banister ideas

We hit a little snag in our staircase remodel so while we wait and get advice on how to proceed I decided to start tackling the banisters. No matter what happens with the stairs {carpet or hardwood} the banisters are in need of an update. I have been searching pinterest for ideas and here are a few of my favorites.

#1

Love this all white banister

 #2

 The frames on the stairs, the stained railings and the dark wood floors... LOVE

 

#3

I think I am going to try and recreate this gallery wall in my stairway leading to the bedrooms. This is beautiful!

 #4 

This is from Sarah Richardson's portfolio. I LOVE her style. Another beautiful white banister.

#5

If I could redo my spindles this would definitely be in the running!

 

What do you all think? Do you have a favorite? I am leaning towards all white since again we are not sure if we are doing carpet or hardwood on the stairs and since our space is small I think this might look the best but I am open to suggestions!
