Home improvement, gone wrong, & then made right

A recap, with pictures. See that tiled white ceiling? I hate those tiles. Matt & I planned to take them down 3 long years ago. We finally made time to do the demo over Spring Break with hopes of revealing a stunning higher ceiling, with no outdated ceiling tiles.

No go. Matt pulled a few down, along with quite a shower of insulation. only to find a bizarre framework of 2x4s & a lot more insulation. Enter Ellen & Plan B. A fresh coat of paint for the ceiling, walls, & baseboards. Tah-Dah! What do you think of the colors choices?

  3. Thanks guys!

    That was the wonder patch job that Ellen did with the tiles that came down. We went to Lowe's to buy some replacements but they do not make them any more. (THANK THE HEAVENS!!!)Ellen just patched it up & painted over, awesome. Pics of the mini on the way :)
