Most homeowners would really want unique stair treads but they don't know what to put there. Some would think about the stair railings first, as it is the most visible part of the staircase. Really, the stair treads make up at least 60% of the entire staircase so if you want something unique, put it there. Here are some ideas:
Paint a Rainbow
No, you don’t need to recreate a kindergarten school in your personal space. We’re just suggesting a minimal injection of color into your stair treads. Try experimenting with pastel colors instead of just sticking with the neutral ones. You can use different colors for every step or use a single color as accent and just vary the shades.
Be Literary
Another way to dress up your stair treads is to have some literary etching on every step. It can be lines from a poem, haikus, sayings, or simply names of your ancestors. It could be a fun way of telling a story or representing a legacy.
Go Sleek with Carvings
If you want to be unique but you don’t want to be so loud, you can simply go with customized carvings on your stair treads. This is best if your treads are made of wood. You can design your own pattern or you can have ready made ones copied for your very own staircase.
See? Now you can get over trying to think of a good design for your balustrade. Pay a little attention to your stair treads, and, in the name of art, you might be surprised where they will take you!
