Q: the handrails and trim before painting the stairs. It's best to start with the handrails on a staircase for several reasons. If you create drips while painting the railings and trim, you won't be dripping on the finished surface of the stairs. You will also be free to move up and down the stairs without the risk of creating wear and tear on your finished paint job on the stairs. Also, with the railings, balusters, and trim painted first, you don’t have make sure they are super dry before moving on with the next phase of painting. If you paint the stairs themselves first, they need to be very dry before continuing on with your project. the edges around the railings and trim with painter's tape. Run the edge of the tape tightly at the edges where you want the paint to end. Then push the tape down with your fingertips or a putty knife to ensure that paint doesn’t seep underneath it.  Taping off can take a long time, especially in tight areas, such as around the balusters. However, remember that it is worth it to take your time to tape it all off well before you start painting. You may need to tape off areas in phases. For example, if you are planning on painting the handrail and balusters a different color than the trim, then you should tape off the trim while you paint the handrail and spindles first. In general, the trim and railings are painted at the same time because they are usually the same color and the same type of paint. Spread drop cloths above and below the staircase area to protect your floors. Also cover the stairs themselves and any furniture that you can’t move out of the way but that might get splattered. Use painter’s tape to keep the drop cloths in place. Starting at the top of the stairs, paint the handrail first and then work down the balusters to the trim at the bottom. You can either do a small part of the whole railing at a time, for instance 2 feet (0.61 m) sections, or you can prime the entire handrail, then all of the balusters, and then all of the bottom trim.  For the railings and the trim you will likely use a brush, as a roller is hard to get into small areas. Prime the entire handrail and all the trim before moving on to your finish coats. Pick a primer that is made to adhere to previously painted surfaces and ones that will get wear and tear. Good primer is important in order to create a durable finished surface by creating a good bond between previous coats of paint and your new paint. Wait for the specified amount of time listed on the container for the primer to dry and then start your final coats. Using smooth strokes, work your paintbrush from the top of the railing, down each baluster, and along the bottom trim, making sure to coat every surface. Work your way down the stairs as you did with the primer coat.  You should do 2 to 3 coats of the final color. Be sure to let each layer dry completely before starting on the next. This will create a stronger paint finish that will stand up to the wear and tear that stairways experience. Score along the edge of the tape with a putty knife or a razor blade. Then slowly peel the tape off. Peeling it slowly will help ensure that it doesn’t pull off the new paint along with it. Once you are done actively painting, you can pick up the drop cloths. However, be careful not to smudge your work by touching the railing or trim with the drop cloths as you move them.
A: Paint Tape off Cover surrounding areas with drop cloths. Paint the primer on the railing, working your way down the railings and the stairs. Apply several coats of your final color once the primer is dry. Allow the paint to dry completely before removing the tape.

Q: This is one of the easiest ways to accessorize. Color is one of the most important aspects of your dress, and if you pick accessories that are similarly colored to your dress, it will make your outfit look balanced and well put together.  If you are wearing a light pink dress, choose pink or rose-colored accessories to go along with it. Matching doesn’t have to be exact. For example, you can still wear dark pink shoes with a light pink dress. This adds some funkiness to your matching. Instead of matching your accessories to the overall color of the dress, match them to a secondary color in your dress. This works especially well with patterned dresses, because there is more than one color you can match with. If you are wearing a white dress with pink and blue flowers, wear pink or blue accessories. This is a great way to match with your dress in a more nuanced way. If your dress is an extremely bright color like bright yellow, wear neutrals to offset it. If you match your accessories directly with your brightly colored dress, you may look eccentric rather than put together.  White, black, tan and brown are all neutrals that look good with almost any color. If you prefer some bling, try gold or silver jewelry instead. A patterned dress already has a lot going on. If you throw in accessories that are patterned or intricate, the look becomes too much. Your shoes, bag, belt, and/or jewelry should all be solid-colored. These accessories will help your dress make its statement.  Try bright, red pumps with a blue-and-while polka dotted dress. If your dress has a floral pattern on it, a pair of simple, stud earrings would look especially cute. Pair it with black or leather flats to complete the look. If your dress is a neutral color like white, beige or tan, adding a bright accessory gives your outfit oomph. Whether it be a statement necklace, a handbag or your shoes, try to make one of your accessories a bright color. If your dress is a solid color, try wearing a patterned handbag or shoes. For example, you could wear a polka dotted bag with a white dress. Every color has a tone. Red, orange, and yellow all have a warm tone. Green, blue and purple are all cool toned. Similarly, gold has a warm tone to it while silver has a cool tone.  Don't be afraid to experiment, however; gold can look quite striking with green. White and black are considered neutral tones, so you can wear gold or silver jewelry with them. Brown and tan come in cool and warm undertones. In this case, match the jewelry to the undertone.
