Definitely worth painting them for now and seeing how you feel later. I had the same thing with some stairs of mine and just went nuts gathering images for inspiration. Have a look, some are fun, some are ok but see if anything here helps :)

There are lots of wallpapers with great designs. It is cheaper than paints and easy to install.

Your balustrades would look old and substantial in dark matte bronze. Maybe even flat black paint wiped on the details.

Plus, you can always swap out the runner as you like if you change your mind. This way you have something that you're not giving the side eye to because it's pulled together, but leaves you with the flexibility to change later on. Good luck, I can't WAIT to see the results :)
