My parents did this in their bedroom. It looks awesome.

The ceilings in our bedroom and walkin in closet are white because we finished the rooms with white crown moulding to go with the white woodwork. Had we gone in another direction I would have painted the ceilings in those rooms.

The ceiling in our living room is painted the same color as the secondary, more yellow color in the room. I like the look because it gives the very long and narrow room a bit more depth.

I can't stand white ceilings! It makes me feel like the room is unfinished. The only room that I've really accepted it in so far is my living room, which is a medium gray with white crown molding. In that room it looks ok. I sort of like the look of taking the ceiling color down onto the wall a little, or taking the wall color up onto the ceiling for a few inches.

In my parents home the ceilings are not painted...mostly for the fact they are that popcorn finish or whatever, so it would be difficult to get them back to white before selling (if they sell). In my apartment, both the walls and ceilings are a plaster/sheetrock popcorn(?) finish and i have to paint it back before i move out...so i am lazy and didn't do it. however, i may very well when i buy a house...my boyf is no good with decorating and colors so i am sure i can talk him into it lol

I always paint my ceilings!

When we painted last fall the guest bathroom, we painting the ceiling a dark blue to go with the shower curtain, i was going to paint yellow star but never got around to it.

my bedroom does not get much natural light, so i made it the "dark" room and painted the ceiling black. i have high ceilings so i can get away with this color! the walls are a very light tiffany blue with candy apply red trim on the mouldings. it looks goes well with modern decor, woodblock prints, and surrealism. i have a black chandelier in my bedroom, too, and i think it looks really cool with the ceiling black, too. it was a bold move, but the results were great.

I like that room, minus the giant, gold mirror! The painted ceiling is definitely a nice touch.

I would definitely paint my ceilings. As you said Casa, there is so much potential to bring additional life to the room!!!

When my brother and I were in high school my parents repainted both of our rooms, mine was Moulin Rouge themed and my brother's was way cool and modern. Anyway both of our ceilings were painted. Mine was painted to look almost like a skylight where it was blue in the middle with stars, the rest of the ceiling was pink or red (can't remember) My brother's room: two of the walls were blue and one wall and the ceiling were green.

So I was going to paint my ceiling white bbut after looking at the photo above I am so not going to. Does anyone know the name of the color they used because it is the exact color I wanted for my room!!!

I love that color blue!!

Think I'll end up painting my ceilings when I stop renting but I won't really know until I'm.. wherever I end up.
