I used the tapered brush from HTP and it worked perfectly for getting into the little nooks on the spindles and stairs.NaomiUBu121617213LikeComment - Painted StaircaseI painted the bannister, balusters, and newel posts in Abbey.LeAnne Bleannebragg66101LikeComment

- Oak Banister transformationUsed tobacco gel stain and cashmere to transform this staircase from drab to fab!
Prepped with TSP and then deglosser with a scrubby sponge. Next, replaced any missing screw “buttons” and glued them into place. Filled in any gaps with caulk and then starting taping. Lots and lots of taping.
Stained 28’ of handrails and five posts first. Used a chip brush and did not wipe back. Let dry about 24 hours between coats. Lightly sanded, then a very light third coat. The finish is gorgeous. A week later, started the balusters (72 of them!) with the cashmere. First coat with round brush, then coats 2 and 3 with round sponge applicator. Used a bit less than 16oz can of gel stain and almost 2 quarts of paint. Approx 40 hours of hands on work, but we’ll worth the effort. Overall cost was about $130.CindyDcindydavies1322LikeComment - One Spindle At A TimeFinally finished the railing as we slowly remodel our home. Used Corinthian and Colosseum.

- Front Door and stenciled rugPart of our entry makeover was adding a punch of color with my version of coral. Beautiful pink/red courtesy of a Monarchy and Naples mix.
My blah porch needed something special too. I created a “rug” by using stencils. #Almond #London and my coral color mix used on the door. Background color is a concrete paint from HDLobabychickLobaby1326523234LikeComment - Houzz Kitchen Love ❤️With the help of my Houzz friends, all-in-one paint, and a handy hubby I was able to transform my builder beige kitchen into my Industrial French Country DREAM ???? ❤️????kjoy1kjoy140362LikeComment
