Bottoms Up!

I've been undecided about the ceiling finish for our little toilet room off the Master long enough.  This weekend I was moving leftover construction materials from the house to the garage storage area, and I found a full box of cork flooring under a bed.  Since cork flooring does not exactly come with instruction on mounting it to a ceiling, I also rummaged around and found some leftover wood flooring adhesive in a five gallon bucket. My only question was whether it would actually stick the cork planks to ceiling for 40 years or so.  

This photo was taken from the floor looking straight up at my little experiment to see if the adhesive will work.  The red pole is a handy-dandy tool that extends to the floor and keep the cork tile in place during curing.  Next weekend I'll try tugging at the test tiles and if I can't pull them off I'll glue the rest on the same way.  (And of course post a photo of the completed project)
