Staircase Love

These are a couple of my FAVORITE staircase pictures. You can tell by the last picture that I have hung pictures similarly. But, I'm now trying to decide what color to paint these walls. I love this blue. But I always gravitate toward this blue. This picture is from California Homes magazine. This staircase is very neutral, but I think it's beautiful. I'm sure its the combination of wood floor, black accents and gilt frames. I also love the toile and checked fabrics in the living room. This picture is from Better Homes & Gardens, 2004.
Here's my staircase. Of course, the photography isn't nearly as good. There are no rays of sunlight streaming down and bouncing off the beautiful wood floors. Maybe someday. It has potential though. The light blue/gray is a possibility. Any suggestions?

  3. I love the idea of a slate blue/gray color. I always love that feel with creamy white trim and wood floors.
    I'm sure you'll choose well. You have great taste.
