I know I'm a little late to this party but I've been thinking about painting my staircase's railing/balusters black, and the spindles white (all of which are currently a plain, honey oak). This has given me the inspiration (and more importantly, confidence!) to move ahead -- thank you! <br /><br />P.S.

I love that caramel color - I painted my guest bath in it when we moved in and get lots of compliments on it.<br /><br />Two things:<br />1) Jute is nasty - stick with seagrass. Jute is hairy, and is like a sponge which soaks up anything that's spilled. Blech.<br />2) I need to learn how to sew well and open up a workshop myself!!
