What Houzz contributors are saying:
This is a great example of how creative you can get with a staircase when you open your mind. For your purposes, look at how they painted the wood and the white.
added by Kathryn to Decorating with Numbers
I picture this being a great addition to a home with children, teaching them to count every time that they go up the stairs!
added by Kit Pollard to Stairs That Really Go Someplace
Here's what I love about this: it's so simple. It's not that the staircase itself is crazy and fancy. It's just a stencil and a cool rope as a railing. Purely creative and totally easy to implement, but fantastic.

Decorating with numbers is so popular these days. Steps seem like a fun place to use them. Check out the nautical rope handrail.
added by Janell Beals - House of Fifty Mag to What Says "Quality" In A Home? Wooden Tread Staircases
Adding numbers to risers is a fun detail, particularly when paired with a rope banister.
added by Margaret Everton to Designing for Fun: Whimsy Grows Up
A simple staircase is completely made over with numbers and nautical rope. Simple. Nonintrusive.
added by Becky Harris to Update That Beachy Style!
Everything is a bit more free and easy in a coastal home. Feel free to make some unconventional and eclectic moves, as this designer did with these stairs.
If you're handy with stencils, numerals paired with a rope handrail add a nautical touch.
added by Samantha Schoech to Dip a Toe Into Modern Nautical Style
The rope banister is certainly clever, but what I really love are the stenciled numbers on the steps. They remind me of steamer trunks.
Strip carpeting from high-traffic areas. If you've been thinking of removing that ratty old carpeting from your back staircase or entryway, seize your moment. Carpeting traps sand and muck like nothing else, and you will enjoy the coolness of bare floors in summer.Style note: If you're looking for a creative idea for your newly bare stairs, try painting them white with a stripe down the middle (natural wood or a color), then stencil numbers on the risers for a fresh, nautical-inspired look.
9. Stairway + a little paint = number stencils. Short on paint? Leaving the stairs bare, use a basic number stencil set from the crafts store to apply paint to each riser.
