DESIGN IDEA: GLOSS IT UP - A STYLISH CEILING SOLUTION!

I love the idea of adding visual interest to the ceilings in a home.  Why not try something different in at least one space in your home?

I like this idea...high gloss ceilings!  Here, interior designer Beth Webb used a super glossy pale blue paint on the curved ceilings in this hallway and living room.  The ceiling color contrasts ever so slightly with the white walls throughout the rooms.   The light blue is reminiscent of a bright sky on an early spring day.  Love it.  The ceiling almost looks like it has had several coats of lacquer applied to it.  I'm sure this look can be achieved with a super high gloss paint.

What do you think of this design idea?

I like the idea of using a pale color on the ceiling too...nothing too bold or contrasting...just adds some texture and depth to the rooms.

Do weigh in!  Do you love it or dislike it? Comment below.

Happy Wednesday (again)!

THIS OR THAT: BEAMED IN ON TWO LIVING ROOMS!

Two simple questions for you.

1. Do you like exposed beams in a home?
2. Which of these living rooms do you prefer?

Simple questions...may have more complicated answers but maybe not.

Let's see...these two country house living rooms...one in the U.S. one in Spain. Both with exposed beams but with two different styles of decor. Would be interested to know which you prefer. Hmmm...I'm still deciding...

Okay...not sure I would chose either if I had a choice of all rooms in the world...but if I had to chose one of these...I think you'll be surprised at which one I'd take. Will wait to hear from you before I give my selection. I'll add it in a P.S. here tomorrow. Okay...fess up...which room is it for you? THIS OR THAT?

Happy Thursday!
