Stairway Statements

The other day when looking through my boards on Pinterest I stumbled upon this inspiring image I pinned long ago and it got me thinking.  The stairway isn't just a pass through space in the home.  It is where we hang our treasured family photos and showcase vacation memories.  But, instead of simply hanging them on walls why not create a statement piece.  After all, we take the time to redo the stairs and add a fresh vibrant coat of paint, so why not go one final step further and create a work of art.   Here are some of my favorite and most inspiring ways to freshen up the stairway.

Instead of pictures, a simply framed mirror, exotic vases, and a plant freshen up the white walls and rich wood and metal stairs.

I absolutely love how this classic stairway becomes more modern and eye catching with the geometric gold diamond wall hangings and the few touches of greenery.

Keep it simple.  Display only a few items from the same collection.  This creates an artistic harmony.

Lastly, try a bold statement with a bright and exciting wall paper, vibrant accent lights, and lots of character.
