Sciencey Chick here! I'm only posting this to HELP not to villainize. I love your videos! and of course you have beautiful results. I was SO CONCERNED about the carpet singeing -- because of extremely toxic fumes from petrochemicals and chemical dyes -- they can release benzene and toluene. Burning carpet is NOT safe to do without a respirator. I would suggest anyone interested in following this method do the singeing outdoors, and wearing a respirator, and protective eye wear. I cannot stress this enough! Burning carpets designed with man-made materials (not cotton or wool rugs) release hazardous chemicals into the air we breathe. We're talking lead, mercury, and dioxin. It's also bad because burning carpet often releases endocrine disruptors (these effect humans hormonally.) I know it may seem like you only burned a small amount, but the distance between the burning carpet and your eyes, nose, lungs is super close. You don't always see immediate harm from burning carpet. It's really a big deal. Again, love your videos, just want to protect you and your viewers.

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Ahhh, such good info. I feel silly that it didn’t even cross my mind knowing how everything we are surrounded by is made up of toxic materials and chemicals. Adding a disclaimer in the description. Thank you for your thorough explanation.

@therealJamieJoy Год назад

@@KrystaMeeker You're welcome! I am happy to be helpful. I love your style and design ideas. Thanks for all the great videos.

@loiswood3363 Год назад

You are amazing at keeping your home true to its character! I just love how you seamed the runners to look like one continuous runner. Your attention to detail paid off! The mirrors are beautiful and also keep the space lighter by bouncing the light around. The secretary desk is just gorgeous. Your little boy is just adorable! Thanks for making this video

@mamaneedsatimeout1325 Год назад

Oh my goodness, how gorgeous this turned out! You did an awesome job on everything. The transformation in the foyer and upstairs hallway is incredible - it doesn’t even look like the same area. Your house is so pretty and unique. You allowed the personality and history of the of the house to shine - you absolutely did it justice! I do have one tiny bit of advice to offer - you may want to remove the basket on the steps. I realize that it serves a purpose and prevents you from making numerous trips up the stairs. However, it interferes with the flow of the runner. I like how the carpet draws your eye upward to showcase a beautiful stairway, but the basket interrupts that flow. Please understand that this is in no way a criticism, it’s just that you did such a magnificent job, I think it deserves to been seen as a grand area that encourages a person to climb the stairs to see what awaits them at the top. Again, you showcased a beautiful part of your home!😊💕💕😊 ~Linda

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Thank you for your kind words Linda! I agree the basket doesn’t fit the stately feel, it’s definitely there for function. 😆

@dianepereira1860 Год назад

Love the runner! The colors are so beautiful and the pattern is visually stunning. Maybe you can use the leftover pieces to make craft projects....coasters or placemats come to mind.

You need those stair runner bar things! I don’t know what they’re called but they have them in gold and it would give the stairs that added little sparkle and vintage flair

@alchemenergyacademy6231 Год назад

Such an improvement. I love the runner. Did I miss the reason why the runner wasn’t centered on the treads?

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Thank you! I actually meant to talk about this in the video, I talked about it on Instagram a few times and even did a poll. Haha. The rug is centered at the top of the stairs, I was torn between centering at the top or bottom because unlike most staircases that have larger stairs at the bottom ours starts much higher up. After some research I found that professionals recommend to always center from the top down. ☺️

Wow what a beautiful difference, I love the look. Have you thought how brass bars would look on the steps. ( I don't know what they are called😜). But, you know right. The stairs look beautiful, and the brass would blend in with your mirror's. God bless and stay safe 🙏 ❤️

Take the offcuts for around sinks or as runner for top of ugly dresser or rough shelving.

Finally got a chance to watch this today. I was very excited to see what you’d done, I love all your videos, and it looks absolutely beautiful!❤️ We have been debating whether to try doing this ourselves or hire someone. I showed my husband, and I think, we’ve decided to go ahead (with the help of your video) and do it ourselves! Thanks so much for going into such detail and for making it so very informative!

Love the runner you picked! Beautiful! I went online to see what hours/Days an antique store called The pigeon Roost was open….been years since I’d been there. It said it was permanently closed! 😮. Have you ever gone there? It’s in Augusta. If you know of it please tell me it’s still open for business! You just never know about “that internet”. 🤭 Great Job on your entryway…you guys have great style!

Hi there,your home is beautiful.I h😅ave one question.Why isn't you😅r stair runner🎉 in the middle of the staircase?

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Thank you! It is centered at the top. While a lot of staircases have stairs that get bigger towards the bottom ours do start higher than most making that something we pondered awhile before beginning. After some research I found that professionals always recommend centering at the top, so we went with that. ☺️

@chriswells4400 Год назад

Another amazing transformation! ❤️

@jeffvenables4845 Год назад

Such a beautiful transformation! Love it. ~Cathy

@tiffanitodd4145 Год назад

This looks wonderful! May I ask you how 'plum' the plum color actually is? I had this same carpet on a wish list but have been hesitating because of the potential purple tones. Our home also has all of the original dark wood trim and dark staircase. Thank you and your home is quite an inspiration as I try to design around all of the Victorian elements of our home.

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Thank you!! I love that you too have original woodwork throughout your old home, such a beautiful feature! There is some plum in the rug but I would say the more predominant colors are a dark blue and the terracotta. I found that some picture online make the colors look much brighter than they are in person, it’s a beautiful rug! ☺️

Pahaha! Seriously, relatable. To make it worse, I know I’m the one who did it… I can tell you my husband did not go looking for the magic erasers at any point. 🤣

@julielefevre4184 Год назад

I had another thought so I am commenting again. What if you framed a piece of some of the scraps in an old frame. I have seen old rugs be used as bench cushions or in frames.

@Scarlet-qg1xi Год назад

Did you consider brass bars for the runner? I think it would look great.

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

Oh, I absolutely did! I love the look of stair rods and looked into it. They are very pricey! Maybe I’ll come across some at an estate sale one of these day?? 🤞

@Melody-285 Год назад

Did you look on eBay - I don’t know how many you need or what size, but just out of curiosity, I looked & there seemed to be a lot of them & not too pricey - but, even without, it looks fantastic - you & your husband make a great team - I’ve never had a boyfriend or husband who could - or would - do anything around the house !

@tinamenon1593 Год назад

Why not use your offcuts from the rug to make small horizontal carpet cushions for armchairs or beds?

@ariellelewis2968 Год назад

So gorgeous! So you have any advice for doing this on stairs that turn halfway up on a landing?

@aprilwharton2635 Год назад

What stain color are your floors and trim, is it mahagoney, walnut...beautiful, can't quite tell...

@Lisacabrerra Год назад

Why didn’t you center the rug? I’ve never seen anyone install a stair rug like that before.

@KrystaMeeker Год назад

It is centered at the top. You’ve more likely not seen staircases quite like ours. We had to choose whether to center the runner at the top or at bottom because the stair widths change, not terribly uncommon but ours starts much higher than you typically see. After some research we found that professional installers always recommend centering at the top.
