This post from Lauren at Bless’er House is the post I pinned, and also what I used as inspiration for our bathroom countertops.

And yet I know, this hopelessness–this believing that nothing will ever get…
We purchased the Connector house in the fall of 2017 and sold it in the fall of 2018. It was our sixth home remodel. All of the textured ceilings in the house were sanded down, re-mudded and sanded again. Then, of course multiple coats of fresh paint.
