Stairway to heaven!

I have been longing after the ombre stairs I saw on Pinterest.  Then I saw some rainbow ones.  My hubby won't let me buy any art for the hallway so the stairway was just a barren bore.  Although I loved the ombre stairs, teal to aqua, I just wasn't brave enough to do it.  So I did the next best thing.  I cut contact paper to fit each stair, painted it and stuck it up.  This way if I tire of it it won't be hard to get rid of.   Also I decided to do some weathering and stenciling which was much easier on the contact paper placed on a table than doing it vertically on the stairway.  Originally I went with the whole rainbow effect but decided to tone it down a bit. 

PS.  I don't have mice!  My daughter had a mouse themed 5th birthday so I found these great little mouse decals on Etsy.  Aren't they cute?  Again, not committed to them as they are stuck on the contact paper not my stairs!

Give it a try!  Good luck!
