Remember the flood a few weeks ago that caused our horribly ugly kitchen ceiling tiles to become stained? Well it turned out to be somewhat of a blessing in disguise for us.
Derek and I were never really fond of having tiles for a ceiling and it felt like we were thrown back to 1972. All we needed was some shag carpets and for Derek to grow out a mullet and we would have fit right in.
As of last Thursday evening, we now have new, thicker molding, patched and painted walls (where the holes were cut out), a smoothed and painted ceiling and two can lights instead of the old 1953 kitchen sink light! We are definitely super excited for our new kitchen ceiling, but honestly I am LOVING cooking more now that I have 150 watts of light as opposed to 60!
Here are some before, during and after pics. You can see the old light over the sink and yep, that's me painting the new molding away! The bottom right picture is the final flat ceiling with the fixture back up!
