A detail I can't seem to get off my mind lately, is exposed beams in the ceiling. Maybe its because I dream of having soaring ceiling heights, but in reality I live w/ only 8ft. If I were willing, and by "I", I mean my husband and I; we could tear out the boring ceiling and give our home a lot more interest and breathing space. I'm not holding my breath for the collective "I" to make that decision, but I really do love this idea!
