Our kitchen ceiling
With a little paint (okay, a lot of paint) and some talent (okay, our friend Mary is a professional) and inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright we were able to transform our plain white ceiling into something much more interesting.
Our design starts on the ceiling and then continues down the wall. Christe drew the original “pattern” (and also designed the curvy lighting fixture). We used all of the colors from our house, both interior and exterior to achieve the wild boldness. The purples are from our bedroom and sitting room, the yellows and golds from the living/dining room and hallway, the green from the exterior and the dark blue from the office/library/music room.
Such a cool paintjob for your ceiling! I love the frank Lloyd Wright-ness of it too
What a great use of those leftover paints.
This is a great idea! Love it!
Thanks! We certainly had fun doing it.
I shared it on facebook – we have several family members doing some decorating, and this is just such a great way to change everything! Thanks, too, for the time you spent today on my blog!
I loved reading about your adventures and I know I’ll enjoy hearing more as you get more settled into your retirement. There’s so much I need to learn before I get there myself in a few years.
Stay tuned!
