Staircases are all too often neglected in the household, yet they can act as a lovely bridge between the ground floor and the upstairs. So don’t hesitate to renovate your stairs to give them a boost and harmonize your interior. In this domain, bloggers are creatively outdoing each other, finding new ways to customize steps and staircases with easy and affordable DIY makeovers. Using paint, wallpaper, adhesives, masking tapes, stencils, mosaics, tiles, chalkboard paint and even license plates, the stairs can be a real asset to your rental decor. The proof is in the pictures.
