Another kitchen question: What to paint the ceiling?
Original post by Sonicstef
In my new kitchen, there is very little exposed wall surface. I mean, very little. But Im going to paint it a honey yellow color (probably).
My question is: Do I paint the ceiling that color too or do I paint it white?

Now, I did something different. I really don't care for white ceilings so in almost all my rooms whatever the wall color was I went a couple of shades lighter and painted the ceiling with that.....saw it on HGTV and I love it. It depends on the color how much lighter I went. I think that makes the room look bigger because it all is in the same shade.
.. thats what i was going to say!!!!!...a couple shades lighter

Luke would like to paint the whole thing BROWN! Um, no.
Stef, when I asked about trim, I mean the mouldings and trim of the room itself - not your cabinets. Do you have windowsills? Floor or crown mouldings? If you have crown mouldings and they are painted white, then you'd probably just paint the ceiling white, too. But, without any trim work in the rooms, then you really don't have much to dictate your limitations....why not paint it sky blue, and add in some soft, fluffy white clouds...then you'll really get an 'open' feeling!
Let us know what you decide!

No, no trim around the windows or ceiling mouldings. (there is now but its coming out). I dont know what the trim around the door will be.
My kitchen is not really formal so thats why im having trouble finding photos. Every kitchen in the magazines are 350 square feet...ahhahha
