Many folks consider stairs and hallways as strictly utilitarian — a place to get somewhere else - but these spaces can be great for decorations.
Considering that stairs are often one of the first elements home buyers see when they enter the front door of a home for sale, beautifying the steps can be a smart investment.
Consider these ideas for making the stairway more attractive:
A few tastefully positioned flowers can really stand out on at a stairway
Paint a runner in a bold shade of marine paint. Or do it in a pattern, like a stripe or polka dot.
Carpet the stairs with a pattern that hides dirt – even if the rest of the house has hardwoods. (As an added plus, carpeted stairs are safer than bare, potentially slick ones.)
Tile the risers, the vertical part of the stairs that get scuffed easily.
