When painting do u paint ceiling same color??

i am painting my daughters room in sky blue... will painting the ceiling make the room look bigger or smaller or do i keep the ceiling white??When painting do u paint ceiling same color??
painting the ceiling the same as the walls will make it look smaller.





However, if you leave the skirting around the ceiling a light colour it will make it look bigger.





Sort of like a picture rail makes walls look tallerWhen painting do u paint ceiling same color??
That is a good Question!! When painting any room you need to identify what you want to get out of the change.. painting the walls changes the mood of the room. Sky blue is a great bedroom color by the way.. having the ceiling White allows the room to maximize the light in the room. while having the ceiling the same color, although it dose darken the room to reflect the color, reinforces the mood the color brings.. both ways are good....... note: all one color is easier :)
Keep it white.
I think you should keep it white, it reflects light better than colored ceiling. Also your ceiling will look crisp and clean against the nice sky blue.
Most people keep ceilings light (white or cream) but if you want to paint it the same, it will ';cacoon'; the room. If that is the look you are going for, it's fine. Whatever you decide, if you don't like it you can change it.
What ever you prefer. Really doesn't matter.





Probably would keep it white and add light blue clouds, then add a touch of white with a dry brush. That should thrill you, with more work.





Other wise, keep the ceiling white. All blue would be to much blue.





Have fun painting .......
