In reply to Teresa Kirkland. I painted before removing the ceiling tiles because I didn't want to open up the room to the attic space until absolutely necessary. The roof is insulated but the air up in that space is a bit warmer and it's where bugs have gone to die and spiders have weaved their webs, undisturbed.

Omg…can’t wait to see what you do to the kitchen. There’s so much that doesn’t make sense! Just wondering why you painted the “piano room” before taking down the drop ceiling? Good luck sweetness!

I’m not doing any major renovations in this house yet. I’m starting with this room. We’ll see how long I can live with the kitchen. I don’t want to get into that until I have the “whole house” plan (but getting around the crooked island when bringing anything into the house is a pain).

I’ll send the curtains and hardware (and light fixtures) to a donation center.

I am so glad you started on the piano room! The walls look so much better white. Are you going to raise the ceiling in that room at all? Maybe do another Box Beam Ceiling in there? The kitchen looks like it may be a big project with the weird tubing. That odd shaped island is a really perplexing design. Go you!

I hope you are donating the curtains.

In reply to Suzanne. If only I would have knocked it with a hammer months ago. LOL
