Sherwin Williams Strikes Again...

I've got to tell you, while we've been rennovating the FIXIT studio house I've run into different dilemmas along the way. This week's dilemma - the bottom of my bannisters on the main stairway were previously painted white while the top was stained a light brown. I wanted more of a prescence to the bannister so I sanded and stained it a nice deep red mahagony and walnut mixture - love it! The only problem was I really didn't want to have to strip the underside so I could stain it. Now the only thing I have that is the same wood and stained the same color are some great pineapple finials that I picked up for the endcaps. So I took this pineapple to Sherwin Williams in Dewitt and Connie was a doll. She worked with me not only to pick the best paint for what I was doing but the color match I ended up with looks EXACTLY like the stain! Thank you Connie - I love it!
