The white ceiling medallion adds style to the light fixure and it matches the room’s molding and furnishings. Tools and Materials:
ceiling medallion
caulk
spray paint
nail gun and pin nails
heavy-duty adhesive
Steps:
1. Paint your ceiling medallion with the white spray paint and allow it to dry completely.
2. Remove your existing light fixture and replace the cap if it is a different color.
3. Run several beads of heavy-duty adhesive on the back of the medallion and put the medallion in place. Shoot a few pin nails through the medallion to hold it in place while the adhesive dries.
