Wallpaper on ceiling

6 years ago

Absolutely love the idea of doing this! However my ceiling has 2 ac vents. Would it look strange to wallpaper around the vents?

Not at all, especially if you paint them to match say the trim color in the room. In fact, depending on the type of vents you have you can even wallpaper the vents themselves.

That looks amazing! But as it is just a wallpaper there are a lot of flaws to having it on the ceiling. Instead, we would recommend our technology that is called stretch ceilings, it looks much better than a wall paper as it can be glossy or matte, depending on what you want, meanwhile the wallpaper can't. Plus you might say but what about that coll print that the wallpaper has? Not a problem at all, you can print any kind of image on a surface of our ceilings, literally ANYTHING you desire.

Also our ceilings have a number of technical features that other ceilings don't have such as being waterproof, not supporting the burning, not being able to break down during the earthquake, and many more. With all that we give you a life time warranty on our product!

So ask yourself again, is wallpaper on the ceiling really all that great?

HI FRANCIS, GORGEOUS WALLPAPER, HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF AN ENGINEERED WOOD OAK FLOOR? SAINSBURYS HOMEBASE HAVE A GORGEOUS LIGHT OAK ENGINEERED PARAWOOD FLOOR CURRENTLY AT HALF PRICE. ITS EXTREMELY HARDWEARING, ITS SO STRONG AND TOUGH, AND YOU CAN SEAL IT WITH EXTRA COASTS OF YACHT VARNSH TO PROTECT IT FOR YEARS TO COME. WE HAVE IT IN OUR HOME, IT LOOKS GREAT AND EVERYONE WHO VISITS COMPLIMENTS IT. I WOULD HAVE THE WALLPAPER AS A FEATURE WALL AND I WOULD PAINT THE OTHER THREE WALLS A STONE COLOUR LIKE THE PAPER. ITS SO STUNNING YOU ONLY REALLY NEED ONE WALL. OR THEY COULD GO ALL WHITE WITH WHITE FURNITURE TO LOOK QUITE MODERN OR COTTAGEY. LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF PATTERN IN THE ROOM TO LET THE WALLPAPER BE THE STAR OF THE ROOM. TICKING STRIPES WOULD ECHO THE LINES OF THE PAPER AND GIVE A FRENCH CONTINENTAL TWIST. YOU COULD KEEP THE ROOM TONAL IN ALL SOFT NEUTRAL PALETTE OR YOU COULD GO WILD WITH TEAL/DUCKEGG/TURQUOISE/PURPLE CURTAINS. IKEA HAS SOME GREAT WINDOW CURTAINS, IF YOU REALLY WANT TO COLOUR POP ORANGE IS A GREAT CHOICE WITH CHOCOLATE BROWN OR BLACK. I GUESS YOU HAVE TO DECIDE HOW YOU WANT THE ROOM TO FEEL OR THE LEVEL OF IMPACT YOU WANT IT TO HAVE. YOU CAN GET THE SAME DEPTH AND INTEREST IN A TONAL ROOM AS YOU CAN IN A CONTRASTING ONE. TRY SITTING IN YOUR ROOM, OR LYING DOWN ON THE FLOOR, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND TRY TO IMAGINE HOW YOU WANT YOUR ROOM TO LOOK AND FEEL. GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PROJECT, HOPE YOU GET LOTS OF GREAT IDEAS.

Hi Lindsey, How about a geometric style wallpaper? I'd suggest keeping the dado rail, wall below and skirting the same colour, and having the wallpaper above as you propose. A geometric design is contemporary and will add energy and life to the space. I'd suggest one of the following: Zoffany Spark paper GP & J Baker Langdale Trellis paper Farrow & Ball Tessella paper For the paint colour, Farrow & Ball have a great selection: Farrow & Ball paint colours I wouldn't have too much of a contrast between the paint and wallpaper colours, as the difference between a flat paint colour and geometric design should be enough of an impact. Hope that helps! PB

We got a plasterer to do it for us... We were informed that this was much easier than trying to remove the wallpaper. Then again they were only trying to peel/steam like you would with wallpaper on a wall. It does lower the ceiling slightly so if you have low ceilings, the room will look shorter and lessen in height. I'd give the idea proposed by MATH a go and see how it works for you....if it's easy enough I'd rather remove the wallpaper than re-board.

In my opinion you should be looking for a tile with a brown quality rather than a yellow quality. Try a beige or putty coloured tile against the wall paper to see what you think.

The wallpaper was a custom design that I had made for the client. But there are a lot of other chinoiserie papers that are similar in style.

We are loving the current wallpaper trend. There are some simply beautiful designs out there, and are being used in such creative ways. Loving the ceiling and how the ceiling light adds that extra touch of glamour, bringing everything together.
