chrisgolden Can you tell me what stain/paint color you used to achieve the white-washed look on your ceiling? I have pine board samples drying in my basement right now as I'm trying to achieve this look for my great room ceiling. I purchased Minwax Pickled Oak, Zar (can't remember the stain color) and Linen White (Benjamin Moore) latex paint. I'm not sure what I'll think when they dry, it's very hard to tell right now.
But, I like your ceiling and i'd love to know what you used. Thanks!
jeanegeland I love this ceiling also and have boards drying as well. Have you gotten an answer on the ceiling color? Were you able to achieve that color on pine? Thanks!
Scandinavian modern: This European style emphasizes materials through simplicity. This white kitchen/dining space is infused with warmth from the wood floor, walls and table. Interesting shapes come from the Panton S chairs and the floor lamp.
Whitewashing helps cover up and gloss over any painting errors, giving you a blank slate — painting everything white can hide a multitude of sins. Rooms appear bigger, and boundaries blur. Some tricky architectural elements in the small space here have been skillfully dealt with using white.
