[ beam me up ]

THERE'S SOMETHING about beamed ceilings that make a space seem so special. The ceilings are high and the beams give the room such character - wouldn't it be great to own a home with beams someday?

I could not agree more! I LOVE beamed ceilings, they do add such character to a space, and despite the nature of whatever room they are in, they have a way of bringing the space down to earth!

I love the look myself, they add a feel of nature as well as architectural detail to any home

Beams give such a sense of height and space - just beautiful. (although at the risk of putting a downer on things, I have often wondered how people with beamed ceilings keep them clean and free of cobwebs?!)

As long as I don't have to dust them, I'd love to have beamed ceilings.

Second from top looks like an old church - do you think it was? I love beams too, though I'm with M.M.E. Don't want to dust them ;)

I want to live in every. single. one. of these rooms. I'm sending this to my fiance and praying for a miracle. We're thinking about building a house and I'm pretty sure he'll love this look too!
