What you can do to add pizazz above you!

I really love what someone in Montreal, Canada did to her bathroom ceiling. Adds so much of a POP to the space!

Might just do a great wall decal on the top! Often we leave out the ceilings in ignorance (or budget!) but once you add a touch of something special to your ceiling it can be so unique, make your cookie cutter home totally yours.

What about a painting a mural like the above-mentioned interior designer and fellow-blogger?

Or perhaps play with moldings like interior designer Tommy Smythe on design inc. did with a lush bedroom makeover? You can just see it at the top right hand corner of the room.


(Can't get a great close up of the ceiling but I found this other one, via Flickr in Chicago. The episode above was of a master bedroom, looks amazing!)


Or paint the ceiling a contrasting colour.

Or stick glow in the dark little stars on the ceiling. My hubby did that as a child and it still looks rather surreal! For children's rooms it's a real joy to switch off the lights at night and see the stars "light up"!

Or put objects on the ceiling, like Red 8, a Wynn restaurant who's put up place settings on his ceiling! via Flickr


Or for the over-the-top look, copy what the Library at the Empress did!

Whatever you do, don't go painting clouds on the ceiling, looks real tacky!
