I don't have many words tonight...mainly pictures.
I showed you our deck a couple weeks ago but didn't show you my stairs. I love my stairs.
Since the view between the treads was so ugly (underneath the deck is a concrete pad where we store things like the car topper and snow blower), we decided to add risers. Problem solved.
But since it was outside, I wanted to do something fun with the risers. So I painted them in three different shades of blue. In retrospect, I should have painted the bottom the dark color and the top the lightest color. Oh well. Maybe next time.
We used fence boards for the risers. First we cut them to length and then the hubby ripped one of them so they would fit the height. I sanded the heck out of them because they were pretty rough. Honestly, sanding was the worst part. Painting them was actually really quick and fun!
Add a few flowers and ta-da. That's it!
Do you have any quick and easy ways to add a little oomph to your outdoor space?
