Ceiling Treatments

Using ceiling designs will help to bring the room decor together.


As you're decorating and customizing the rooms in your home, you can add some accents to your ceiling as well. Ceiling treatments help bring the entire room decor theme together, and adding artwork or construction accents to the ceiling gives the space a more elegant feel.


Size


The size of the room will dictate how large or small your ceiling treatment should be. If you're adorning the ceiling of a small room, ceiling treatments such as metallic trim in the corner of the ceiling or a wallpaper border will make the room appear more open even when you're looking up. If you've got more space to work with, an elaborate design in the center of the ceiling makes for a pleasant decorative surprise that celebrates the open space of the room.


Significance


It's a good idea to add ceiling decorations to the room that are especially significant to the space. For instance, if you've decorated your room with a flower theme, you may want to have an artist paint an elaborate bouquet on the ceiling to make the theme consistent. If you're adorning your child's new room, glow-in-the-dark stickers or paint spelling out your child's name or mimicking a starry sky are ideal.


Considerations


Construction can also play a part in ceiling treatments. If you don't want to paint the ceiling, you can always add a ceiling medallion made of plaster or wood that fits the color and design theme of the room. A mosaic can also adorn the ceiling to create textured artwork for your ceiling.
