Customize easy DIY wall panels with wallpaper and rope lighting to create a DIY hanging lighting solution to dress up ugly white apartment walls.
In this episode, you'll see how to build decorative floating wall panels using inexpensive materials from the hardware store. They can be customized to fit any style or look using anything from paint and stencils to wallpaper or fabric and even incorporate decorative wall lighting with the use of rope lights. Not only will these floating wall panels add architectural detail to plain white box rental apartments, they will also provide just the right amount of mood lighting in the evening. It's the perfect alternative to painting or using temporary wallpaper when you're renting: it takes less time to do and you can take the wall panels with you when you move out!

    I’ve been going nuts looking for wall light for rental space ideas. You are the best on line. You should have your own show and get paid big bucks. Everything you do is spot on and intelligently expressed. You know what you’re talking about. I know this, cause I know how too. Your ideas are the best out there. They are classy and not made from Dollar store bling. Thank the Lord for that. I would recommend you to any and all my friends since I physically can’t do it all an more. .. A woman CAN do it all and even do it competently. My compliments to you. I hope you are a great success at what you wish to do. God bless. 🤗🙏🏻❤️🇨🇦

    How does the dimmer switch work without showing wires? Is there some sort of remote control or something? Is your outlets right behind the pictures? I’m confused.

    I enjoyed watching this video! Would like to do something like this in my dinning room. The only thing I would of liked to see at the end of your video you left out. That was how you place your dimmer switch and cords so they look nice. That would of been helpful to see how you did it.

    Foam core, 3/4' panel insulation boards, and chloroplast are lighter weight, easy to cut on-site, can be painted, drilled, and glued a lot easier than brown board which while inexpensive and strong is really difficult to cut yourself unless you have a proper table saw setup. A handheld saw of any type will not cut brown board and your cuts will be crooked. Leftover foam from cutting down an 8' x 4' insulation panel will provide the frame in the back to raise it off the wall.
