What stain did you put on the pine ceiling?

    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!

      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!

      I would like to know what stain/process was used too. Did anyone find out? I would like to do this in a den that already has pine wood walls.

      Why doesn't the painter comment on paint color or process?

      The ceiling is beautiful. Is it pickled oak stain or white washed?
