Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos kzread.infoUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!

All your labor-saving tricks are giving off serious big brain energy. I especially liked when you drove the screws partway into the supports before lifting them up to the ceiling and clamped all the boards together before staining the edges.

You definitely have a knack for creativity Melissa! Awesome work and may Jesus Christ bless you and your precious family!

You cracked me up hauling lumber in your Pontiac Vibe! I drove one for over ten years and hauled EVERYTHING in it. I loved that little car. You are inspiring!

Had one too! Loved it, if they still made them, I’d still own one, if they still partnered with Toyota!

Your natural engineering skills are amazing. Your beams look great and accent the room. Nice job.

Excellent video production -> fast enough to get key points across, no annoying audio or dead-spots or weak points of discussion. Beam construction + tips now look easy :) Thx.

Thank you so much for your video. I shared it with my daughter who is also a woodworker but mostly in furniture but she’s trying to figure out a way to make her living room different and I think she would enjoy this one. Thank you again. Great job.

Your room turned out beautifully! We did this for a much larger living room dining room combination. I have to say that our liquid nails and every other kind of Liquid adhesion material we used did not work! Nothing would hold that beat board up there for any length of time. We ended up purchasing a. Sheet rock lift to keep the pieces up while we did the nailing. I joke that it saved my marriage!! It is very difficult working with heavy stuff over your head as you probably know. I will include some pictures. Thanks again for your video. I love the way my ceiling looks and we get tons of compliments! And we never would have thought to do it without you video.😁

Your work is AMAZING! What a difference!!

You did an awesome job, I'm about to cut my sheetrock to install can lights and will probably cover it with this method, it's old popcorn ceilings with beams already there. Glad to see a lady doing this kind of work

Hey, Mellissa. Great work. My wife was talking about doing something like this to our popcorn ceiling. Thanks for posting.

Fantastic! Great way to add visual appeal to the ceiling.

You are like an intuitive engineer. So cool. Bravo!

I Love your channel. For being self taught you do an amazing job. I was just thinking about doing this to my living room a few months ago but I got sidetracked with a different remodel but I'll get back to it. Keep up the great work.

Great job Melissa. If you pre drill those holes for your jig, the 1x2 wouldn’t start to crack, also next time slid a piece of that 1/8 inch plywood under your 2x4 jack. Save you scratching your floor. Fine job overall.

THOSE BEAMS LOOK GREAT WITH THAT CEILING !!!!

I love the sound of your voice. It's very soothing.

This is such a cool idea and you did a great job! Only just today had the mind blowing realization that one could decorate their ceilings. Love it.

Such a good idea to cover those popcorn ceilings 😯

Using the 2X4 flame you made, aka a"dead man" was a good trick to push the low areas up. I would not have thought to use one of those for that. Looks really good. Thanks for sharing this,

Damaging the drywall on its way up and the damage to the floor, not everyone should be putting out instructional videos. Just saying.

Simply... beautiful and creative!

Thank you. We bought a house with popcorn ceilings. We removed the popcorn from a couple of rooms but it just looks horrible because I couldn't smooth out the ceiling very well. I think we're going to do this to all rooms.

Beautiful work.

This turn out amazing 🤩 great job 👏

Great job! A word of warning, be careful nailing through your ceiling since you have no idea if there are any wires just laying above it.

Awesome!

You are AMAZING and inspiring!!!

Looks great 👍🏻

I’m in Australia and I’ve done a lot of research around and removing popcorn ceilings covering it up with this material is the cheapest healthiest alternative to getting rid of popcorn ceilings it’s A genius idea good for you honey🎉

Looks great!

Impressive! Nicely done!

You are amazing! I am so impressed with your DYI improvements!

Looks great! Very clever

great video! Thank you for being so specific and showing your steps.

Killed it. Good job

Looks amazing. A small automotive floor jack is an easy way to press stuff like that into the ceiling before screwing.

This is a great idea and I’m diffently gonna be doing this..Thank you for this great detailed video

Great job girl!

Wonderfullllll!!!!

The Pontiac Vibe/Toyota Matrix was a pretty good car! I had one from 2007 to 2014

Wonderful nice job👌

Great job. I’ll build you some saw horses. I was hurting watching you lol.

Awesome Job!

Really pretty ❤

One of the thoughts I had that I did not see addressed in the comments was with wedging the beam up to conform to the ceiling. I feel if you are putting flex into the beam to attach it to the support, then that flex will carry through to the support and work to loosen it from the drywall and beam above or perhaps promote cracking the support and faux beam..

This came out really nice

So far every video I've watched I've learned some cool tips and tricks. This girl is smaaart!

I admire you. Job well done!

Nice! Good stuff.

beautiful job!

Great job..very nicely done..Thanks for sharing

Hey thanks for the new video Melissa, a subscriber from the United Kingdom.

Very impressive!!!!

outstanding!! now i want to do this to my kitchen

It looks great---you're a good measurer! :-)

that looks awesome!

This "popcorn" ceiling finish is in most cases a sprayed-on finish which contains asbestos. Asbestos was widely and commonly used as part of ceiling finish, especially on older homes. Some people hire a licensed asbestos abatement crew to drape furnishings and remove it in a careful manner. Some spray a coating of white or off-white paint to seal the ceiling. Covering the ceiling with faux beams/thin slats will also work.

Do you know when the use of asbestos stopped?

We had something similar in my chidhood home. We made the decorative beams and then beat them with a heavy chain across their entire length before staining which gave them a distressed look.

You are truly ambitious and have mad talent!

Very very cool.

Great job!

Very impressive!

We use faux beams in our luxury custom homes as well!

Really great video and super awesome ideas.

Dang, well done!

Impressive!!!!!

When you have to use a support to raise the one end of the beam into place, a simple car jack works wonders. The jack from your car would work. A floor jack works even better or a bottle jack. That is the way I do this . Ya did well no matter what. Ya got the beam into place. One other tip, instead of direct wood to wood contact, on the floor, use a thin flexible cutting sheet for veggies, this keeps the floor from being marred by the wood .

U are awesome!! Blessings to u for 2021. Ty for this idea!

Love it.

great ideas in this video, thanks for sharing!
