Progress on "Paint it White"

Finally our dark stairway got a little face lift. Not a full on facelift, where you don't recognize it but just a little nip and tuck. I may still do some touch ups eventually to the stairway, like some sort of wainscot or trimwork, wall art and I am thinking of painting the oak black,
but for now it's just a whole lot lighter.

Now

 I know, not that exciting but it has made a world of difference in making it more light in this very dark area of the house.
