Learn how to make carpet on stairs look new.
I found this idea in a 1948 book of household hints: Is the carpet on your stairs old and worn? Make make carpet on stairs look new by moving the carpet up or down half a step. That way the unworn riser sections will now rest on the steps, and the threadbare spots will be moved to the risers, where they won’t show as much.
