These are beautiful ideas! Thanks so much for the links!

A question though: Where do you stop the wall paper or paint or chair rail? At the top of the stairs? Or do I only do the wall that leads to the master bedroom? [/quote]

12:06 again.  You're welcome.
Typically the upstairs hallways stops at any doorway into any room and at the corner which turns down a stairway.   Like this:

If your stairway goes up and the side wall continues into the hallway upstairs, then I would have the stairway wall match the upstairs hallway walls.  On the first floor, the stairway wall could be a different color than the rest of the foyer and would just be an accent wall.  Like this:

or this:

This is assuming that you don't want to do the upstairs hallway, the stairway and the downstairs foyer all the same color (which a lot of people do).[/quote]
