WOW! The stair project came out amazing Kelsey and looks even better than the work of some professionals… I hope that your husband realizes what a rare gem you are making your home up so beautifully and saving thousands in the process.. Well done. 🙌

Kelsey, I have watched all of your videos. I’m always impressed by your willingness to take on projects that most diyers wouldn’t dare…and the results are always stellar! Thank you for giving me the courage to tackle projects I would never have thought I could do🙂❤️

Thank you! Part of that is naivety- halfway through I think what did I get myself into? But then I have to finish! 🤣🤣

That fifth stain was the charm! OMG! This was so worth all your hard work. This staircase is gorgeous. As always, you are amazing!

@KelseyRomitoDIY Жыл бұрын

Thank you! I agree- the 5th stain added just the right amount of warmth!

@SkemeKOS Жыл бұрын

Beautiful result. My only critique is that you should have laid the risers on top of the treads, rather than behind them. That way, you'd have no awkward gap to fill, other than simply caulking, since your risers are white. You still made it look great though. The end result still looks stunning. Amazing job!

Skeme. Nobody does it that way. she did it the correct way.

You really need to rig up a sawdust collector. Just put a PVC elbow joint on the table and connect it through the lid of a trash can. Use a flex tube to help ease lid removal. And wear a mask when cutting wood. Wood dust is dangerous! So don’t have your kids stand in front of the output of the dust chute.

@KelseyRomitoDIY Жыл бұрын

While watching the footage back, I realized I totally could have hooked up my shop vac to catch all the saw dust. I’ll try to remember this for future projects.

@erindover6617 Ай бұрын

Good suggestion….minus the unnecessary ‘shade’. I’ve watched hundreds of random home renovations/maintenance YT videos, clearly some are better than others. As for this staircase makeover series…TOP NOTCH! Being a novice ‘Jane of all trades’, I am so impressed with how many of my skills have bumped up a level just from the ‘little details’ covered in these videos. I’ve got nothing less than gratitude for Kelsey’s efforts…that she has taken the time to share at no cost to me.

This looks so so so good. It really is what that entire living area needed. I was here when you were having a "paint choosers" melt down. Bless your heart, it's just because you know what you visualized your make overs to look like, and nothing else will do. I think it's a creative trait 🤔.

So frustrating that the stain didn’t take he same to the stairs as the bannister. I always use a wood conditioner. It helps reduce blotchiness, and it also makes colour consistent because it soaks into the wood first. Results are so stunning. I bookmarked the whole stair series!! You’re such an inspiration.
