What is the last thing you see as you lay down in bed that you also see first thing in the morning when you wake up? Yup, your ceiling. So why waste your time keeping it boring and plain when it could potentially make or break your day?

Whether we admit it or not, when designing our room (or the entire house in general), we often neglect to show love to the ceiling and keep it straight and boring. 

Thankfully, video-sharing platform TikTok offer tons of ideas for this to happen. 

Why should you paint your ceiling?

Aside from giving your room a relaxed vibe, painting your ceiling with bold colors or patterns makes a small space looks larger. It creates an illusion that the top seems higher than usual. 

Painted ceilings also elevate the room's overall interior design as it changes the mood of the space. You can also incorporate your style o the ceiling that will reflect your personality, be it bold, quirky, lively, or moody. 

"We consider ceilings the 5th wall," says designer Miranda Cullen from Duet Design Group. 

"From accent paints to a fabulous wallcovering or an insane light fixture we use the ceiling as the 'cherry on top' of a thoughtful room design," she added.

Painted Ceiling Ideas

If you're eyeing for your next DIY home makeover, we suggest that aside from revamping the decors, you should start by painting your ceilings. Below are some ideas to boost your confidence to ditch your usual bare ceilings. 

Go for bold colors

No rule states that every ceiling should be painted in color white. Be adventurous enough and go for bold colors like black, red, or green. 

Instead of thinking about which wall to serve as your room's accent wall, why not make it an accent ceiling and paint it with your favorite color. Pair the bold roof with neutral-colored wallpapers to soften or balance the entire room. 

If you're too scared to paint the entire ceiling with bold colors, you can start by adding to something close to it, like an HVAC duct, curtain rod, or overhead cabinets turning the room's eyesore into an instant style statement. 

Color Blocking

If you're adventurous enough, why not do a color blocking scheme and mix color combination that will turn the room alive. Mix the color blocking with patterned curtains, pillowcases, or bedding to make the room extra appealing. 

Break the Rules

Break the rules and go for contrasting painted ceiling design. Instead of painting the ceiling with only one color, why not try creating patterns like stripes, geometric patterns, or even abstract painting.

Create a Scenery

Play with your imagination and unleash your inner Picasso by painting the ceiling with sceneries or murals. This style is perfect for children's bedrooms as you can paint the ceiling with clouds, stars, galaxy, or any out of this world theme.
