THE JEALOUS CURATOR: ART GOES HERE.
hello, it’s danielle from the jealous curator back to hang a bit of art! so, a few weeks ago someone asked me what i’d do on a staircase – well, here you go!
ok, first things first – those stairs {that I found via poppytalk’s pinboard} are clearly begging to have some art on them. yes, directly on them:
gorgeous – all of them! {and of course, i had to include a beautiful staircase graced by the lovely lucy!} i found all of these ideas on pinterest, so if you’ve got stairs that are in need of a little artsy love, go search for “stairs” and then get ready to paint, tile, and mirrorball! now, about that bare wall:
yes! an amazing, crazy little kitschy collection by ma + chr would be perfect – or should i say parfait? ma + chr is an art and design studio based in paris, run by mathilde aubier and christine delaquaize {hence the ma, and the chr}. i would love to have them cover that wall in glamour-eyed kitties, and sweet little bow ties! ooh, and then of course you could always hire an amazing artist to come over to your house and do this:
sigh. san francisco based artist leigh wells and her red, tangled ribbons could cover my walls any time! seriously, i really really really want to do this in my house! well, there you have it. a staircase post. i thought it would be tricky, but it was really fun! where else do you want me to hang art? let me know, and i’ll be back again in two weeks with more walls, and more art! ~ the jealous curator xo
I tried to get my brother/contractor to agree to strip a stripe out of the middle of our 175 year old, painted white stairs, and he looked at me like I’d lost my mind and started speaking Martian. So yeah, we’re painting them indigo to match the upstairs hallway walls.
Now I need to find a runner rug that’s 190″! They all seem to max out at 130″!
Love this! We are fortunate enough to have four (!) sets of stairs in our house, and so I am always thrilled to find new ideas for them.
Staircases, no longer just for exercise!

ha! that’s right! :)
Love the different kinds of stairs! Really creative.
I wish I had stairs! But those old Southern California homes are too afraid of earthquakes. ;)

Brilliant! And perfect timing! I’m doing my stairs with wallpaper samples this wend! Thank you
Definitely love the Leigh Wells mural! Great choice for that wall…~sigh~
wouldn’t that be amazing?! i would LOVE a leigh wells mural anywhere in my house : )
I would LOVE to paint my staircase, but just not in this house. Ugh!!!
I’d so mirror my stairs and hang those pretty little kittens on the wall! Oh, what kitschy glamour. I love it!
all of it. i want, ALL OF IT.
Girl, I love a fabulous sassy staircase and this post is just killing me with awesomeness! YES!
oh, dottie… you’re the BEST! ; )
