"Andrew wanted to refresh his stair railing to give it 'a more mid-century look and feel.' It might seem like a giant task, but a one-weekend, $300 project was all it took to make them much sleeker."
"After removing the glue from the notches, Andrew placed new black iron balusters with rectangular accents from Bulldog Stairs in the slots, making sure they were level. Then, he glued them into the holes."
"Andrew says the project was 'easy to do if you have moderate DIY skills' and that it was a 'simple project that made a huge difference.' Now, the view from the living room is more stylish than ever."
Homeowner Andrew Berkson disliked his traditional white stair balusters and sought a mid-century modern refresh. In one weekend and for $300, he replaced the old balusters with new black iron ones. The process involved cutting newel posts, removing old balusters, cleaning glue from holes, and installing new balusters with shoes for stability. He also cleaned and sealed the handrails. The project was manageable for those with moderate DIY skills and significantly improved the living room's aesthetic.
