Well, it appears another week has come and passed and we will not close on our house. It’s not the end of the world, by no means. But, it has been kind of a stressful time and it has totally thrown my blog for a loop. We made offers and they were excepted in May! It’s going to be August before we move.
So, much for an editorial calendar. Living in a house of boxes, my hands are kind of tied for creating new content. And the plans I had for the new house, well they just can’t be executed until we are actually in the house. So, I say all this because (yes, I’m making excuses for myself) and also to thank you for sticking in there with me.
I still have hope that it will all work out, but just not in the timing I was hoping for. But, let’s pretend we are moving in and let’s talk about the awesome staircase that’s going to either need to be sanded and refinished or else replace the carpet stair runner. I’m not a fan of carpet, and I love hardwood floors. But, a stair runner could be a fun opportunity to add a little color and pattern.
Here’s a few fun options that I have me seriously considering a carpet stair runner.

So, what do you think? Is there one in this mix that you like best?
That first one with the southwest pattern is really eye-catching!
It’s good huh? I love a little Southwest, it actually reminds me a lot of Yemeni patterns.
Always enjoy your blog. I am Missouri and I wonder what is the hold up with the closing. Is this something that happens often in California?
I just don’t know. Maybe it’s a California thing. Hopefully it will all be done soon. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
So fun! I love the first two, and also the black rug on the white stairs. And I’m so glad that your moving misadventure is finally done!
It’s a relief to finally have this house. We are so blessed.
