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.

- Wood Conditioner: rstyle.me/+0V8_uuwr89Fl4bSGNU...
- 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: rstyle.me/+4XHYoQzmDdz_-05pG3...
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 (rstyle.me/+0V8_uuwr89Fl4bSGNU...) generously, let dry.
Step 2: Apply Varathane Classic Gray Stain (rstyle.me/+9Ql412kb2AaHh4do0n..., let dry.
Step 3: Apply Varathane Briarsmoke Stain (rstyle.me/+ngDY9sVyebX_wGkrr8..., let dry.
I also used this stain mix on our DIY Sofa Table & DIY Large Rustic Coffee Table!

Looks great. If you have crawl space access you might be able to get a couple really solid anchor points either in joists or build an anchor point between joists with a board or two and a couple long bolts. I'm planning on doing this and I do have crawl space that allows me to get right behind the ceiling so I'm concocting some mount points up there but I like the L shaped mounts above the bed you guys used.

A helpful tip, if your going to put your beams together using a box end fit it may look better from the floor if you put a slight reveal on the side boards. That means if you have your two side of the beam hand down past the bottom board say 3/8 of an inch much like they do on cabinets

Great concept, but I have to say, you could have located the joists (ceiling "studs") and at least purposefully anchored the ceiling attachment boards - those beams still weigh a lot and simply hoping that the drywall screws will support them is not a good bet...but it looks good.

@@AmandaFallonHomes He's essentially correct, but that depends on ceiling joists being perpendicular to desired direction of the beams. If not, you MIGHT get lucky and have a beam fall under a joist just by chance. If not,, you could locate each joist (studfinder) and see if there's a spacing for the beams that will work visually, and allow at least a bit of each (or most) backer board(s) to be situated below a joist.

​@@garrettmcdowell8902 I use Wood Blocks inside , at spacing of 24" to hold all the joints tight. I am extremely careful when cutting the 45 degree edges. As a result, there is almost no need to fill the joints. I use a Marine Epoxy to glue the length of the Joints . Many Clamps help. . The Beams are Painted , not stained. That , to me, is more pleasing than stained wood above the head. Best Wishes Garrett .

Nice video thanks for sharing. I would like to share my own tweaks that I would add to it that I think simplify things a little. Instead of screws on the finished beam use nails. Common board is light to begin with and using 18 gauge will be suffcient nailing every 16" or so and wont be visible, especially using a stain. For supports use 1x2 on both sides and chaulk lines to keep the inside consistent to bottom of inside dimension of beam nailing criss cross and add some PL adhesive to give it extra strength. This elminates trying to find studs altogether. If hanging it by yourself which is possible use a ledger board from floor to under beam and prop up on one side working your way down nailing along the way. Hope this helps you DIYers.

Why show the side seams. Run your wood through your table saw with a 45 on the edges. Glue screw and the round the edges a little with some sand paper. If you want something seamless. I also have a chain I whip my boards with. Gives a great distressed look.

Looks good. However far from a professional job when it comes to how it was put together, how to attach beams to joists or use anchors and most importantly you don't want to just drive screws into the ceiling without knowing what's above. Looks good but certainly not the way to do it.

lol my husband just laughed out loud at this. My concept, my design, my measurements, my marks, my cuts, my sanding, my custom stain mix, my staining, and my husband will be the first to tell you he just helped me hold the boards and screw in the screws. I’m glad you stumbled upon my tutorial and I hope it is helpful to you. Would love to see your tutorial when it’s ready.

All that work and you didn’t miter the joints of the bottom of sides of the beam. What a waste and who would “not know” if you are attaching that to the ceiling joist. I hope you did or someone will have a bad day at some point in the future when that falls on their head

Looks horrible. Looks like boards nailed together to make a really long box. Doesn't look like a beam at all.

@@paulinesmith9723 Saving someone from using such poor carpentry methods was my thought. I did think before I spoke. This creator should have done some research before putting up such a bad example of finish carpentry. If someone did that level of carpentry in my home I would be very disappointed. If she was paid to do that work in your home you would feel the same way.

Hope you have climate control. Because jamming those beans in like that without room for expansion is a recipe for disaster when that wood expands due to humidity variations
