Was the banister maple? We had new, darker floors put in and still have the maple banister. I've read that is is very difficult to stain.

When we moved from Portland two years ago I felt the same way about resting in a hotel until our house here was ready, but after a couple of weeks of waiting with a dog, cat and teenager, I was ready to get moved in. It does help to get some rest first though.<br />I'm excited to see how everything looks with the new paint, etc.<br /><br />PamPam @ Our Adventures in Home Improvementhttp://ouradventuresinhomeimprovement.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1715033476859637506.post-57298025652967133442011-04-18T20:25:48.659-07:002011-04-18T20:25:48.659-07:00Can't wait to see your new home!
