Aerial view of upper deck

The posts are 5/16" strip wood and the porch boards were made from Woodsies skinny sticks, all stained with IKEA antique pine. I followed a front to back direction until I reached the stairs, where I turned the boards the same direction as the stairs. I replaced the stair treads with strip wood and stained them to match. I used the existing kit laser cut railings and painted them white. I had to cut a few down to size and add some pieces that were meant to make the posts since my deck was a different configuration from the original.
