Love some help with this as need to finish it soon one way or another! Thanks

I think you might find useful information at an Internet site, or from the This Old House magazine or website.

Hi, can I ask, my head is wrecked for fear I will make a huge mistake. Moved in 6 wks ago, stairs is the usual pine and I was thinking of doing the whole off white spindles & step risers, dark walnut stained handrail & step tops going up. I am nervous as my walls are painted a lovely natural cream, the floor is crema marfil high gloss tiles. Started on the skirtings, architraves and doors downstairs in Dulux Satinwood Antique White over the last few days and I am starting to think the white stairs may clash with the cream & antique white, should i go the same colour as the skirtings/architraves. Does anyone else have this look and it looks really well (what colours did you use) or do you think I should follow through with just clear varnishing the spindles instead and darker varnish on the handrails and sides. Don't know which would look better??? Thanks for any advice.

Please advise on what type of cooking utensils rail to place over an induction hob (internal extraction). i want to hang all my spoons etc. I like the look of the Leicht Modo Rail. https://www.houzz.ie/photos/modo-design-options-phvw-vp~18024598. I have also seen the IKEA version. Other suggestions please. i live in Dublin.
