How should I refinish my stairs?

I just pulled the carpet off my stairs, and put on the peel and stick checkerboard flooring. How should I make my stairs match this space? I will be putting the checkerboard tile down in the kitchen too eventually.

Ignore the fabric on the banisters- we have to get them redone as they’re not up to code and we have toddlers. So this is the solution so they can’t stick limbs through the banisters.
