I hate our carpeted stairs but putting in hardwoods on a staircase is way to expensive. I may have found an alternative! Stained treads with white risers - beautiful! The banister needs to be stained darker anyways.... :)
We got the idea to stain our banister from this blog - Centsational Girl. She recently redid her laundry room too and I love it! Since our laundry room shares a home with the downstairs bathroom ours won't look exactly like this but I love the concept and the colors.
I posted this picture awhile ago. I still am in need of a new front door {not to mention new windows and a new roof....}. I want to install a new front door and figure out how to add dimension to the front of our very boring house. {Any suggestions are welcome!}
One of the bigger projects I want to tackle is the kitchen. Our cabinets need a facelift and the cheap laminate countertop needs to go! I really would like a softer and brighter look in the kitchen.
And then there is the master bath. Where do I even start? This project won't probably happen for awhile - mostly because we have no idea where to start. But we want to open it up, get rid of the ugly builder grade sink {replace with something similar to the above picture}, and update the shower somehow.
Obviously we have been a bit preoccupied but I really want to get going on some projects soon! I'm thinking the stairs might be a good place to start.....
Naptime is over! Back to reality. :)

First I would like to know where you get this energy and if I can have some.
Second- give me ideas for MY house during the next naptime :)
okay, when I saw the first picture, I thought it was your house and was wondering how you were going to change around your stairs...because it seemed like what you wanted to do was what you already had...
I caught on with picture #2 :)
great ideas though...don't start too many of them at the same time ;)
Sorry for the confusion, Alison! My brain isn't working 100% these days. :) These are just my dreams for our house - I only have enough energy to plan at the moment. None of the projects are going to be started anytime soon!
i LOVE that stair idea. so fun!
