I wallpapered my ceiling 😮

There was an error rendering this rich post.

… and it completely changed the feel of my tiny guest bedroom! I just had to share because I love it so much

Here's the before:

Has anyone else wallpapered their ceiling? I'd love to see how it turned out (and commiserate about the neck pain from install 😂)

I didn't try it

It turned out great. I’m up for painting the ceiling a different colour, but my skills would not lend itself to wallpapering a ceiling! Major kudos!

Thanks for the kind words! It definitely took a bit of trial and error in the beginning, but having patience helped 😅

I agree: the feeling of the room is totally changed, and for the better. I love it, but wonder what it's like as one is in bed, staring up at such a busy pattern. That would be my only concern………..how brave of you to have tackled this project!!!

Thank you so much! I tested it out lounging in the bed, and I found it really cozy and transportive (in a good way!). The room is so small. I think it needed a little something to draw the eye to 😊

ok Please confess that after that stellar job you got a 2-hour massage? My arms, shoulders and neck are aching after seeing that. Good job!

You are not wrong — my shoulders and neck were struggling after this 😖 I used my at-home neck massager after, but it might be time to cash up and turn to the pros haha

I like how the bed and the wallpaper are offset from each other. I wouldn’t have done the ceiling if not for that offset soffit, would have done the wall behind the bed. But that soffit and how it’s unbalanced definitely would have made a wall application quite weird. You did right by choosing the ceiling! Love it!

Yes exactly! The soffit bump out made the whole thing a little more complicated, but I think it turned out alright too! Thanks for saying that 🤗

Hi Daniela! I absolutely love this transformation! The wallpaper on the ceiling is such a bold and stunning choice it adds so much character and depth to the space. The green wall color ties everything together beautifully, creating a fresh and cozy vibe. Every detail in the décor complements the design so well, making the whole space feel both stylish and inviting. Amazing work!

This is so nice! Thank you so much! I love that the yellow from the wallpaper also ties in the yellow from my living room, which is right outside this bedroom 💛
