I collected other vintagy-bird-related items from around the house and stuck it up on the wall to join in on the theme.
Hubby wasn’t crazy about the whole idea of painting numbers on the risers. I used stickers so that if I tire of them down the road I can scrape them off. Plus they were soooo much easier than creating stencils for each.
The lovely people over at JK Vinyl Designs are giving one of you ladies (gents?) a custom vinyl design. I have requested for you (hope you don’t mind) that this design be one of numbers! Who can’t use some cute vinyl numbers? Think numbers on the back of your dining chairs, on your steps, up some drawers, on some Christmas boxes…. It will be cute. To be entered in the giveaway all you have to do is link up to the party. I’ve asked JK Vinyl to choose a winner. Good luck!

Darn, I was too late for the party! I really enjoyed seeing all the staircases though, especially yours. Loved the numbered stairs. Very creative.– Delores

Those stairs look great! I've always wanted to do this in a house and had a plan if we had stayed in Philly- your courage in decorating is slowly helping me find my own…
Funky Junk Interiors says
Beth, those are GORGEOUS!!! Love the design enhanced numbers for a nice change. They look so great against your rustic brick wall. I smiled at the birdhouses, that is so something I'd come up with. 🙂
I posted my new staircase minus the carpet. Ah well. It's a start.

tooooooo fabulous!!!
Jennifer Juniper says
How lucky you are to have that wonderful brick wall! It has such character! My poor staircase is lacking…
Elizabeth (blue clear sky) says
Such a great idea for a party, but since my stairs are needing some loving after living here for ten years, I won't be joining in.
Your brick wall is totally gorgeous! The numbers are pretty cute too! I'm off to check out some more.
Jane says
Beth, all these staircases are amazing…what a fun party! Sorry I missed out, but I couldn't convince the hubby to remove our horrible carpeting!
fawnda says
I love your stairs! WOW!
I am stretching it a bit with my pool steps, but I had to find some way to come to your party! : )

Your staircase looks AMAZING! I have 3 stories worth of stairs in my house…ALL carpeted. I would love to make a transformation like this! Really, your staircase is fabulous!!
MMW says
SO Pretty! What a great transformation. Love the birdhouses with the rustic brick wall.
Grace @ Ruby Moon Designs says
Love, LOVE your staircase! Wish I had one to share, but I just live in a one story…so I'll just have to gawk over all the beautiful stairs that I see and hope for some of my own someday! I love the bird theme that you have going on! And those number stickers add just the right touch! Thanks for letting me stare!

What beautiful staircases! Great inspiration…
Jen C. says
Love it! Beth, you took on the steps and climbed the ladder successfully to the top of the stair redo world! The bird theme is fun and whimsical – they'll be wonderful with the Christmas decorations. How about those stickers – I thought for sure you laboriusly stenciled each one, and yet you amaze us again with finding an easier and better way to bring it all together. 🙂
Linda @ Craftaholics Anonymous says
Wow! You're stairs look fab! Way to go! Thanks for the reminder! I swear I forget everything!!

Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality says
Beth, I love, love your stairs and that cool brick wall. Gorgeous, all of it. Love your numbers too.
I'm having a giveaway today too, come on over! I don't have an exciting staircase, but wish I could have joined the party. Maybe next time.
Jenny @ Words on Wendhurst says
Your stairs look fabulous. I love the contrast between the treads and the risers, and I love that brick wall. Gorgeous.
TRICIA @ The Zoo says
Oh my gosh, Beth. Your stairs look beautiful! I love the numbers, and I think I actually agree with your husband that stickers are a great idea! Love them.
I am hanging my head in absolute shame when I say this, but mine are not done. Life apparently got in the way of me remembering that it was the 18th already. The fact that I only have 3 steps to redo makes that sad, doesn't it?! 🙁 I'm sorry. I had such plans. I can't wait to check out the other links, though. Maybe if I get really ambitious today (meaning no 2 y.o.) intervention, I will do a before pic post and do a drawing of what they will look like.
XO*Tricia
P.S. My husband now has a crush on your gorgeous brick wall too. 😉

Beautiful work! I love the after. I really {HEART} the birdhouses! You did a fantastic job with the decor, it's warm and flowing with the staircase. The numbers are an added touch that adds just a bit of pop. Great idea to use stickers so if you tire of the look you can change it up!
Amy {The Red Chair Blog} says
Love your staircase! The numbers are too cool! Thanks for hosting this party–got me motivated to finally post about my staircase!!
Anonymous says
Love how it turned out!! So much!
And I really like the keys on the "Bless This House" sign, too 🙂
Love it! Great job!

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says
This looks great, Beth! I wondered if you had painted the numbers on {that could get time consuming}, but love to hear they are stickers. I like the white you added to the risers. I have plain old pine stairs and was wondering how that would look.
Little Lizard says
Incredible job! I've been really excited about this party.
Chelsy@ Sweet Pea Kisses says
Oh, it's so pretty! They all are, in fact. I am so jealous I don't have a staircase to stare at…believe me, I looked. I wanted to join the party so bad, I tried to talk hubby into building me some stairs, he wouldn't bite…darn it!! I am still searching the neighbors houses to see if they have any staircases I can makeover 😉 hopefully I will find one before the deadline. Until then, I will just enjoy yours and all your guests 🙂
Dayka says
Love the numbers on the stairs–what a cute idea. I haven't posted on my entry/staircase yet because I'm not finished!! Photos to hang this weekend . . .
Shannon says
your stairs are amazingly beautiful. I know I have probably said this before, but I will say it again, I LOVE THE BRICK! I was too lame and didn't participate in this party. My stairs are ugly.
Kim @ NewlyWoodwards says
Wow! Your stairs are fabulous. Truly lovely! And, I love the birdhouses. Such a fun decor item.
I have to say, my stairs are getting a bit of a inferiority complex, but we'll put them out there anyhow. =)
Lee @ thriftybeaver.com says
I love how your stairs turned out Beth. So beautiful! Sorry I didn't have something more exciting to share. I didn't plan well. Eek!
Also, this was my first ever blog party-how fun!! Now I wanna join every party I find!
Cindy says
Wish I could play, but as I mentioned before, my staircase is UGLY with all capital letters.
*Yours* is absolutely stunning! Love that brick wall and the bird house theme is like rustic chic goodness. :o)
I'll have fun getting inspired starring at all the other party goers' stairways.
Sarah @ Thrifty Decor Chick says
This is AWESOME!!! Ohhhh you make me want to get a move on my project!!! You did such a fantastic job. I forgot about this post and figured it would work for this party, I hope it's OK! 🙂
Susan (Between Naps on the Porch) says
Hi Beth,
Love the risers painted white…great transformation! The numbers are such a whimsical edition! I covet that wonderful brick wall…it's gorgeous! I always love an exposed brick wall…adds so much warmth and character.
Happy Stare at My Staircase Party! I'm staring and I'm liking! 🙂 Susan
Chris says
Look at me! I'm the first to arrive. Let's drink all the wine before anyone else gets here! 🙂
