I just finished decorating the stairs, I can’t wait to show you!
I love this picture from Southern Living, the simplicity of it really speaks to me!

We are off to our town’s tree lighting and food fest tonight, the kids are really excited,
OK….so am I!
They have everything from sushi and tapas to Italian and BBQ!
Have I ever told you my love for food?
The best part of it all is we have a few neighbors that are the most amazing cooks ever!
Yes, I’ve been known to invite myself over at times.
Don’t worry, we are all really good friends.

I absolutely love all those banister ideas, although I don't have one in my house. The pictures are just as fun to look at!! I must say I'm a bit jealous of all that yummy food you get to eat!! I think its because I'm starving! I hope you have tons of fun with your family!! Happy Holidays:)
Such pretty pictures. I can't wait to see what you've done. I love food too! I'm on the way to the neighbors for gumbo!!
Dear Kristin!
I love stairs. I love wide stairs. I love old stairs. I love …… π But I have only a narrow and modern stair. Left a wall, right a wall π
Have I ever told you my love for food?
I remember a discreet mention…….. :-))
I hope, you have a wonderful night and fun!!!
Hugs

Beautiful pictures! I can't wait to see your stairs! Have fun tonight, that sounds like so much fun!!! Food is my friend, eat some for me!! π
Your second inspiration pic is just like my entry! I have that one in my tearouts so I could copy it, but it's not quite there. π
Have fun at the tree lighting! My favorite one in town is tomorrow night but we have to miss it this year π
Enjoy!
Lots of ideas. Enjoy the tree lighting ceremony in town.
Enjoying your inspirational pictures for staircase decorating but since we don't have stairs in our house, we won't be decorating a staircase obviously. I wish!
Bye,
Marian
Oooooh your evening sounds lovely. We had basketball practice followed by a Celtics game we watched when we got home……not exactly getting me in the Christmas spirit. I'm living vicariously through you right now! I love that pic of the entry from Southern Living with the big portraits of the dog – that is so fun and unexpected isn't it? Even if that wasn't the reason you posted that photo I just had to comment!
Great pictures! I especially like the second one; I'm going to use it as an inspiration picture for my entry. I'm not decorating this year for Christmas because I'm moving. I blogged about it at http://somereallyneatstuff.blogspot.com/2010/12/im-not-decorating-for-christmas-this.html. I love your blog!
Well, I'm inspired. Now I just need a staircase π Beautiful images!
hey kristin! i love these pictures! i am in the process of decorating my banister and it looks very similar to these! i hope it turns out as pretty! hoping to post some pictures soon! i cant wait to see yours! have fun!
Your tree lighting festival sounds like fun! That is what I miss about small town living. You guys have all the fun!
Love all the stairs and pretty decorated banisters…lots of ideas!
XO,

I would love to have a bannister to decorate but we have a one story house. Pretty pictures! Hope you had a fun evening! I'm off to a Christmas luncheon tomorrow at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco which is always very festive. I look forward to seeing your decorated stairs!
The last one is my favorite!! wowwwww……i like them….happy day darling….love Ria….
love the BHG one…
Happy Decorating and food eating!
I {heart} food, too. π
The first and second pictures are my favs! Can't wait to see it.
Sadly – I love food too! I'm terribly obsessed:)
Have a fun weekend!
I am going to put a tree up today. It really is the last thing that I want to do but when you have a son that will soon be leaving home, you have to make it festive. I don't recommend moving two years in a row at the holidays:( Hope you had fun at your outing.
I wish we had a festival like that here!!! Hope you and the kids have ALOT of fun, sure you will!!! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I so appreciate visitors! Can't wait to see your stairway. I will post mine….OK, it is a PIECE of the stairway that I decorate….you'll see why:):) XO, Pinky
Hi Kristin…look forward to seeing your stairs decorated!!! We have stairs too and they are all new to me!!! A tree lighting and food fest…what fun for you all…Hope you had a wonderful time in this lead up to Christmas…Dzintraβ₯x
Some of my favorite pictures too! The Food Fest sounds like a blast!!
These are lovely! Love the ones from Country Living! Enjoy the day, Kellie xx
I love the dog prints in the first photo, too cute!
Wow Kristin!! You know I love stairs!! These pics are beautiful! As soon as I can I will show you some new pics of the house, with the new colour, the stairs, the parquet.. I'm so excited π
