    Suggestion for anyone wanting to find columns: prom prop suppliers. I was looking for a column streetlight to use as a floor lamp because 80s mall aesthetic is my thing and those places have plenty of columns to choose from that aren’t too expensive.

    I always love your “cool idea roundup” vids. As I look up at my dingy white ceilings with cobwebs in the corners, it’s hard to imagine ceiling murals.😁 I love the idea, though. Thank you for drawing my attention to your grandmother’s book - it was a fascinating read, and an excellent reminder that war is horrible, no matter who is fighting, or over what.

    I put columns from floor to ceiling in my parents condo using large diameter sewer pipe, capitols and base coated them with gesso before painting them in a pink faux marble. I then used a high gloss polyurethane. I added several containers of sand to lessen the hollow sound if someone knocked on them. They totally fooled the builder when he came to finish some small things after my parents moved in. He did knock on them to see if they were real. He was blown away at the difference they made in the home.

      Baguette was very asleep and uninterested 😂 Yes, definitely mixing up the content in between real makeovers. I’ve had some family caretaking stuff which has taken over life in the last year, so it’s been a little hard to manage it all. But hoping to get more makeovers in the mix.

    I can't count how many times ive intended to do high drama ceilings ( having done few in the past) only to stop short because i awaken from my time blindness and dread the amount of work to not only detail a ceiling but the priming and painting again if i don't like the results 😹 my suggestion is to go for the dramatic ceiling first so you're energy to finish the room is not waning at this critical moment in decision making.😻
