That looks great! Our stair carpet is disgusting. Lots of work but I’m game. And the price is right. Thanks for sharing.
As a contractor for many years, I love the way it turned out...A lot of work went into those babies...You should be proud!
Thank you!! I appreciate your comment!
I was so tired of the carpet on the stairs, I ripped my carpet up myself!
Then I thought to myself... OH MY GOSH!!! What have I done?
I then called some local handymen to see how much would it cost to
refinish my stairs. The lowest cost was $1100. Oh Dear?
Then I ran across your post. Thank you!! You were so detailed.
You my dear are AWESOME!!!
I really didn't have the money to pay someone to do the job.
Thanks to your post I'm now doing it myself. I was so lucky. My 15 year old
home was build with some terrific looking stairs. I've done the sanding and
woodfill. I am so excited!
Thank you!
Kimberly
Which is exactly why I decided to do mine myself... it was more like $8,000 for me, because the spindles were attached to the stair treads.
Good luck... I would love to see your results! You could send me a pic to: HectaFavorites@gmail.com

Hi There, I just sent 2 photos. I'll be sure to send you a completed photo!
Thanks for inspiring me! :)
Yaaaaayyy! Girl Power!!!💪💪💪💪
I want to do the same! Your story makes me think I can do it. 😊
Yet another lady diying all by herself and proving ladies be awesome
Kudos to you, amazing job hope your husband was impressed 🤗
Ahhh... well, you know... he's never surprised at what I do... he's used to me by now, after 52 years of marriage. (And I even do his income tax returns for him... he doesn't even know how lucky he is.. just thinks it's all normal.)
The faux finish on the ends of the stairs treads, girl YES!
What a great job. So much hard work. Your husband must have been amazed at what you accomplished. Thanks for posting this.
Well, he has known me for a very long, long time... so nothing surprises him anymore. ( I have been told that he did brag about it to friends though.)
Having done this job in my home I can appreciate the time and work that you put into your stair project. Congratulations on a job well done and thought out. Thanks for sharing this video.
You did a great job on those stairs. Your husband should be proud. Nice vid.
My stairs are exactly the same way. Carpet is all torn up now and ready for wood filler. Thank you for posting!
Smart Lady, I wish my wife will do things like that.
Hi you did a fantastic job,thankyou for showing us your hardworking and skill on the stairs ,you were very patient on job ,well done.🌍🇵🇰 👌
So excited to start ripping out the nasty carpet. Love love love your video. Yay!!🎉😅
Great job! We're in the process of ripping out carpet on our stairs and refinishing the rough grade wood. This will come in handy. Thanks for a fantastic DIY project!
Fantastic job Emi, you are one talented lady. Bet your husband was surprised when he got home. Love all your videos, you don't know this but I learned to crochet from your videos. Thank you your an angel.
Susan Walker Thanks for commenting Susan!!
Thanks for sharing,Great example of how to proceed.Major job you did.Our stairs don't have risers,open space between each step,so I am watching examples of how other people have worked on their stairs,thanks again for posting.
+John DuBois-- You're welcome John, good luck with your stairs renovation!
Very impressive! "Hand sand to avoid dust everywhere" AWESOME!
Oh my, Emi, you are something else! Although I watch your crochet and craft and cooking videos, I had not seen this one until today. You inspire me to persevere, not to be so quick to think, I can't do that. 💜
Thanks for the kind words Karen. Yes, we can do almost anything... almost anything. We just have to put our minds to it!
you did a wonderful job..I was just today telling my husband that me and the kids can do the stairs...I told the kids we will tackle the stairs and painting the ceiling fans while he is at work...why pay someone..life is about exploring and learning...a job well done by you
Thanks very much Lynda.. yes! you can do it!
I am blown away by this! I have the same problem as you with the unfinished corners. I am going to do this as well. Thank you!
Good Luck Keri! You can do it!!!
@@Hectanooga1 Thank you! I needed to hear that because pulling up that’s carpet is a workout 😂
@@keriissovery9566 Yes, it is... and mine had so many nails because I had taken it off before, cut it into manageable lengths, and washed it in the washing machine..... I know, I'm crazy. But I love the fresh look of the stairs without carpeting. And I didn't have to pay a contractor thousands of dollars! That's the best part!
I removed my stair carpet about 5yrs ago and gave them an all wood finish. Looked great. Yours looks so fresh. Fantastic job. The only down side for me is it can get a bit slippy under foot.
Wow! You are Superwoman! Great job!
I am in the middle of this as we speak! So far, carpet removed, staples removed, paint stripped. Now filling holes with wood putty, let dry and then sanding. It's tedious, but I'm doing a little at a time. Good job you did!
After watching many videos, I felt I was the only person in the world that did not find perfect oak wood under the ugly carpet... Great job and great video. Thanks!
Thank you Stephan!
This exactly what we have in our home. The spindles attached to the top of each step. Very expensive to have done by a floor company. We are lucky that we have overlapping carpet covering regular sheet rock to the connected walls instead of open area needing a insert.
Wow !!! Great work... really reminds me of how my mom would approach a project and take her time.. The end result would always be perfect like your project.
Wow, you are my hero! Looks absolutely amazing, and I bet your husband was surprised and pleased when he got back. We need to do something with our stairs, but we don't even know what we have to deal with underneath the carpeting. Your video is good inspiration.
Thank you... it could not have been any worse under the carpet,,, but with a little work, well, a lot of work.... and some faux finish, it is 100% improvement. And it still looks exactly the same today, 3 years later! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
Well I'm totally amazed .You are amazing. I have a terrible carpet that ,I don't know whether I could do this what you doing but I'm really impressed with you.God bless you. I like to see a video of your husband expression when he sees it.
Melinda Fournier Oh, he knows me well... he will probably not show much expression... maybe a little hardly noticeable sparkle in his eyes.
My husband like that. He never tell me he love me, but I see it in his eye. He a good man
Emi, the stairs look AMAZING!!!!!! Good for you! Hope hubby is just as impressed as all of us are! Congrats!!!!
Jodi S. Ah, he knows me... we have been married over 50 years... nothing surprises him. He went away for a weekend once, and when he came back I had totally changed the kitchen cupboards, added moldings, and painted them a new color! He said:"Do you think that looks good?" I said "Yes, I do." He said... "I do too." (His question could have been taken either way, that he did, or he didn't!) lol
Wow, that's a big job and very well done! The stairs look beautiful! :) 👍 👏 👏
Great job. I did mine and showed my wife your video. Told her if you could do the job, she could. Haha. Yea right she replied.
I do not have stairs in side but the porch could use a great make over ,thinking on redoing it. finding out woman can do any thing they put their mind to do. :) great video. got to save this one too and share it on fb
Amazing job! To be honest the best video I've seen so far. I'm about to do something like this and didn't find anything
impressed! Great tip on finishing off the tread with a lighter 'streak' of paint.
the stairs look amazing.
Thanks so much!!
Why am I just finding this?? I will be doing my own stairs and this came in handy I was looking for a recent project you did for my sister to see. thank you for all the details and what challenges I might encounter as well. Your came out beautiful. Wonderful DIY. Very unexpected 🤣 thank you. 🙏
You have encouraged me to try and beautify my ugly, ragged stairs. They have been awful for the entire time we have lived here. 24 years. Millions of nail holes, edges broken off, splits, etc. Wish me luck.
wow emi! that looks amazing! the carpet on our stairs is over 18 years old and we're needing to do something about it. your timing was perfect for us. thank you!
hippy chick That carpet was too old... I would be embarassed to say how old!!
I do this for a living. But I tell you what, so should you, an absolute exemplary job there mind. You have a very good eye for detail, very well done.
+Eddie Thompson Thanks so much Eddie!

Credit where credit is due, I mean that, not many professionals could achieve that type of finish mind.
;-)
You did a great job! Your husband must have been pleasantly surprised. Kudos to you for sure.
Yes, he was pleased with the results... this I know because he told other people... not so much me..
But hey,,, that's just the way he is! (And he knows me well,,, so nothing much surprises him about me.)
i do a lot of restoration before but never tried stairs. that's impressive. i like it
Thanks you taga!
You are an artist. The tread treatment is outstanding.
Thanks so much! (Answering from my other channel.)
Well-done! I'm currently stripping off years of old paint off the stairs using a heat gun and scraper, and it is taking me aaaages!
Oh, yes, that would take a long time, not to mention the fumes. A citrus stripper might work, where you apply the citrus gel, allow it to absorb, and then scrape it off. Might work.
You are awesome! I'm so impressed with how you made smart decisions on techniques and material choices & jumped right in there fearlessly! Very impressive work and result ... and I'm inspired & will be following your lead.
you did a better job than most pros
Adorable patience!!
Thanks!!
Wow, you did a great job! I have the spindle issue as well. Thank you for sharing!
Hubby must be very happy with results. You are just a Super Woman♡♡♡♡
cmortiz1956 We will see when he gets back home!
Lady, that is absolutely brilliant. Very well done.
Very well done Lady..looks fab.
Jen Hobson. Thanks Jen!!
Thanks so much for this vid! Very helpful. I too, have spindles like you do. You did such a nice job in a creative and thoughtful way!
Wow..they look amazing. You are quite skilled. Great job. That is a lot of work. Hope your husband liked them!!
Yes, he did like them. He would never have done it, even though he is very handy, and can do just about anything. But he would not have had the patience to do the job.. he would rather hire someone to tear them down and re-do. Not me!
You are so crafty and resourceful. Good job on that project!!
Thanks so much!!
Legend, and hand sanding..great job, I'm working on a similar project so this has been a wonderful go do it little push.
I have to hand it to you. I build these kinds of stair ways professionally and with the exception of a few points you did a fabulous job. I was particularly impressed with how you handled the painting of the step treads. I would hire you for a stairway renovation any day.
Awww...gee.... blushing here.... thanks a bunch Brian! (I am a die-hard diy'er...I have tried just about anything..not all documented!) Have a great day! Emi
Amazing! I'm In process of doing mine so I came to UA-cam for tips! Yours is all I need to see!! I got all my carpet off and never ending staples removed lol..now I have to sand and fill
Yay! Glad to hear it... you will love the freshness of no carpet stairs... I still love mine 2 years later!! About 10 years ago, I had removed the carpet, and thought the stairs were just so awful they couldn't be salvaged, so I put the carpet back and re-stapled it on... but then one day, I just bit the bullet and figured I had nothing to lose.. if it didn't turn out,
I would just re-carpet. But I just love my stairs now! Good for you for taking it on! Best of luck! (How about sending me a picture when you are done... and I will put it in my "Viewer Submissions" video, which showcases projects my viewers have taken on? You can send a photo to HectaFavorites@gmail.com
Looks like a new staircase! Well done!!! It's updated, but classic!
Monarch Senior Care Thanks so much!! I am loving it!
Beautiful work! I love the result and the fact that you took the time to do it right.
fabulous!! given me great ideas for my stairs as i removed the carpet a while back and the stairs are in a terrible state.........lots of hard work waiting for me :D
Wow!!!! What a big job. It looks beautiful. Your amazing.
Angela Gillard It was a big job... every day for 5 days... not all the time, but in spurts. I'm very happy for it. Maybe at some time in the future, I will bite the bullet, and have them replaced... but for now, they are fine!
Emi, I've never been disappointed in any of your videos. The creativity that you have is a true gift. You truly turn the most simple things into works of art, but these stairs..... that is just incredible. I've often told my husband I wish we were neighbors so I could just follow you around and pick up some of your ideas, creativity and "guts" ( for lack of a better word ) I hope your kids picked up on all your ideas. Your amazing! You need your own DIY show. You do things that look amazing without a lot of money ( I know it's a lot of work ) Maybe you will consider moving to Switzerland so we can be neighbors? 😀 Once again, another great video!!!
Ha!!!! I am a real home body.... so no hope that I will move to Switzerland... but I thank you so much for your lovely comment!
You have seriously brightened up my day!
my respect hard working lady
I like how you made the stairs look wood like with the paint streaks. I will do the same.
This takes guts! You're husband is lucky. You did an amazing job.
Aw... thanks so much Sabrina... he doesn't know anything different... we have been married for almost 52 years... he thinks all women will tackle
just about any task!! Ha, ha ha!!!
You're a genius. You did a wonderful job! Amazing!
Excellent job. It's wonderful!
10069MillefioreTime Thanks!!
Very wonderful new look, for a beaten up staircase, that looks GREAT. Really good DYI video , liked that you explained each part of the process, good job. Thank you, Chuck
Thank you Chuck!
This was a great video. I made the mistake by painting our stairs a dark brown and put carpet steps on them. After 7 yrs I want to make them look like yours but am worried I will have to sand the stairs. I'm going to try scrapping first. I love how you mixed the colors. I'm definitely trying this. TFS great job by the way, they look beautiful.
BsAlteredDesigns You may have to sand the steps some, but wood filler is your friend!! lol It's like make-up, covers a lot of flaws! (I considered painting the steps in that new popular ebony color... BUT... I don't want to be dusting every day, which is what that would entail!! And stairs seem to be dust collectors. (And I would rather be crafting than doing house work!)
You are a miracle worker!! Wow!! Amazing job. I don't think I know of one construction company that would do such an amazing job.
0JReynolds Well, that's just it, if I hired a contractor, they would have said they had to tear everything down!!
You did a wonderful job!! I love it.
Oh yes, let us know what your hubby thinks. I am so excited to hear what he thought
I'm so impressed! Well done! Your husband will be impressed with the results; I'm sure of it.
Chelin Fusco Thanks Chelin!! He's been putting off fixing a board outside on the front steps... I'm going to tackle that before he comes back!!
Hectanooga1 - Crochet, Knitting, Jewelry, Crafts, Cooking You are something else! Will you post a video of it? Or perhaps a before and after photos. :-) I hope he takes you out to a fancy restaurant for all that work. Hugs from my family to yours..
Chelin Fusco You know what? I rarely eat at restaurants... I don't trust the ingredients that might be in the food.... I looked at the board to replace it... but it has huge thick bolt like screws in it... don't think I would be able to manage to remove them.. so I guess I will have to wait for him..... dag-nab it!!
I'm going to try to wood graining tool on my steps if that doesn't work ...I'm trying your method! Steps look beautiful! Thank you for the video!!
YOU are an amazing woman!! What a great job!!
Thanks!
Beautiful Job ! & I know each time you go up & down your stairs you can say I did this ALL THIS BY MY SELF :) A good felling I know.
Bessie Watkins Yes, I love them!!
Nice job, you just gave me an idea of what to do for one of my customers stairs, I didn't know what and how I was going to do them, Thank you.
Glad to hear the video proved helpful to you!!
Beautiful work! I am so inspired.
Fanny Wong Ah, thanks Fanny!
OMGdness! You did all that yourself. Fabulous indeed!
Thank you!!
This looks fantastic! I'm considering tackling the same project this Fall. Yours came out great!
what a transformation... wow. good job. thanks for sharing.
trvlbuggy Thanks for commenting trvlbuggy!
I am extremely impressed by this. Turned out great!
Thank you, I appreciate that! Emi
Amazing! I have a similar carpet on my stairs and I guess I'm going to do the same
Wow!! Great job especially doing it all by yourself! I'm actually doing what you did right now to my new home. Tore out the carpet to find medium rough steps underneath; not as bad as yours looked. Still sanding them down and removing the paint. Sooooo tedious... Thanks for the video!!
+chipperknick010 Hi Chipperknick! Yes, it is tedious... but soooo worth it.
My husband was pleased... he knows me, so I can't expect excitement from him, when he goes away, he never knows what he might come home to. But my friends were very excited to see the transformation! I often stand in my hallway to admire them, I so love the fresh look!
Wow! How that was a lot of work, how cool of you to do it all by yourself. You're so skilled. They turned out just gorgeous, congrats!
2112Dahlia Thanks so much 2112Dahlia!
So pretty,good for you!
What a fantastic job, looks absolutely splendid, well done you, what a versatile multi talented lady you are, love it x
Jan Kuhnert Thanks Jan!
brilliant job - you just inspired me to do mine.
Wow! You did an awesome job! And all by yourself! Way to go! TFS!
lisamr40 Ha, ha... I usually do these things by myself, that's how I work best. (And if I mess it up, no one knows, lol!!)
THat was a huge job for one person - well done - looks great
You Go Girl! You inspire me! Thank You!
Amazing job! and much prettier than carpet i think. Did you do it all in just ONE day ? Wooow. It'll probably take me a month... :)
THanks so much. we are moving and our "new house" has carpeted stairs and it looks terrible. This will be so great to do to them. Great tutorial!!!! HUGS~ MIchelle
Michelle Randolph Oh, great, glad it helped!!
WOW - what a difference that makes. Clearly it was a lot of work, but the finished product is absolutely gorgeous. You're husband must have been knocked out of his shoes when he saw this!
24jessejames He's not back yet... he'll probably be ok with it though!!
Simply impressive...thanks for sharing.
You're welcome John, thanks for commenting!
