DIY Faux Wood Beams (Rental Friendly) | Home Made Happy - Ep. 6

Hiya Friends! My excitement for this episode of Home Made Happy is on another level... and as you watch, you'll know why! DIY Wooden Ceiling Beams, but make them renter friendly, easy, approachable... and not even wood at all (but they look like it). This is seriously a dream come true - something I never thought would be possible in an apartment, let alone a rental! In this video I also make the most stunning ceramic coasters using my Cricut machine that fit perfectly in my bedroom (and on my nightstands that I made a few episodes ago). I'm so happy about this episode of Home Made Happy... and that is what this series is all about. With love... - Dalia

You’re so lucky your husband helps and supports you with these DIY projects. My husband just sits down watching me struggle doing DIY and cleaning which has began to really really start annoying me a lot. Seeing your husband be so willing to help you get the house together makes me realize this is something I didn’t even realize I was missing that’s apart of my love language. Also this is soo creative I definitely want to try this out

I’ve been waiting for about a year for someone to come up with a diy for faux wood beams!! You’re a genius my friend!!🙌🏾🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼🌸🌼

[AGirlCalledLevi]

This is freaking amazing!

*A faster way to get the wood grain look could be to use the realistic wood grain contact paper (similar to the marble contact paper you used in your last apartment) over the boxes, instead of paint. This could help avoid gaps as well.

WOWWWW the creativity is just…. I can’t!!!

I love to see a fellow ADHDer follow their passion and embrace their hyperfocus and problem solving out of the box thinking (this time with actual boxes :D). It is very empowering to watch. Thank you!

Just when I thought i've already seen your best DIY creations... 🤯 Dalia girl you never cease to amaze me. You really are amazing and one of a kind because you just keep getting better and better. Excited for your next projects! Always looking forward to new episodes of this home made happy series ✨🌟

This is absolutely the DIY cheat that I needed to see! My daughter has real wood beams in her place and ever since I saw them I wanted some in my house but I just figured it couldn't be. I have no problem and no shame cheating! I don't want to have to buy giant heavy real beams and then deal with installing them...I'm perfectly happy with this kind that I know is not going to fall on my head and kill me! It's just the look that I like, and this is what I'm going to do. I did not know you could buy those kind of boxes! So you have helped me a great deal...and with your other videos as well. I'll be watching more!

It’s 2023 and I still use my cricut explore air 2. Cannot afford to upgrade to everyone there is or everyone that comes out. Frugal as I am I don’t feel a need to even if I can afford it. You did an amazing job darling. Thanks for sharing . Have a safe and blessed weekend

[bbangric]

still mindblown bc she keeps doing these diys that are so good

[MicheleWalkerWebb]

Dalia... I'm so impressed. The way you thought out the entire process. Boxes, to gel, to command strips, to the small brackets. 👏👏Should you leave, don't use chalking for nail holes. Try a warm white crayon. Put pressure over hole. It melts inside. Not much to sand upside down. (I rent.. a lot nail holes) Bravo to you⚘ on your amazing project. Your smile of joy is priceless.

[amberfrazier]

You can buy a rocking stamp at the hardware store that creates a Perfect wood grain! You use it with stain over paint! It’s amazing!

[marlaclark]

Just found you and what a jewell you are! 1st video I've seen and after reading some of the comments, so looking forward to seeing what other "tricks you have up your sleeves". Wish we were neighbors, you are just precious to watch! Signed, this 59 & 3/4 year old fan
