    4. We drill small holes in the plasterboard, the diameter of which does not exceed 2.5 mm. About 70 holes should be located on one square meter.
    5. In each opening we insert optical fiber. It is recommended to use a different amount of material in the holes to create an unusual effect and overflow.
    6. Next, the frame must be bound with sheets of plasterboard, while leaving access to the projector.
    7. A small fiber bundle is connected to the projector. As a finishing touch on the ceiling, an acrylic paint is applied.

    Decoration using LEDs

    Stretch ceilings with LED-backlit sky have a number of features during installation. Before starting work, you should familiarize yourself with all possible nuances. Using in the design such a ceiling as a starry sky, whose price can reach several thousand rubles, consider that this method is one of the most expensive, but at the same time creates a pleasant atmosphere.

    This type of ceiling can be equipped with a plastic conductor bar, on which the LEDs are located. Also, the lighting elements can be placed on a transparent tape. Consider a simpler version using an LED strip.

    Sequence of actions when installing LEDs:

    1. We mark the ceiling and cut off the required amount of tape. It is important to know that the cuts are carried out only in specially designated places.
    2. Next, remove the protective layer from the tape and simply glue it to the surface of the ceiling. In this case, the ceiling must first be cleaned of all kinds of dirt or primed.
    3. Since the LED backlight is not capable of undergoing sharp bends, installation work is recommended to be carried out together with an assistant. When the tape is completely fixed on the ceiling, it remains to connect the equipment to the mains.

    In case if the backlight is not monophonic, but with several color options, then you will need to use the controller to select the type of illumination. And to adjust the brightness of the light, you can additionally install a dimmer. As a rule, tapes with LED elements are connected in series, but with small restrictions on the length( up to 12 meters).When purchasing this equipment, it is recommended to clarify the information on the limitations, since different types of LEDs have their own installation features.
