What colours are your ceilings?

[Springforward]

Fingers crossed, we'll be redecorating our new home soon (to keep me sane while we wait for an exchange date, I'm planning the refurb!).

There's no wallpaper anywhere so we'll be sticking with paint, and I'm kind of thinking of doing a magnolia job at first, at least until we've lived with the place for a while.

So - if you have magnolia walls, do you also have magnolia ceilings?

I've always had white ceilings/ doors/ woodwork in the past but recently have visited a couple of houses where the walls and ceilings are the same (pale) colour, and think I quite like it. It would also save all that faffing at the join of two colours too! What do you think?

One of the ceilings I have inherited has yellow and blue spotty wallpaper on it

Fab advice on painting - thank you. PigletJohn, I will go and find myself a proper decorating shop!

One of the ceilings is stained badly yellow with cigarette smoke , and it's one of those funny stippled effect jobs - I'm guessing I'll have to wash it first somehow, any advice on what to use/ how to do it?

beachy, one house we looked at had tartan wallpaper on ceilings and wall in the downstairs loo!

Wallpapered ceilings are too scary for me and DH to handle, frankly - we seriously did not offer on one house we saw because it was woodchipped on every wall and ceiling.

As ever, TIA.

My first flat had a small bathroom with no windows. I decided it needed painting a bright and cheerful colour. I painted the whole room banana yellow, ceiling included.

You learn.

Brilliant white everywhere for me these days.

White, it's the law....

Our are f&b pointing in the rooms we've decorated, I love it, very soft.
