The green feature ceiling is a color called “1990’s dental office” but I don’t know who makes it.. Just kidding!.We didn’t paint it because we’re going to bring the white ceiling down onto that sloping part too.. Here’s how the room looked when we first got started, just to refresh your memory:.

I’ve been busy painting away in the kitchen.This is the beadboard that we’re going to be installing on the ceiling in the room.. You will be shocked and a half when you see the next update of this room, I guarantee it!.You know, they say things always have to get worse before they get better..

Just wait until you see what’s happening in there right now!.
