Red Textured Ceiling
Wow! Add a red textured ceiling with gold crown molding and you get a powerful combination that equals one thing, Opulence! This ceiling is located in the dining area which co ordinates wonderfully with the surrounding furnishings. The room is warm and inviting with an old world touch.
Red a color of strength and passion also is known to enhance conversation and appetite, the dining room is just the right place for this color.
Hand painted gold crown moldings adds the sparkle of jewelery to enhance the dining experience.
The textured ceiling was lightly textured with a 6 in. blade and compound, primed and then base coated with a light tan latex eggshell finish. A sea sponge was used to apply the red glaze which was allowed to build up in the texture and also create a mottled affect.
The crown was base coated with a tan color and then coated with gold latex metallic finish. When the gold paint was dry a chocolate brown glaze was applied to enhance the design and leave an old world patina. Can't wait to see whats on the menu, bon appetit!

Coffered Ceiling Faux Painted
Coffered ceilings add a unique and elegant look to any room. Here is an example of how this type of ceiling can be decorated with paint. The ceiling panels were sponge painted with a subtle warm glaze and the crown moldings were fauxed to a warm mahogany with a satin finish. The soft off white painted beams have a great contrast with its neighboring colors making this ceiling pop.
