This is an amazing transformation! You have worked very hard to get here! Superb work in figuring out a way to bend the molding. :D Your staircase looks very classy now and I love the suitcases and globe on the platform. :)
Thanks Julie. I wish I had larger chunks of time to work on things. I am going to wait until Mother's Day weekend to apply the polyurethane. We'll be away and it will give the steps a chance to dry. I am so ready to call it done!
Thanks so much for the encouragement Christy! I wish I had done it sooner!! But then again, when have you ever finished a DIY project and wished you had waited longer?! Lol
Looks great and I'm looking to do something similar but I can't find that exact casing with an indent on the back. Every casing is completely straight on the back.
Hi. Most of the casing I've seem comes with the notches on the back. For this project I used 5/8-in x 2-1/4-in x 7-ft White Polystyrene Casing. Item #: 95866 Model #: 94420700032

ReplyDeleteWhat kind of casing is this? I can't find it at Lowes. I need the same type that isn't completely straight on the back.
