How would I paint a room with rounded ceiling corners?




My husband and I recently purchased a home with plaster walls in the living room that have rounded ceiling corners. We're stumped as to how to paint this room. Do we have to choose one color to paint the walls and ceiling or is there a way to add crown molding to create a separation? Not sure what to do as we've been informed that plaster walls are very expensive to repair and we're afraid of damaging the plaster. Please help!

We have a similar problem, with rounded outer corners on a tray ceiling. The painter took extra care (and time) using painters tape and a level. Time consuming but very worth it. Good luck
Hi Cell, get a large paint brush, and paint to where the wall curves, and continue, until you reach the side. The rest can be finished with a roller and blue tape for paintng and a tarp
We're new in our neighborhood, so I asked around for a good painter. Finally hired one to do the master bedr. It's large, about 24 x 24 with the tray ceiling. He did it for $600, which included 2 coats of paint, from Lowe's. It was worth every penny. We did the remainder of the painting in the smaller rooms ourselves.
