After the flowers all go away and the leaves fall off, God sends winter sunsets over the snow-covered peaks that you pull off the side of the road for. I've about burnt out my hazard lights with these pull-offs! My camera has it's own slot in my purse for quick draws! All part of soaking in the daily beauty of this majestic place.
Baby Girl~BG~is 2 weeks old today. She resides 658 miles away from Denver and I need not tell you how F.A.R. that is in Granddaughter Miles. The heart can't calculate it! But pictures are getting us by for awhile and the way she smelled and the felt when I held her is still fresh. I'm wondering just how long I can go before desperately needing my next fix!
OK, my stairs are painted and the next step is to choose the stair runner and have it installed. After spending several days looking at decorating sites featuring stairwells, I have decided on a general color and border similar to these:
Tan Runner with Border or
Dark Runner with Design or
Solid Tan Plush
Below are my bare nekked stairs right now:
I also have seen a few options re: the banisters. I do not love these handrails as they are! No, never have, never will! After I get the runner installed I will decide on either painting them black, leaving the spindles white - or - painting them white, with the spindles black. Some of the links above have some of these options. What do you think? I think I will like them better either way!
Although my home is far from a "Tara", the more I plan, scheme, paint and stain, it becomes more and more MY HAVEN...and a place for my husband to come home to at night and exhale...
til Tomorrow!!
