incredible!
@@doubledoc7807 thank you!
Just when I thought I would have a weekend to relax.... really great job.
Lol thank you!
Hahaha 😂 OMG, exactly what I was thinking 🤣
Ugh...& now me too
This is actually better than a cloud ceiling.
way more fucking work tho
Onnbro
i was just trynna decide between them
I agree with two Mach work
@@jorxy_5711 if you choose the cloud ceiling be careful of the dust
I've seen A LOT of these star ceiling videos on RUclips.
Your's is honestly the best one.
Like literally light-years ahead of anyone else.
There's nothing I like more then quality craftsmanship, fantastic job👍
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Agree we’ll done very professional all. God bless you my man!
Very cool, thanks! I like it in your media room, but I've actually wanted a ceiling like that in our bedroom for a long time. It'd be great for a kid's room too!
Ive been trying to get a idea for my my barbershop and office techroom and this has helped out tremendously. after installing floors for 10 days straight this looks like a easy one day job
Yea for sure. Took me about 3 hours
This is such a cool idea. I like how you used fabric so you could put speakers behind it. Also the LED light strip that goes around the edge adds another cool look to it. I wanted to put LED strips around my ceiling but never liked how they looked when you could see the LED’s. This way you just see the glow with the bonus of the fiber optic. This is definitely my favorite version of this. Very cool!
Thank you! Appreciate you watching!
Kedrick, this project is absolutely amazing! I love the idea of the hanging panel. The glowing accent lighting really compliments the stars. You've given me a great idea for my Man Cave. Thanks so much for this video!
Thank you! I appreciate that! Thx for watching!
Would you be able to share where you purchased the supplies for this.
@@geneshipley1027 check the description of the video
M’man! Super impressive! I guess I need to get to work, as I always wanted a star ceiling....they look BEAUTIFUL! To my eyes, the red outline with blue lights looks awesome...
This video ROCKS! I am doing a MAJOR dedicated home theater upgrade this year and now, I see the path to get a star ceiling that will not negatively impact my soon to be installed ATMOS speakers... Thank you Sir Kedrick for sharing! BC
Thank you! I appreciate you watching !
I absolutely love this!!! And this dude!!! This just proves that with alittle bit of hard work and ingenuity , us regular normal people can have a badass theater room!!!
Yes exactly! I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Looks great man , I can’t wait to build mine. I appreciate you breaking the process down
Thanks!!! For this video
No problem! Let me know if you have any questions during the process!
Hi Kedrick thank you for posting this video! I am excited about trying this for my grandkids room now. I never would have tried to create it if I had to use MDF so your use of fabric is next level!
You are so welcome
Now I know how to do my basement ceiling! Cheap and easy to access all those pipes on ceiling if needed! Great job 👏🏼
Thank you! I appreciate you watching
I was thinking the same for basement .. only thing with fabric might be difficult to keep clean so I would think it leaves the color white out unless you don’t mind the yellowing
great job bud! ive thought about this project for sometime, watched several videos that i didnt really care for the end result but yours is the best and most sensible way of accomplishing, thanks!
Thank you! I appreciate that! Yea I probably watched the same videos you did and thought to myself there has to be an easier way! Thanks for watching!
@@KedrickFoster Where can I get the fibre optic?
@@josiahchidawo8297 amazon. Link in the description
Genius, that's what you are a genius. I knew that it could be done but I didn't know how, thanks for the tutorial. I have been dreaming of something like this for almost 45 years and now I know how. Thanks again. 👏👏👏👏👏 Absolute genius !
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
So artistic and creative of you. The starlight ceiling really adds to the mood of watching the tv or listening to music. Nice work!
You forgot the say very cheap of me as well lol. Thanks I appreciate you watching!
Great work and instruction! Your video finally gave me the push to make one for my theater 😊
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed! Let me know if you have any questions during the process!
Really awesome work. That came out really professional and you saved a lot of money by doing it yourself.
Thank you!
Absolutely love it man. My brother in law and I are looking at how I can make that addition to my cave as well. We may be doing his space too
Awesome job, there was a theater in Chicago were I grew up that had a ceiling like that, now I can replicate it. Thank you sir
Thanks man! Thx for watching!
OH MY GOD!!!! I love it!!! I've been thinking to do this for a long time now! Thank you so much!!!
No problem! Thank you for watching!
looks great ...i just finished my man cave/theater room. i think im going to try this, thanks for the video
Thanks man! Let me know if you have any questions during the process! Thanks for watching and subbing!
Impressive! I wanted to do this years ago but didnt have access to ceiling throught attic. Never thought of doing it this way! Im sold!
Thank you! Yea that was my issue as well but it turned out pretty well! I'm sure some people will take this idea and improve on it!
you look so humble men cant leave without that subscription thax 4 the video
Thank you! Appreciate that!
This is so cool! I can't wait to own my own home so I can do this 🤩
Looks great! Just when I thought I was finished redecorating the basement...
Spoiler alert..you'll never be finished lol. Thank you and thanks for watching!
Just saw your great work .Love the idea man . Awesome. Thanks looks like something I feel I can add to my home . God Bless. Thanks
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Just installed my atmos so like you Kedrick I’m avoiding the mdf and going with the fabric as well and bypassing the drilling too. Great video man. Alot of work but well worth it damnit. Your cool demeanor just earned you another subscriber.
Thx man I appreciate that! Thx for watching and good look on your project. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@KedrickFoster Kedrick in the list of links you put to amazon, I noticed black felt listed but I can’t tell in the video where it was used on the project.
@@lennymarinez yeah that was something I added after I recorded. It's optional. It's to minimize the light bleeding thru the fabric
That's awesome. Always wanted one and was too lazy to look around. This encouraged me a lot.
Thank you! Go for it, you'll love it
This looks really nice and you showed how to do it. Great job. Thanks!
Thank you!!
The format of the video is really good. I feel like there isn't a whole lot of fluff, it just gets straight to the point. Such simple easy to find components, and using the frame with the hooks was 🧠big brain time 🧠
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
This is what I needed .. straight to the point 👉🏾 👈🏾.. well done 👏🏾 it's time ⏲
Thank you! I appreciate that. Thx for watching!
They are perfect than my other regular starlight headliner which they don’t twinkle but having both would be super great.
Can't explain how off the chain that is!!! Sweet!!!!
Thank you! Thx for watching!
Awesome job, that was a true labour of love, looks fantastic, well done.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
thats so friggen rad, I love the ability to use 2 different colors/controllers, def paid off. great work.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
You did a beautiful job. It came out really good!
Thank you! Thx for watching!
That's Awesome. I'd be watching the roof and not the film. Love the way you shared your build with everyone. Somebody is interested in doing this in there theatre and now I know what is involved. Many Thanks!
Thank you! I find myself staring up there too lol! Thanks for watching!
Looks great and not to difficult. Thanks for the video as I might look into this. Keep it up!
Thank you. Thx for watching
You have a very relaxing voice, I don't know if you know what ASMR is but you'd be good at it. And nice ceiling lights.
I've seen it but don't know much about it lol. I should look into that! Thx for watching!
This is some great work! Looks incredible.
Thanks man I appreciate that! Thanks for watching!
Rolls Royce Ceiling got illuminated angles! this is sick!
Thank you! Thx for watching
Bro why are u everywhereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
That looks amazing. I would tape a few of the fibre's together to make bright stars to make a recognizable constellation.
Thx! That's a cool idea
Turned out alot better than I thought it was going to good job man!
Lol damn , you had no faith in me lol. Thx man . Thank for watching
I personally went with an rgb storm cloud ceiling and im loving how it looks.
I am going to be moving though (taking all that fluff and staples off the ceiling is going to suck btw..) and im going to have 2 separate rooms, one for sleeping and one for gaming. I'm thinking I might have to give the star ceiling a shot in my sleep space and then I'll redo my cloud in my gaming space. Should be a fun new project 👍
Nice! Those cloud ceilings are pretty cool!
@@KedrickFoster yep the only reason I haven't attempted a star ceiling was because I figured the fiber optic lights would wind up being rather pricy but seems that's not the case, so I'll definitely be giving that a shot.
@@brradv3552 yup not expensive at all! Good luck with your project! Let me know if you have any questions
Who needs sleep when there's videos like this on youtube 🤷🏾♂️.
🤣🤣🤣thx for watching!!
This was an excellent install. I want to use this idea in my home studio. I’ll definitely share this with my contractor . Thank you
Thank you! Appreciate you watching!!
Looks awesome! I was looking to do this same project. Thanks for taking out all the guess work!
No problem, appreciate you watching!
Amazing job, you gave me some ideas, thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Thx for watching!
Captain, we are currently orbiting a La-Z-Boy recliner in an uncharted star system.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
whoa. that's amazing! I'm super inspired now. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you! I appreciate you watching!
Dude....that looks SICK. Well done. Bravo! 👏 👏
Thanks man , I appreciate that! Thx for watching!
Hey, thank you for sharing this and your hard work. The payoff looks like it was well worth it. I'd love to have something like that in our bedroom.
Thank you and thx for watching!
Love you already! Very informative and I like how you took the time to explain everything thoroughly. Did you have to do multiple takes? It’s impossible for me to not have to! Anyway, amazing video! I’ll look for the stuff. Did you get the stuff on Amazon with the exception of the plywood?
Thx man , I appreciate that! And yea I ordered everything on amazon.
Sweet! You have some awesome posters in there too. Good adapting the rig to size. Bet it looks great up close and lit up.
thank you! thx for watching!
Great video. I was designing mine and did not consider fabric. It changes everything. Thanks. I’ve subscribed.
Thanks for the sub!
People who bought a Rolls Royce for the star ceiling: 👁👄👁
🤣🤣
I don't know why RUclips recommended this, but I'm glad they did. That was cool. I'll build stuff all day.. I'm out on the fiber optic bazillion cables though
Lol yeah I was almost out on them cables too! Well thx for sticking around and watching!
From Australia 🇦🇺 I thank you and Salute you. My weekend is going to be this project
Nice !! I would love to see the finished project!
Loved the idea of using fabric. Thanks for sharing your idea. 👍
No problem! Thanks for watching!
Well done bud that looks amazing! I just started my own channel and have just started my own home cinema build. Although my videos are like an hour long and most would find them pretty boring I think. . At the end I will be doing a massive 24 square meter star ceiling. Can't wait to get to that stage. Videos like these keep me so inspired. I've subscribed!
Thx man ! Good luck wit your channel and your theater. I'm going to check out your channel! Thx for watching!
fyi, u might want to show ur subs how u installed it to the ceiling
Thx!
Awesome job!! I want to do this in the worst way now. Thanks for the great video and ideas!!
Thanks man, I appreciate that! Thx for watching!
WOW. I never thought of using black fabric
Nice job Dude, looks awesome! Perhaps I’ll have a Cinema room one of these days. Definitely use your idea if I do.
Thanks man, I appreciate that! Thx for watching!
Nice build! I'm thinking about doing something similar. I was reading a forum where a guy used fabric and he sprayed some fire retardant stuff on the fabric so it wouldn't go up in flames if they get to hot.
Thx man! Yea these don't get hot at all. Thx for watching!
That’s the sickest thing I have ever seen.
Much respect from Holland my brother 🇳🇱
Thx bro I appreciate that! Thx for watching!
I have a vaulted media gamer room. I wanted a TRON led lighting effect so this is perfect, brother! Thanks for sharing!
Yea thats gonna look good!! Thanks for watching!
That's awesome and looks great! Nice video! Guess my theater isn't done yet, dang it.
😂😂😂😂 but your almost done lol
Hey Kedrick Nice Build Brother!! This is exactly what I am in the process of doing. The only difference is I cant Mount anything to the ceiling because I am renting a house. So I have decided to build a PVC frame all the way around my game room. And I am going to put black fabric all over the walls and ceiling. I'm glad I ran across your video cuz now I purchased the same star kit that you posted in your description. Thanks man I appreciate it. Also I wasn't sure what kind of fabric to get from the fabric store but I believe I'm just going to order the black sheets that you have in your description 👍🏻. Looks like tedious time to put all those fiber optic cables in LOL. Why did you cut it a quarter inch from the material and not any closer? I subscribed and headed over to check out more of your content. Great editing as well!! 😉
Thanks man I appreciate that! That's sounds like I cool idea! Post a video when your done! I would love to see it! You could cut closer but cutting it a quarter inch just makes the stars seem slightly larger.
Okay that's good to know, think I will do the same 😉.
I have taken pictures as I am putting together the pvc but not a video. Hopefully the outcome turns out half as nice as yours did and I would be happy. Lol looking forward to more of your content!
Omg I am in love. Now my project is on. That is beautiful thank you for the inspiration alll the way from the UK.
Thank you! Thx for watching!
@@KedrickFoster No thank you for that. I have a massive project to do and my daughter wanted something just like that.💯❤️
@@missgambiaa nice ! Good luck with your project! Let me know if you have any questions!
@@KedrickFoster yes I will do. I'm nervous but going to give it a go. Thank you so much.
Absolutely stunning
Thank you!
Love how simple this design is--any problems with fabric sagging over time?
Thank you. Nope , fabric has been holding up well so far
Amazing work Sir, when cutting the fiber optic cables is there a particular reason why you cut then quarter inch hanging down from the fabric instead of flashed to the fabric?, I'm definitely building one of this, thank you for the inspiration.
It just makes the stars look bigger. You could cut it flush but then you would have to hot glue each strand to prevent it from coming out of the hole. Thankd for watching!
Oh my goodness!!!
Sooo beautiful!
Amazing artistry my Brother!
Thank you! Thx for watching!
@@KedrickFoster You are most welcome dear!
Have a blessed day!
@@cherokeedream1313 thank you! You do the same
Stayed for the cool ceiling, subscribed! Wish I was this handy !
Thanks , I appreciate you watching!!
Kedrick this is awesome...and i love that you proved it to be manageable. 1 question....and it may be dumb, but did you have to pre-cut the holes in the sheet? Or were you able to just force/pop the cables through the fabric? Looks great!
Thanks man I appreciate it! And yes I just pressed them thru the fabric, no pre cutting.
That was a really cool project Kendrick! The stars are really stellar........anyway. Never seen that. I've interned with some studio and observed a few panel builds with led but I've noticed that wiring is usually a pain. With it being very noticeable or hard not to plug into along with audio hardware. I'd love to make this idea with acoustic panels but the fiber optic cable running through the ceiling light. Quickly went over my head. Is it possible to make a lighter and duplicable construction(s) for this? Say for a diy treatment of acoustic panels with fabric, Owens 703, and the fiber optic? I'd love to incorporate this project to my portable/home studio apartment or something down the line when hopefully running my own studio build. Congrats on a successful build man, it's gorgeous and striking. StarStruck!
You absolutely could do that. It would probably just take a little extra time sticking the fiber optic the the acoustic foam but it's definitely doable
Nice job dog I was looking for an idea you nailed it. Great video
Thank you! Appreciate you watching!
La verdad que es untrabajo muy lindo, que seguramente voy a hacerlo ya que me encanto tu diseño. Abrazos desde Argentina. Gracias
Looks amazing!! Great job :) I noticed you listed felt fabric in the list of items you used, where and how did you use it?
Thank you! So after everything was done (after I recorded the video) I put a layer of felt over top of everything on the back side to stop light from bleeding thru. Took an extra 5 mins to do.
@@KedrickFoster can you explain? Are you saying you put a layer of felt to cover the strings of fiber optic on the back side?

Amazing work brother, in just 6 hours ,great work bro 😍😍😍 love it👍👍👍
Thank you! I appreciate that! Thx for watching
I’m just about to do my own star ceiling thanks for the vid! 👍🏻
No problem! Thx for watching!
Great job! You say trim to about a 1/4" is stubbed through! What stops them from backing out???
Just gravity, that's why I didn't cut them flush. I did go back and add hot glue to hold them in place
Subscribed because of this vid. How much back pain after all those cables 😂
Lol thx for the sub! It wasn't bad just time consuming!
Dude man I love doing DIY stuff and this is just freaking sick man, so cool , Nice job man!!!
Same here! Thanks man. Thanks for watching

Awesome work! I'm looking something like that for some part of our prayer room ceiling. But it won't be dark room. Question I have is if the optic fiber lights are visible in the day also? Are optic fiber lights visible with regular canned lights turned on at night? Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Yes you would be able to see them during the day with lights on. They won't seem as bright as they do with the lights off but you can definitely still see them.
Nice job Kedrick. Looks great thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Thx for watching!
this is amazing especially how much you spent compared to how much companies are charging for this. good stuff bro
I appreciate it bro
man this is dope af !!!
Thx bro!
Looks super clean!! Question, did you have to cover the main fiber optics that are on top with more fabric so it wont be too bright and clash with your LED strip?
Yes I put a layer of felt on top
DUDE! This was a really cool idea! Thank you for the video. I'm very impressed. GOD bless
Thank you! Appreciate you watching
I need to see this combined with the lighting clouds!
Yeah that would be cool
Love the idea of using fabric. Have you had any issues with expansion/contraction or loosening of the fabric over time?
Nope so far so good!
That is Really Dope ^_^
