Video Discription |
These faux beams look amazing and I think we found the easiest and quickest way make and install DIY Box Beams! These ceiling beams do not require mitered edges, and we used standard sized boards, so there is no need to rip down any wood. We used 10' long boards and only had to take a 1/2 inch off each board for them to fit perfectly in our tray ceiling. Because our room is very long, we opted for chunky ceiling beams to better fill the scale of the room. We used 1x8x10 boards for the top and bottom, and 1x6x10 boards for the sides (our beams are wider than they are tall, but your don't have to be!).
If you decide to try this project for yourself, I want to see! Tag me on IG @AmandaFallonHomes in your project pictures =)

PRODUCTS USED:
- Common Boards : (8) 1x8x10 and (8) 1x6x10 to make (4) total beams.

- Drill: https://rstyle.me/+bkYVGrF4SPN2-cCI_6sCDQ
- Wood Filler for small drywall repair (I use Drydex) & touchup paint for walls: https://rstyle.me/+SCKvRpGVhG1i-6LWeIgLRQ
- Stainable Wood Filler (optional) to fill and stain behind trimhead screws: https://rstyle.me/+si4DoHmxDSb7g21N7QGJKw
- Sander to prep the boards that will be exposed: https://rstyle.me/+80odr1B8bdp1k9yAtdCsVw
- Wood Conditioner: https://rstyle.me/+0V8_uuwr89Fl4bSGNUk61g
- Wood Stain & Staining Pad (see my stain recipe below)
- Circular Saw, Miter Saw or some other method to cut your common board to the needed length (to fit the width of your room). We cut ours at home, but you can have Home Depot or Lowes cut your wood for you at the store -- you just need to know EXACTLY the length you need your wood cut to beforehand. I highly recommend our miter saw: https://rstyle.me/+4XHYoQzmDdz_-05pG3fEFw
KEEP IN MIND that the "common" dimensions for wood are not the same as the actual dimensions... for example, a 1"x6" is actually a 3/4"x 5.5". This is especially important to know when you are measuring and marking your room in order to have correct spacing between beams.
My STAIN RECIPE:
I love this mix because it matches my floors so well!
Step 1: Apply Varathane Wood Conditioner (https://rstyle.me/+0V8_uuwr89Fl4bSGNUk61g) generously, let dry.
Step 2: Apply Varathane Classic Gray Stain (https://rstyle.me/+9Ql412kb2AaHh4do0nIbCw), let dry.
Step 3: Apply Varathane Briarsmoke Stain (https://rstyle.me/+ngDY9sVyebX_wGkrr8RfAw), let dry.
I also used this stain mix on our DIY Sofa Table & DIY Large Rustic Coffee Table!
