Stairway to Heaven

I think I’m obsessed with stairs. Climbing stairs, looking at stairs, seeing stairs in movies. I don’t know what it is. They are just dreamy.

So, today while I’m linking up with The Vintage Apple for Oh, How Pinteresting Wednesday I thought I’d share some of my snazzy stairway finds with you.

I found random stairs. Stairs I would never want to climb, swirly stairs, floating stairs, neon stairs…

And, I found a million sets of staircases that I love and wouldn’t mind having in my future home. Here are some of my favorites:

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

Did you notice the animal print carpet on that last one? Can’t say I’ve ever seen that before!

I could go on and on but I don’t want to bore you with endless pictures of stairs (no matter how exhilarating that sounds to ME!) I assure you, pretty soon I’m just going to have to create a board on Pinterest dedicated strictly to staircases. Sigh.

I’d love to hear which staircase is your favorite! Am I the only one with this obsession? Anyway, go link up and show off your latest pins :)

I love grand staircases that are long and wrap around. the one with the Chandelier is perfect!

I love staircases too... Though after living in a ranch-style home I would be okay not having stairs in my house - ever. I can appreciate their beauty though :) One of the homes we visited in the HomeFest here in Norman had leopard carpet on the stairs up to the bonus room. Jon hated it but I kind of really loved it, it just "worked" with the house, you know?

First off, you are TOO cute and I LOVE all the stairs! My mom had her stair case tiled in her house and I almost slip down them every time I wear heels..ha! They look great though!
XOXO,

I love the HUGE staircases, have you seen the ones where the planks open up for storage? awesome idea. also, those stairs that are just planks coming out of the wall? I would get so dizzy walking up those!!!

staircases are SO cool! the grander the better! but i really love the animal print one at the bottom...that screams me

i think having a staircase that is awesome will be required when I buy a house (whenever that may be)

K_stets said...

That first set of stairs in insane! But I want them....or all of the ones in the pictures.

Courtney said...

Wow, those first set of stairs are crazy!! I definitely agree that I would never want to climb them!

I love the first set of "good" stairs painted aqua...they are so cute!

Nicole Marie said...

i would be terrified climbing those stairs with no railing.
obsessed with the coral stairs though

Unknown said...

Suzzie Vehrs said...

haha I love that you love stairs. that's cute. I like the ones that are neon!! so cool!

Leeann @ Join the Gossip said...

OK I have a weird confession...I am afraid of stairs lol! But just the ones that aren't solid like the 3rd and 6th pictures. I know, I'm weird. I think it's because I am terrified of heights. All of the other staircases are beautiful though!

Lindsay @ Delighted Momma said...

Woaa woaaa!! ALL of these are amazing!! I think the wooden ones are my favorite! That would be pretty awesome to have stairs like in my house for sure!

XO

Hi Chelsea, I'm a new reader and I love your blog! :D

I've always loved stairs too so when I saw this post, I knew I had to comment!

My favorites are the spiral ones and the big breezy white one with the giant chandelier and doors open to the outside.

My dream house would have a big cherrywood spiral staircase and a giant domed library with rolling ladders (not stairs, but close).

Your blog is great! Please check out mine: opinionsareimmunity.blogspot.com
