The main route through your home is the staircase and yet so many of us neglect our halls in favour of the main rooms of the house. It’s time to give the backbone of your home a little love – enter the stair runner!



In this episode, Laura Jackson gets the inside scoop from Kate Watson-Smyth who runs an interior styling consultancy and blog Mad About Your House.



Kate discusses the importance of the first impressions in your home, how to keep your hall cohesive with your entire house,  and then shares her expert design tips for your stairs. 



Laura then slips into the practical world of installing stair runners with Nicola Edwards, the founder of Nicola Edwards Carpet Edging. 



Nicola explains in detail all things stair runners – from the best material options, how to accurately measure and fit it and whether you should DIY it.
