Default Keep that popcorn ceiling & make it look lovely

I had years of flat painted popcorn ceilings that got dirty and were
impossible to clean or even dust without it dropping all over the floors.
When I bought a home built in the 60's - I had new popcorn installed in
the large kitchen when the cabinets were removed. Then ALL the ceilings
in the house were double coated with excellent white semi-gloss latex
---wash it to your hearts content if you so choose... sweep it, vacuum it
and it never comes down on you or the furniture. It also takes a new coat
of paint very quickly.

The last few years I've chosen to paint the ceiling the same color as the
walls (except the red one). Change is good! Experiment - it's just paint
!
