Inspiration:

         We had wainscot going up the staircase in the house I grew up in and I wanted to mimic it in this house.

Process:
        I started out by using my graphics software and drawing the wainscot onto a picture of my staircase by doing
        it helped me determine the number of boxes I wanted going up the stairs.  Next I figured out the dimentions of
        the boxes and purchased the wood.  I then cut the chair rail and installed it then proceeded to cut the picture
        molding and installed it, chalked then painted.  The angled cuts were done using my miter saw and table saw.
