Painting The Ceiling, Northern Colorado Painting Company

To give your room an airy feel paint the ceiling white or paint it 2 to 3 shades lighter than what you paint the walls.  The contrast between wall color and ceiling color has a softening affect.  In a smaller room, such as a bathroom you can even paint the ceiling the same color as the walls to make it look bigger as long as it’s not painted a dark color.  A darker color will make a small room seem smaller.
