What color carpet and what I’m doing with the ceiling?
What color carpet and what I’m doing with the ceiling?
I bought a couple of sheets of honey brown paneling for a room 20ft x 18 ft. It looks pretty retro and 70 years, although its new brand. Anyway, now that I’m dark cranberry carpet that needs replacing and a stucco ceiling, which is uneven with many imperfections, because the wet drywall hanging and mudding. What color rug do I need and what I do with my blanket to do? The thing would be easy to hide my popcorn ceiling paint to defects, but I do not know how to find it with wood paneling. I thought of a few bamboo rods to a limit, but it would be too expensive for a place that I will not be used for a few years. I think a 70s-style retro-shag carpet maybe so? If not, how bout black carpet answer

If you only go around there for a couple of years I would like to avoid shag carpet. The first thing potential buyers will think, is that they have to replace the carpet (unless you the rare buyer who has 70 retro.Comme to find the ceiling, I have the same problem in my house. What I did was drywall compound and a damp sponge used and made kind of swirling marks. They overlap each other as arches and form. you hide many flaws in the ceiling that way.
Maybe you should stain the concrete a black color. Antique it or find different shades you like. Don’t play into the espensive treatments for concrete, research and find a cheap way to go. I wouldn’t do black carpet, maybe black staned antique concrete. The ceiling hmmmmmmm the popcorn thing is very very out of style. I don’t know how hard this would be but…………. maybe you could paint your walls whatever color just say green then you would paint the celing a lighter shade green but before you do floors, before you paint…………. Get some type of texture ( forget what it’s called) You can buy a mix and mix it with water what is it called? Dirt cheap…….. Oh blonde moment hold on……… You use it to make the same thing as that popcorn stuff………. However, just dab it on in spot with a spatula kind of making it look like cake icing on the wall DONT COVER THE HOLE CELING WITH IT They also use this in Mexican restaurans and it is a mediterranean look. STUCCO is that it? Whatever get that. Do your ceiling and it would look great. Then paint it a lighter green then your walls. Then maybe do one accent wall with stucco and paint one wall black or chocolate brown or something after the texture dries. That would look great. You don’t have to do an accent wall color though. I just think it would look nice. Remember stucco and paint the celing before anything else because you will drip paint on your craberry carpet that you will replace. OH I AM NOT GOING TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AFTER I HAVE DRANK MARGARITAS EVER AGAIN. U ARE NOT PAINTING THE WALLS NEVER MIND……..
