Fast forward two years later, it's tiiiiiiimmmme to get this party started! I've always loved exposed beam ceilings. They give a rustic feel to an open space and just scream COZY to me. Exposed beam ceilings go perfectly with our farmhouse-y type home, of which you will soon see for yourself. I'm happy to say that construction started this week and here is where we are {yay}!
Our hope is to have it done for my son's first birthday party in April. I've accepted the fact that it probably won't be painted by then, and the space will not be decorated to my liking. But, a roof over our heads is all we need. I've drawn inspiration from these beautiful spaces and really can't wait to get started.
This is similar to the ceiling we'll end up with, but I think we may paint it white. I am obsessed with with the hanging lights, they give off the best ambience. I also really love the Chicago brick floors in this space. Our house came with Chicago brick inside (yes, you read correctly) so it might be nice to extend it into the porch area. I think it's time for Handy Andy to start building me a table like this one too.
I've thought about painting the beams the color of the house like in this space. I think it would add a nice contrast to the white ceiling. Too bad we can't use fireplaces in Miami or I might just add one. So gorgeous.
Decorating is really the best part and I can't wait to start picking out flooring, paint colors and furniture.
