Where did you get the curtains in that room...so cute?! Even though our house is newer we have the dreaded popcorn ceilings too. It would take me a million years to do the entire house. What was the mess like? Hi Nicole,

Even though our house is newer we have the dreaded popcorn ceilings too. It would take me a million years to do the entire house. What was the mess like?

It came off clean. Then I went back and retextured it with long strokes. Makes the house look so much cleaner. Good luck.

Getting the ceiling smooth afterward? That was the hard part. Diane, we're actually keeping the walls the same color they are now. I'm going to bring in pink with the bedding and curtains, and we're painting the dresser pink too. xin, we have <a href="http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p10566/index.cfm?pkey=call-chandeliers-pendants" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">this light</a> for the room.
