While I am glad I am able, I completely sick of looking at stone. haha.

Digging them up for weeks can do that to a gal.

Can you blame me?

Not only did have no idea how many I would find but also felt like I won the rock lottery.

Not only have I been staring at this since we moved in in November, but I’ve been scheming how I going to tackle all this by myself.

eep!

I’m not anywhere near afraid of hard work, but this is going to… take.. a… while.

I’ve already felled the rotted cherry trees, but there is so much more to do.

That’s okay because I am rip roarin’ ready to dig in!

Now… you know I’m not one to back away from a chore, right?

Here are some of my past ceiling remodels:

• Family Room Ceiling – where I left the beams open
• Dining Room Ceiling – also where I left the beams open
• Master Bedroom Ceiling (featured by This Old House) where I created faux beams
• and many more

But this one is going to kick my fanny right proper and leave me ready for a break, me thinks.

However, I’m here to show you how to paint and open beam ceiling the easiest way possible.

Make the kids do it.

ha!

Just kidding.

No, really. There are different ways to go about this and after all my prep work I’m ready to go.

Let’s not wait another minute more and head below to see the painted ceiling!

HEAD HERE TO PAINTING THE FAMILY ROOM POST

In the meantime, if you’re signed up for my FREE newsletter, you saw I mention some changes coming to make the final transition from Prodigal Pieces to Livin’ Real with Larissa (LRL) full time.

This has been a long process made longer because… well… I moved from my home of 22 years and have been remodeling every bit of my new home.

With that, I’ve had to work on my site in the wee hours of the morning and late nights.

You will see ads being added to LRL (same as Prodigal Pieces) because this is my livelihood.

However, you will have the option to remove ads on LRL if you prefer that option.

So, stay tuned and be patient as my tech team and I make sure there are little, if any, glitches along the way. I want to make this a space we can keep it real and a family vibe.

Feel free to reach out via email if you have any questions.

Now take a minute to see my ceiling reveal!

I mean, what fun is that if my new home is already complete?

It’s only been SIX MONTHS since I’ve moved in.

Isn’t that crazy?! So much has happened in that short time that it blows my mind.

There isn’t one single room or even the exterior that hasn’t been Larissa-fied already.

heh, heh, heh.

Will I get to the finish line?

Lord willing, yes.

However, I am working outside in fair weather and inside in inclement weather. With that, I seem to have eye-twitching unfinished business all over the place.

But… it’s all for a reason. I’m rewiring things to make sense for future remodels and planning all along the way.

Now that my garage is build is completed, I breathe a huge sigh of relief on many fronts.
