Gosh, it’s already Week 3 of the One Room Challenge hosted by Calling It Home. It’s about time for panic mode for sure. We have a ton to do still. This past week, we mainly made plans for the rest of the space. Lots of things are going on but nothing has been accomplished yet. HOWEVER, we did figure out that we can get rid of the Scroll Stairway Railing. Yay!
Luke picked up some metal blades for the grinder over the weekend and spent about thirty minutes on the railing on the back stairwell.
During that time, I think he got about two sets of scrolls completely off.
This project is going to be a time-intensive project because we still have to sand and paint the railings after the scrolls are off; BUT, I think it’s going to look so much better!
Another thing that got done, was our old doors and new doors have all been picked up. They are off to be prepped for the hardware and painted. I’m so excited!
Another thing that I’m excited for are these new brass doorknobs!
Aren’t they the most gorgeous knobs that you’ve ever seen? Love them.
So, that’s all for this week. I’m hoping to have all the wall painting done for the update next week as well as a plan figured out for the entryway table. Wish me luck.

buh-bye scrollies!!!
I know! I’m so excited!
Wow! When I cut scrolls off of our outdoor railing they came off so easy! I think it will be worth the work though!
For sure!
Go Luke! Removing those scrolls is going to make such a big difference. And those door knobs are gorgeous!
I know! I owe him atleast a good six pack or something!
Somehow I felt sad to see the scrollies go. They really are nice scrollies! But your plan looks so amazing, it’s all I can think about now. you have a beautiful entryway. Can’t wait to see more. Susie from The Chelsea Project
I think they are nice too but they were just so overwhelming for the space. I think in person, it was just a lot!
what a stunning space! i think removing the scrolls will definitely be worth it and what a budget saver!
Yes! Thanks Morgan!
Oh boy, removing thoes scrolls is going to be quite the project! But will look so good when it’s done! Props to your hubs for taking on that task!
For sure!! He worked miracles this weekend and it’s looking so good!
Yay for getting rid of the scolls! I would just cut them off with a reciprocating saw and then grind them down. They’re going to look so good!!
I hope so! I’m crossing my fingers.
Oh, wow, this space is going to be gorgeous! I’m sure you are excited to see that railing go away. And the brass doorknob is amazing. I can’t wait to see the completed project!
Thanks Julie! The brass doorknobs are so amazing!
I’ll bet you will be so glad to have those scrolls out of there! Lots of work, but it will be awesome. Also, loving that brass doorknob and your new profile pic! xo
Thanks girl! We had family pictures done on our vacation, and I’m glad she thought to take one for me.
Ahhhh you’re doing it!!! That’s amazing! Bye bye scrolls!!! And hello to those gorgeous doors and knobs! Whoa!
Yes! I’m hoping it turns out amazing!
Wow, what an undertaking that railing is. I feel your pain as we are currently renovating our staircase. Our railing was hideous 90’s garbage and totally unsalvageable, so we are rebuilding it. I’m so curious to see how yours will look after its makeover! I’m sure it will be a 100% improvement. Sending you all the good luck vibes!!!
Oh my gosh, it is! Thanks Laura!
By one means or another I felt pitiful to see the scrollies go. They truly are decent scrollies! Yet, your arrangement looks so astounding, it’s everything I can consider now. you have an excellent door. Can hardly wait to see more.
They are nice to be honest, just overwhelming with all three sets within eye distance.
So excited for you! I would definitely have removed the scrolls too! Lots of railing work ahead of you though – good luck! I’m sure you can do it 🙂
For sure! Thanks Lindi!
What a job! Your design plan is killer and what a phenomenal space!
Jessica, you are the sweetest! Thanks!
Good luck on all the railing work, Ashley! I can’t want to see how it looks without the scrolls.
