Dear all;
My husband, who is an avid DIYer (and very active on here) is threatening to take down the somewhat flaky paint on our kitchen ceiling (please see photos), and skim over it. It is not that I do not want to fix this problem (of course I do, I spend most of my time IN the kitchen!) it is just that last time my vacuum cleaner blew up as the result of one of his projects, and it wasn't the only one to have met that fate! As such I am looking for a cleaner, more vacuum friendly solution!
I was wondering if either of these ideas might work:
a) Could I just glue the flaky bits back on, and then paint over them with a thickish ceiling paint?
or
b) Might I be able to just wallpaper over the ceiling with woodchip, or similar?
Of course, if you have any other alternative solutions I would be very pleased to hear!
best regards
The Mrs
