A WOMAN has left people stunned after she proudly showed off her ”waterfall’ staircase which at first glance looks like something very rude.
Renee Clark, from the USA, took to TikTok to show off the waterfall-inspired staircase she had allegedly painted herself.
To give the stairs a waterfall-like appearance, the DIYer went in with heaps of blue paint, before adding white elements to it for the splashing effect.
The epic transformation, which seems to have been achieved with spray paint, also included some greenery and rocks on the side.
For a more 3D feel, the DIY enthusiast also sprayed dark paint to achieve shadows.
According to Renee, who posts under the username @renee.clark18, she’s clearly chuffed with the results, which have come out so realistic, she feels dizzy when walking downstairs.
”It definitely trips me out when I walk down it,” the TikToker wrote in the comments of the video.
”It came together in the end,” said Renee, who hasn’t revealed how long the process took.
However, whilst the final result was certainly impressive, the clip soon went viral for all the wrong reasons, amassing more than an astronomical 10million views.
Thousands flocked to comments, where the vast majority admitted that not only did they not have any ”faith” in the makeover at first – but that the top of the staircase also resembled a certain male bodily fluid.
”Okay going down looks like [semen] puddles but looking from the bottom looks fine,” wrote one person.
”Just looks like someone let a huge load on ur stairs,” someone else agreed.
”you thought. I thought. we all thought,” a third chuckled.
Others also apologised for not trusting the process, with one TikToker writing: ”please excuse my DISGUSTING lack of faith.”
”Oh wow! At first I was thinking that looks nothing like water but then you got to the bottom and turned around, it looks amazing!” chimed in another fan of the staircase glow-up.
Hottest home trends for 2025
Renovations expert Andy Simms, from MyBuilder.com revealed the hottest interior design trends for this year.
COLOUR DRENCHING
Colour drenching involves using your colour across walls and ceilings to maximise the impact and create the illusion of a bigger space – doors, radiators, and even furniture won’t escape the paint job if you want the full effect. Brown, terracotta, beige – once the preserve of the 70s, earthy colours have been slowly gaining popularity. Similarly, bold greens and blues are also making a return, with the intention of colour drenching rooms.
STATEMENT WALLPAPER
Wallpaper divides designers, with some loving it and others preferring painted walls. 2025 will see a resurgence of wallpaper, and the bolder the better. For small spaces, such as downstairs loos or studies, choose a bold print and ignore any concerns about making the space look smaller. For larger spaces, consider a stunning mural theme.
BROKEN LIVING PLAN
Open plan living has been popular for over a decade now, but while it hasn’t quite had its day, many are returning to smaller, functional spaces – with a twist. “Broken plan” is when a bigger space is cut into various parts using screens, archways, crittal-style windows and doors or textured glass.
Feeling inspired to spruce up your home before the end of this year?
An interiors expert recently why purple is the worst colour to pick when painting your bedroom – and how it could be ruining your sleep.
Hannah Cooley, Product Manager at Hillarys, warned: ”Rumour has it, purple is one of the worst colours for your bedroom.”
This, she added, is because ”it can subconsciously provoke vivid dreams and nightmares due to its distracting effects”.
Winding down is an important part of your daily routine, especially once you’re done with all the adulting responsibilities.
A colour Do here, according to her, is pink.
”The colour pink is not just for girly bedrooms, it has a calming effect on the nerves and helps relieve feelings of anger and neglect.
”Go for a dusty pink that’s easy on the eyes to help you wind down once you come home after a long day at work.”
