Diy Coffered Ceiling Beams

Of course the coffered ceiling looks much nicer with the new chandelier updating light fixtures was one of the ways we updated this space.

Diy coffered ceiling beams.

A faux beam is just a long wooden box that will receive the finish wood cladding and trim. Install the other main beam the same way. So while this diy coffered ceiling isn t quite a beginner project it is doable if you have about medium diying skills. Scribe and cut the main beams the same way you did for the perimeter crossbeams in steps 6 and 7.

The entire coffered ceiling is only a series of faux fake beams hence the framing aspect is very straight forward and relatively fast. Then apply adhesive to a beam and pressure fit it in place using your deadman to hold one end. Use shims to make the joints flush as needed nailing through them and into the ceiling at every joist.
