Rose Window – Faux Tin Ceiling Tile – 24 in x 24 in – #238

" We wanted the look of a tin ceiling, without the expense or extra work that tin would have been to install. We bought the adhesive you had listed on your site-Instant Grab Contractor Pack - Water Based Adhesive #310-and glued the ceiling tiles directly to the ceiling. The thing that took us the longest was doing the math. We figured out that if we used trim boards in between some of the tiles we could get by without cutting any of the tiles. We used a laser level and chalk line to help the process go smoothly."
Tips: Figure out the center of your ceiling before starting on the project. Figure out the area of the project, and then decide how you want to arrange the tiles. Decide whether you want to use trim boards, as we ultimately did, to avoid having to cut the tiles. I would also recommend that you paint the edges of the ceiling with black paint before starting to glue up the tiles, so you don't have to go back later and hide a previously white ceiling where it might peek through at the edges of your project.
