I spent waaaay longer than I ever thought I would have to using these
I decided that to properly refinish the spindles and hand rails I needed to remove the spindles. All that was holding them on are 2 screws on each one covered by those caps. I found ones that will sit flush when I put them back on. I never really liked these. But my goodness this took forever Like over 2 hours!!
I also numbered the spindles - thank you blog land!!!
I would have never thought of that without you.
I have been following along with some of the organizing and "decrapification" blogs, too. Tomorrow there is a pick up so I got a couple of bags ready to go. I quickly started cleaning out the under the stairs closet. Uhhh - definately no pics yet!! Since youngest daughter just graduated high school I donated all the old school supplies.(not used ones - just all the stuff you buy just in case) That cleared out alot of space. I have also been paring down on decor items after reading so many" less is more" on decorating blogs and why keep it if you do not love it. Wow - should have thought of that years ago. Those were in there,too. So I donated what oldest daughter did not re-purpose. Between those 2 categories I filled up 2 large bags- woo hoo. And I was able to semi - organize what was left. I do need to go get some containers, but stairs come first!!
But I aslo added one more question to the usual - do I love it, have I used it,etc. Now I also ask - if I spray paint it will I love it!!
