Better Renovations: Staircase, Before

/
The staircase to the second floor is basic and functions. Eventually, for aesthetic reasons and enhanced structural integrity, there are some fundamental ideas I was tossing around, which are listed below:
  • New carpeting (carpeting of some form is important because of potential slipperiness in inclimate weather) - the stuff we have is badly stained and inconsistent with patches of carpet on second floor (see post on the upstairs hallway)
  • Down the road, I think it's safe to say we'll need a new railing (have seen a full railing made from a single, long trunk of a dead tree that was treated and sanded down - hmmmm)
  • General sanding and refinishing/dyeing
