Spiralling Out of Control

Our cottage extension is moving so fast I am dizzy. Below is a picture of our existing staircase - people after more than 2 glasses of wine have peed in the garden rather than risk climbing those stairs.
We have taken the mammoth decision to replace this little narrow thing with a much wider one in the new extension. My plan is to stand on it with a long dress on and be pictured like the lady in the top picture. My stairs will only wind once as the ceiling is so low in a cottage so maybe I will just have to wear a mini dress.

spiral staircases are beautiful. And Tim Walker put it to good use in that photo.

Definitely need high ceilings for that one! I'm sure your new spiral staircase will be a beauty, like its owner. See you in August! xo
