The warmth of wood

R's last big multi-step, multi-month project:  the spiral stairs are now complete! 

All the steps:
1.  Put together stair kit (with help from lovely, or maybe sarcastic and goofy, assistant)
2.  Add all decorative balusters (the ones with the little squarish knobs in the middle)
3.  Stain all wood treads and landing
4.  Polyurethane all treads and landing
5.  Touch up wrought iron with black paint, cover silver bolts
6.  Glue/screw down treads and landing

Didn't he do an amazing job matching our hardwood floors?  We are so happy with the way this project turned out.  It's nice to have one big thing we built ourselves.
