House Refresh - Painting Everything Black | Stair Rails, Doors + Quarter Round

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 พ.ย. 2019
  • I think something as simple as painting your trim and doors can really transform a space. Painting in your home can be intimidating, especially if the surface is already painted. I'm talking about the doors, trim, and stair railings to be specific. In this video, I show you how I tackled these projects.

    New subbie here for Australia. I love what you have done. All my 3 external doors are painted black, I have also added black security screen doors, all my internal doors are painted what my husband calls battleship grey. The walls are very pale grey and the handrail and top of the pony wall on the stairs are black, everyone said it would look horrible but they all love it. I wish I could paint my stairs white with black risers but my husband won’t let me do it. I suggest yours would so fabulous with black stair risers. Can’t wait to watch your other videos. Cheers.

      This has not been my experience, though I'm sure that's sometimes true? When in doubt, prime! I am dealing with peeling paint on all the wood trim on my stairs from a previous owner. Def worth the time because if you end up having to strip things later it's not fun. :(
