The Stairs

The magical floating stairs had been a feature of the house that we'd discussed from the get-go. And yes, they have given us trouble, for as it turns out having pieces of wood which emanate out from the wall and can support the weight of a couple people at once is not so easy. Ultimately, a fine metal railing system was incorporated to hold it all together. But first, the stairs must be wrapped in the pretty wood (brazilian cherry) and then clear-coated for long-lasting protection. A late night for our stalwart mini-crew... I fed them pizza.
