Small upgrade to basement stairs.

So. 20 years later, there wife decided the unfinished basement stairs needed a little pick me up. Built the house in '05, finished the basement 5 years ago and decided to make the stairs a little more pretty. They had been over sprayed from the basement finish. They had texture on them from the drywall guys good aim. We had cheaper stairs rugs so our dogs would walk down them. I sanded the textured areas. Painted the whole set a grey-ish color. Installed a peel and stick design on the risers. And our favorite part is the new stairs carpet. The are custom measured and cut to fit our depth, the width was 2 inches smaller than our treads but I think they get a border effect. submitted by /u/rusted10 [link] [comments]
