Hallway & Stairs

My staircase has certainly generated a lot of chatter since I painted them. You can find all of the information about the DIY project in my other blog posts here.

Paint

Over the years we have painted our hallway and landing twice so depending on which picture you're looking at, the colour may be different - ever so slightly depending on how much light is in the room as well!

The picture to the left, and most of my pictures now show Joa's White, which has a yellow undertone and this is what we plan to stick with for the foreseeable future as I love it and it helps to make the room look brighter.

Initially we had painted it in Elephant's Breath, which has a red undertone making it look a bit of a dusky pink in the evening glow. See the bottom right picture of the grid.

Bannisters & Stairs

The bannisters and the treads are painted in the same paint and is very durable for the high traffic. In 3 years I’ve had to touch up the treads once and I have never had to repaint the bannisters. Having said that, certain parts have a become a bit worn so they will need a touch up in time.
