The sheetrock was hung, taped, and textured, and we were ready to start working on different parts of the house. We are really starting to see changes. How exciting! All of the rooms were sheetrocked except for the living room. These walls are covered with car siding wood, which has been painted. The ceiling in the living room is the focal point. It has a very high vaulted ceiling in the old part and the new addition. We decided it would be pretty cool to have a stained wood ceiling. We wanted to have wide planks for the ceiling--about the same width as a dock plank (10 inches). Unfortunately the stain we picked out looked best on birch wood, which is not cheap. For everyone who knows Michael, you know he will get the nicest thing at the cheapest price, so we had to get creative to get the ceiling we wanted. So, what did we do? We bought birch plywood and had Brian & Jason cut it into 10in. wide pieces. It looks great and was much more affordable. You can't tell it is plywood at all.
