Final week, I shared just a few wallpapers that had caught my eye for potential use on the ceiling of my future walk-in closet. For those who missed these wallpaper choices, you’ll be able to see them on this put up: Wallpaper Choices For My Closet Ceiling.
So I ordered a pattern to be actually sure that it regarded that fairly in particular person earlier than ordering sufficient for the closet ceiling. And in particular person, it’s completely beautiful.
However I had two ideas about it. First, I feel it is likely to be too darkish to go on a ceiling. I knew it was darkish once I ordered it, and I believed that I’d in all probability be advantageous with having a darkish wallpaper on the ceiling. However when it comes proper right down to it, I’m a white ceiling type of particular person. I very particularly and deliberately paint my ceilings white as a result of I like them to be shiny. The hallway lavatory is the one room in our home that doesn’t have a white ceiling, and whereas I like the ceiling in that room, there’s little doubt that it makes the room really feel smaller and darker. (That is clearly an older image again when the room really regarded completed.)
I don’t thoughts that in a small visitor lavatory, however the extra I thought of it, the extra I spotted I’d quite have a lightweight, shiny ceiling in my closet.
However fairly truthfully, the second factor that I thought of this wallpaper is that it’s actually too fairly to be relegated to a closet. This wallpaper is spectacular, and I really wish to reserve it for a way more distinguished place on our home. I feel our future eating room can be the proper place for it. That room might be proper within the heart of the kitchen, music room, and lounge. (And sure, our future kitchen might be both the identical or a really comparable shade.)
However that implies that I wanted a brand new wallpaper for the closet ceiling, and I discovered the proper one. This time, I headed to Photowall.com, which is the place I bought the mural that I used behind the tub in our lavatory…
They’ve an enormous choice of murals, and you may customise the scale, so I knew I used to be certain to seek out the proper mural for my closet ceiling. I particularly looked for “watercolor floral”, which gave me numerous outcomes. After which I simply regarded for one which had the proper colours.
I selected this one as a result of it has extra orange in it than the others. And since orange might be a distinguished shade within the bed room, carrying that into the closet simply made sense to me.
However I additionally get my touches of pink like I needed. As soon as the mural is cropped to suit the ceiling in my closet, it’ll look extra like this…
The wallpapered ceiling will solely be within the closet portion of the room, and never within the laundry space of the room. I’ve an concept for the way I’m going to separate the 2 areas to make them really feel extra like two separate areas, however I’ll share extra on that later.
