When we added new flooring in our 1960’s home remodel, it made the top basement stair taller than the others. See how we easily and quickly raised the stair treads to fix the uneven steps and correct the rise of the staircase. See all of our basement remodel vlogs and projects here.

DIY Stair Slide, or How to Add a Slide to Your Stairs
There are so many ways to update stairs — take up the carpet, use a runner, paint, restain, replace the railing, build a new banister/newel post, add fabric, to name a few — but not all of them are FUN like Erin’s stairs are now. For kids or kids at heart… just add a slide to your stairs! Read […]

Stair Banister Renovation Using Existing Newel Post and Handrail
I really love seeing the tutorials and projects we share here used in your homes.

Black and white is such a classic, crisp color combination. Not to mention: Oreos. And also pandas and zebras, but mostly Oreos and beautifully designed spaces. Combine the beauty of black and white with a good stair transformation, and I’m sold! I love this black and white painted staircase that our guest is here to […]

DIY Stair Banister Makeover Using Gel Stain
When we talk beautifying a builder-grade home, we hear two complaints most: builder beige (or “nicotine white”) paint and builder-grade oak — everywhere!

DIY Outdoor Baby Gate
Today we want to show you our new tall baby gate for the back stairs. We still love the baby gate for the inside stairs, that we made when we first moved in. Now that we are playing outside a lot more, we found we needed another baby gate at the bottom of the deck […]

We showed you here how we color washed our barn door, but I didn’t quite show you the rest of the story. So, I wanted to show that to you today. We improved the bottom stair tread and wanted to add house numbers to it, below the barn door. Now, this door comes off the stairs […]
