Risa had me paint the floor boards at bottom of stairs,green and brown stripes then light umber wash over them then clear coated with oil,small detail but added a nice feel when entering.it picked up the colors she was working with and also the ribbon on one of the hats hanging on a hook as you walk up the stairs(accident maybe or maybe not)then risa had me faux the floor vents(you can see before and after)so they would not stand out.
