DIY Distressed Faux Beams Ceiling Transformation

- This vaulted ceiling is huge and deserves a moment in my living room design. I constructed complicated faux wood beams to hang from the ceiling and bring it to life!

Looks fantastic! Very well done Melissa! The beams do look original and they match nicely. Those beams with that long slightly warpy lumber came together very nicely, that's not an easy task!
You knocked this one outta the park, Melissa!!!
That was an amazing job. Thanks for taking us along with this journey. The beams look great and highlight the room. Can't wait to see the finished room.

Damn, that is clever and way to go.
You made a two person job into one.
Clever girl!
Best tutorial ever. Thank you from Italy.
The beams look amazing. So worth all the work you put in. they look so realistic.
Melissa! you are absolutely right! Wow! Wow! Wow!! the beams look fabulous! Might I add, you swing a pretty mean chain😊
Truly impressive! I have done similar using a full length cleat but your intuitive method (especially for ceiling on a truss) is clearly better, can leverage job site scrap and they LOOK REAL! Kudos
Thank you! I felt it was a good idea
Melissa, it looks great!!! You did an excellent job and you and your husband should be very proud of your accomplishments.
Wow the best fake beam job I've ever seen on RUclips! Really well done and thank you for sharing!
Honestly your absolutely blow me away with work! Outstanding job with something most of us wouldn't dream of tackling. Your attention to detail and finished product amazing!
WELL DONE! Truly spectacular results! BRAVO!
Great stuff Melissa ! You’re a Jill of all trades!
Thank you. We are renovating a really cool home in Tennessee that has these large high ceilings and we are sourcing faux beams. When looking at your video, I believe we may create our own like you did. Thank you for this extraordinary lesson.
This was the most helpful video I’ve seen on wooden beams, thank you for posting!
Looks great! I am so impressed how you fearlessly attack projects even when you have not had prior experience with some of the tasks.
Looks amazing. I can tell how proud you are of the results, it's a great feeling when something turns out better than you expected!
The work you do without asking for help is impressive. Very talented and gifted👏🏻
Lot looks so good!
This is so awesome! I want to do this! My late grandfather’s house, that he built, has these and I would absolutely love to have them in my home.
This looks stunning. So grateful that you took the time to create this video to inspire us to embark on a very similar project!
You make complex tasks look easy but we all know they are not easy. Outstanding job.!!!
Girl!!! You are such an inspiration! They look fabulous! 🎉
This looks amazing! I do have to agree that you should continue the beams into the area on the top of the stairs. That would definitely add to the look. 👍
The beams look great! Great job! Your cleat hangers are absolutely strong enough.
Stellar job!!! A pro couldn't have done a better job. Love it!
You ROCK, girl!! 👏 What an absolutely marvelous job you did. Such a major project. Kudos to you!!
Great Melissa. I've done projects with beams and projects with distressing wood. They never looked this good! That distressing is amazing!
Aww thank you
I will be adding beams to our master bedroom, I was just thinking it was going to be very challenging cutting the boards with the 45 angle and you gave me some great tips… thank you!
Wow, those beams came out looking really good.
This is amazing! Really the best I've seen. They, legit, look like antique timbers. Awesome job! I'm inspired.
What a project! You should be extremely proud! Inspiring me...
Wow! Truly awesome. I had been thinking about doing the very same thing for our ceiling downstairs, but after thinking about it some more, I decided not too. One reason was that I wasn’t so sure I could do it as at the time, I was more of a novice in home renovation. After watching your video, I see how it can be done. I might try to do it upstairs next year. This year, I have to finish the downstairs so that at least one floor in the house will be done. Good luck with your renovations. I’ll subscribe.
Wow! Great job 👏🏼
This technique is much better than others I’ve seen. Thanks for this tip.🤙🏼
You're right...wow. Nicely done!
Looks really nice.
I love the beams, Melissa! Good job!!
I love it! Great job!
I laughed so hard when you threw that bucket down in frustration. We all face those times. You made it real.
Wow… *one hour later* … Wow. It’s looks amazing! Great job omg
WOW! What an amzing job! You killed it.
Great job! Especially with cutting all of those angles!
You did a great job I seen that before someplace I always thought them beams were heavy and solid but now I know. Awesome work again. 👏
Beautiful transformation, congratulations on a great job!
Very impressed already! Great job Mrs. Woods!🤙🏾💯
I am so impressed and proud of you !!
absolutely perfect. you did a perfect job.
Absolutely gorgeous.
Absolutely amazing....for ANY woman, & by YOURSELF ??!! 😵
Incredible! I'd just love to stand there and watch and learn, even to build a shelf, hammer nails or paint. God bless.
Omg! While I thank you for walking us through all the steps you went through, can I pay you to come to Maryland & do this for me?!?! I LOVE what you did -- your creativity, thought process and how you tackled it! so gorgeous!!!
WOW! It looks Great! You do amazing work! Thank you for sharing!
I also said Wow!! You did an amazing job looks beautiful
What a beautiful stunning young lady and very intelligent may God continue to bless you .Bottom line
Great work again Mel!!
Well done!!
The beams look gorgeous 😍❤️🥰
I thought when first starting on this project with the idea of placing beams on the ceiling would make the room a lot
Smaller but I have to say it really brought character to the Lake house. A great idea a great look your ideas are awesome
Looks awesome! You did a great job!
great job, you made it look very easy
I don't say this very often.....if ever... but I have total beam envy!!!!! I have a boring short hallway with 11 foot ceiling that are SCREAMING for beams!!! Amazing job!!! You rocked it!! You must be just ....BEAMING!! lol Congrats!!
You blow me away! Beautiful!!
WTTW, Impressive!!!! Besides the counter you did a few years back, this might be your most complex project. The results are incredible.
I like your technique on the mounts you did with the laser level. That makes mire sense to me
Great job! Looks great. My only concern with your supports is that you ended up screwing into end grain. As I’m sure you know that is not the strongest part of the wood.
Very nice Lady!
THis is amazing! I'll be replaying this many times!
You did a great job what a success it looks wonderful
They look beautiful. Next time, take an ice pick and make little boring holes that mimic termites or other bug boring holes.
Ohh I love that idea, I will do that next time
A small drill at various angles works well to mimic worm 😂and termite damage
@@NoName-sj6bu Good idea. Thanks!
Love your videos very happy to see you wearing shoes
Gorgeous!!!
You never stop...
Great work, btw.
Looks incredible!!!
Omg. You are a rockstar!
AMAZING…you’re hired!! 😊
I learn so many tips from this channel, the beams look amazing but more importantly I feel less scared now about attacking my own ceiling which I have been procrastinating on for ages!
dayumm.. it look so real
BEAU TRAVAILLE TU EST UNE CHAMPIONNE
Looks amazing.
Looks great. I had a new vaulted ceiling installed in my sunroom and they put in beams. Mine are the fake Styrofoam variety but they still look very good for texture. Mine are also stained to resemble yours very closely in color. Beams add so much to a room in my opinion.
That is so cool looking well done!!!!!
Fantastic job
This was great. I much prefer these 'long format' videos, where you get to see and understand the process, compared to those tiktok-esk shorts
gorgeous!!!
HOLY BATMAN!!! FREAKIN" AMAZING!!
Wow best I have seen yet. great job 💐👍🏼🙏🏼
Nice work!
I love it!
Very well done.
Melissa (@WelcometotheWoodsBlog), this is THEE BEST VIDEO of faux beams I've seen yet on RUclips!!! And believe me, I've been looking for months for something that looked this good!! KUDOS!!!!!😀
Beautiful!!!
Hola, no entiendo casi nada lo que decís,jajaj entiendo poco English, pero me gusta ver tu trabajo y escuchar tu risa. Good job! Saludos desde Argentina
Amazing work! I have to admit, I would probably have suggested having the screw blocks turned 90 degrees so that you were attaching to side grain vs end grain, for fear of splitting the blocks. No other notes from me though, and I'm sure having the weight distributed across the fastening points means that even if one fails, the beams will still be secure. This is not an easy task, and you pulled it off perfectly!
Amazing! Love it!
Looks amazing....
Incredible!
Great job
Nailed it!!
Well done... As with any project, creativity is key to success, and you were successful. Something to consider when using a feather board is to ensure the workpiece does not back out from the saw. You want to flex the feather board a bit, not much, but a bit to get it started that way it won't move and will only allow the workpiece to go one way. In fact think of a feather board as a one way street hence the reason the feathers are angled to allow a bit of flex. Now, obviously, if you install the feather board too tight you will struggle getting the board in and that's bad for a completely different reason. A feather board is designed to eliminate, or at the very least reduce, kickback; if you don't know kickback is if the blade catches the board and violently forces it back into the direction of the person operating the saw. If you've ever seen a Ballista, or Scorpion from GOT, operate as it shoots an arrow imagine that arrow is the board that just kicked back from the sawblade.
For many years I used a similar saw for making my cuts on the jobsite and I learned early on there's no such thing as too solid a base for the saw to be secured to. The last thing you want is the saw to tip, for whatever reason, and material is lost. That cuts right into profits with the quickness. Something you could consider doing is using a 4x4 3/4" plywood base with 4 sets of screws to attach the saw to in each corner. The plywood would act as your large footprint to keep your saw secure. If you find it moving you can always weigh down the plywood with cinder blocks or other heavy things that should stay below the top of the table with ease and out of the way. The best way to run a table saw is when it's as secure as possible. Simply center the saw on the plywood, mark and drill the 4 corners, then from the bottom up, run carriage bolts with a washer/nut on top to secure the bolt to the plywood, then a second washer/nut to quickly secure the saw to the plywood. I said nut but feel free to use wing nuts if you have them for quick break down and set up.
Great project as always...
Another cool destressing detail is to lay a lag bolt on the wood then hit it with a hammer. Also use a torch in random areas before staining. That really helps it look old and worn. Nice job on these!
Wow is the best word for this work fantastic 🇮🇪😎👏
Melissa, this was a good, good and even good Job ! And the Corrections give an real Line to hold on fabricating Beams that good. The Texture of the Beams ist so amazing. IT is realy like in Germany we say Fachwerk. But Sweetie......the Spiders will Love the Beams 😉👍 From the Harz Mountains, kind regards , Rudi 👍
Really nice, good job...
