We have been working on our stairs since moving day. They are wide and are right at the center of our entryway. Here they were before we moved in:
Once we took the carpet off, we realized that we wanted to keep then uncovered:

In addition to feeling like the project is moving forward, now you can walk on our stairs in bare feet and not worry about having your tetanus vaccines up to date. It's the little things♥.
