DESIGN IDEA: LOOK UP – CEILING STYLE!

October 5, 2011
  • Share
Living room with white moulded ceiling, a dark brown couch, patterned area rug, a brick armchair and a dark wood coffee table

If you are thinking of adding a touch of panache to a room, why not look up? A ceiling is a great place to add a hint of delicate style and design. Decorative molding, ceiling medallions and more. I like. Not too much though…just a bit to finesse a space.

Living room with white moulded ceiling, a crystal ceiling medallion, a dark brown couch, patterned area rug, a dueling brick armchairs, a dark wood coffee table, a molded fireplace with two white armchairs next to it
Dining room with moulded ceiling, a large chandelier, a long wood table surrounded by chairs white white cushions and a wood floor
Black living room with white ceiling moulding, dark wood floors, arched windows, a green sofa, a simple fireplace and a modern sea grass chair

What do you think of this design idea? Yay or nay? What do your ceilings look like?

Happy Wednesday!

    I love ceiling treatments, be they mouldings, plaster,paint or wallpaper. It IS the fifth wall, after all! Nothing more boring than plain old white ceilings, which is, unfortunatly, MY living room ceiling. I live in a bungalow that, previous to my buying it, had all the character rehabbed right out of it! It has been my curse/blessing to bring that back. But I still can’t decide how to do that yet. Inspiration will come eventually, so keep posting these!

    I am in love with ornate ceiling treatments. If I did not have 3+ levels in my neck fused, I would decorate every ceiling in my house! I threw my neck out doing a faux treatment on my dining room ceiling, but it was well worth the pain!!!

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
