Staircases are usually front and center and at the heart of the home, so updating them makes a huge difference.
Popular options:
Remove the carpet. If you already have wood stairs underneath, give them a good sanding and staining and let that wood shine!
Paint the treads + risers. Stairs are a great place to add a pop of color...or stick with a neutral like white, black or gray.
Replace the balusters. If your staircase is stuck in the orange oak 80s, it's definitely time to update - there are so many options, from heavy-duty airline wire to wrought iron in all shapes + styles.
Switch out the newel posts. Sometimes even just paint, stain or a new cap can make a huge difference!
