Blue ceiling - a mistake or not?
I have just repainted my living room walls in F&B Blackened and the ceiling in Little Green "Moon Shadow" and I am now feeling slightly terrified! I love both colours separately but now not sure they work together all that well and I'm worried that the painted ceiling looks a bit student house.
I also need to deal with the fireplace as this jars with it and I'm stumped about what to do in terms of painting over the black and potentially hiding the tiles.
I was going to accessorise the room with the burnished colours from the lovely painting I have but I don't want to move ahead if it's non-starter. Am very close to chickening out and putting ceiling back to neutral as it's easier to work with and I don't want to waste time and money if it doesn't work.
Any tips would be great as I'm really not sure!
Many thanks in advance :)

Looks fab. Check out our new project with a dark midnight blue ceiling. Looks taller, adds drama, defines an area, and provides a calm weight to the room. We also enjoy that the evening experience of the space becomes expansive - almost open to the stars. Go on with strong solutions.

hace 7 añosHi Beverly. The paint colours work together imo and I wouldn't touch the fire. The only bit I'm not sure of (but just in one photo) is the underneath of the top step. I might try (just using painted paper stuck up) is to do the top step in blackened and then alternatively try the lower one in the blue. I'd go to a shop that has an easy refund process and just pick up a thin rug which is easy to carry and lots of cushions in different colours, without worrying too much about the style at this stage and try them out. I like the blues and greens with the hint of mustard/gold (plus some plants!) but you could also add hints of coral which would work

hace 7 añosIt's a brave choice and breaks the boring white we are so used to. I agree with the comment about the lamp. Also I can't tell room height from the pic so may have somr concern about it feeling oppressive. however fab idea I love it. you could perhaps try a light fixing like the one I've attached it will give off some interesting patterns against the blue

hace 7 añosI like it; I did the coving between the picture rail and ceiling in mustard yellow. Everyone thought I was mad when I suggested it but it looks good
