Met with a painter today at the new storefront, and he didn’t think I was totally loopy for wanting to paint the ceiling dark blue, so here we go. The ceiling has a lot of pipes and ducts (mostly silver-toned, some copper), so it’s going to be fairly DRAMATIC.
I’ve spent a while waffling over shades, and while I do like the color I used for the Berwyn Shops ceiling, I decided to go back to the color I used on the writing shed — Benjamin Moore’s Downpour Blue.
Hopefully I won’t make my store look like a cave! If it does, I may have to just cover the whole ceiling with fairy lights…
Patrick’s painting Monday, so we’ll see very soon. Eep.
Also, painting ceilings that are covered in pipes is very not cheap. Eep eep.
If you happen to be a local who’s been planning to buy something from my shop for a holiday present, may I suggest getting that shopping out of the way early? 🙂
