Tower balcony railings - detail


otterine

Once you have a balcony, you have to keep people from tumbling over its edges.

At the edge of the staircase, I used a portion of preassembled wood railing and a Houseworks narrow newel post. I opted to paint it Warm White to blend in with the tower wall. It's a small space and too much contrast wouldn't have worked.

For the portion overlooking the main room, I bent a piece of plastic railing from The Dolls House Emporium. I also cut off the finials from the upper edge. It wasn't easy to bend and I did snap one of the small connections which had to be super glued, but overall it worked well. The curve isn't that severe. I sprayed it with flat black to tone down the plastic sheen and glued it in place.
