Staircases to Heaven....

I don't know what it is about a beautiful, grand staircase that can take your breath away!

They can be such beautiful art in any home setting.

Sometimes they are the major focal point of a room....

Sometimes you can picture Scarlett coming down the stairs in that gown that was made from the curtains...

And sometimes they are more breathtaking than practical...

They don't always have to be grand...

or even in good shape

...for us to appreciate their beauty!

They make beautiful settings for a special occasion...

...or just a beautiful setting.

Although you would have to live in a mansion to have most of these staircases, they are fun to look at and dream of the home that they grace.  I would feel funny in my shorts and flip-flops going up and down these stairs....I might have to dress up every time I wanted to use them.  Beautiful works of art!
