Default What to do with the rises?


wrote in message
ups.com...
Hi,

I'm about to sand and finish a bunch of stairs and I'm wondering
whether I can do reasonably do anyithing interesting with the rises
other than paint them white. My concern is that if I finish them in the
same way as the treads it'll give it an undesirable ski lodge feel.

Maybe there's a website with pictures where I could get some good
ideas?

Thanks,

Aaron Fude


The all white would be too much for me too unless there was a carpet runner.
My friend stined the treads and painted the risers. ballisters are white ,
handrail is stined.....NICE.
