rods, oak handrail and top of posts to black.
To get any oil residue off of the new, unpainted iron rods the paint store told me to use alcohol with a rag and clean them really well before painting.
Hayley is very happy with her new look. I think it looks great, too!
The carpenter removed the vertical spindles then he drilled alllll of those square holes for the new iron pieces. That was a lot of measuring, leveling and drilling. He did a great job.
"Before" looked nice, but it's updated and young again.
