Sky Painted Ceiling – Kitchen Ceiling Makeover

See how new lighting and a sky painted ceiling transforms this kitchen. 

A kitchen is one of the most important rooms in a home, and this one was in serious need of a makeover.

This kitchen happens to be mine.

If I’d have known how great updating my kitchen would feel, I’d have done it sooner.

 

Here are pictures of the old, drop-down ceiling with fluorescent lighting. It’s being updated to recessed lighting.

And here is the ceiling with modern recessed lighting.

My electrician did an wonderful job upgrading the lighting in my home. And it looks dramatically different than the previous drop-down, 1950’s ceiling, I had before.

Since the recessed lighting was complete, I patched, sanded, and primed the ceiling.

Next, I painted the ceiling a base white color.

Finally, the ceiling was ready for painting in the clouds. This is the part I was waiting for so I went to town creating the soft blue clouds I had been envisioning.

Painted clouds on the ceiling can make a room feel amazing.

 

Here is a video showing the sky painted ceiling.

 

 

Wow – What a dramatic difference!

I had always envisioned a painted sky on my ceiling and now, I have faux clouds that look and feel beautiful.

Often when I sit in an adjoining room, I glance over and notice my sky ceiling. Looking at my hand-painted clouds makes me feel so happy. And I painted them.
