Stairway Art

I finally tackled my stairway wall this weekend. I ordered wallpaper samples from Graham and Brown, all in the green family. Their samples are $2.00 each and size 8x10. (Let's not talk about the drywall banister.)

  3. The tin envelope mail holder is from scrapbooks.com. My friend Malia had it in her house and I loved it so much I got one as well. Here is the link:

  14. Sheena- hahaha. That made me laugh.

    I adore this idea, especially the part where it is a fraction of the price of overpriced art from a home store.
