How to Install Swag Hooks to Hang Plants from the Ceiling (without a Stud Finder)

[@ciarazabolotney3998]

I love seeing when people don't know what they're really doing but make it work - makes me feel more confident in trying things for the first time! props! love the vibe too!

[@AARONCOHICK]

Me too. Its the best way for each of us to learn right!! & sometimes doing it that way you discover better ways that are yet to be done by someone else. I mean really that’s what made youtube huge. People Recording themselves doing things in a unconventional, so called unprofessional way. Just learning, discovering & sharing! Im so ordering these hooks on Amazon. Because last 4 years in my new Apartment. Ive used the Black Long like porch screws meant to go into a beam I think. Well I have a popcorn ceiling! & I have like 50 huge plants. Like my female Spider Plants huge. & 2 times middle night it dropped out the ceiling. & its huge. Its like carring 2 cinder blocks!lol I mean in recent years average people everyday people are building their own houses, repairing their own plumbing, building their own privacy fencing, fencing in Their own backyard. you get videos of indigenous kids, teens of Pakistani, India, Japan, Freakin Building amazing in grown swimming Pools. Using Grown clay, Mudd, & fabulous fort out in the middle of the woods, swamps, I mean some of those videos of these kids, teens truly put Our American kids to shame. Anyway I hope these will work great. i love that people care enough to upload this kinda content, stuff like this really does help us who seek out our own answers. To do it right ourselves the first time, & not having to rely on someone elses time or having fork out extra money! Like some things like electrical I will leave to the professionals! But I did wire in my own smart ecobee furnace thermometer the other day! Using youtube. I dont have a C wire in this old house! But i do now. Lol 😂 So keep uploading youtubers, because eventually I will need you & i will find you. Lol 😂

[@anaivh0128]

For the swag hook 😂

[@EpicDIZ]

This is the most entertaining "how to screw something into the wall" video I have ever watched haha. Thanks for the info!

[@Shelby_Erilyn]

Lol i know right 😂😂 how did she not get this video taken down because of the music in the background is what I’m trying to figure out?? but more power to her lol 😂

[@addiepence601]

When I heard the song begin, instant like lol. I love the way you explained this. I just got my first power drill and feel like a bad ass with all my projects lol

[@ritatocta8551]

loving the 40s vibe in your hair ❤️

[@HamsterLife_EnglishLearning]

Good idea would be to first tell people to turn the house electricity off to the whole house before drilling near a light fixture in the ceiling.

[@novahittingthegroundrunnin9933]

[@Psychopomp16]

I've watched a LOT of DIY home stuff as I navigate my basement renos and this video has, thus far, been the most informative, helpful (way to problem solve, girl, and SHARE your journey) and concise video I've seen. Thank you!!

[@DutchVai]

Very informative...... and I'll say that that is the best lamp hanging dress I've ever seen. 🙏

[@PipesByA_Rebel]

Thank you thank you thank you! I was definitely intimidated buying this kit from Lowe’s! I got mine installed after only watching 2 minutes of your video! Woot! 😀

[@BrigetteMuller]

Yesss! So happy to hear it.

[@myrasays]

Girl I felt like an absolute idiot. I had scenario number 3 in my situation as well. Thank you for helping me feel less insecure about my ability with this f0ckery.

[@alsaxon]

First of all the intro, the hair, the makeup the decor! Love!!!

[@squidracerX]

Im glad you showed the fluke - take the "L" that would be exactly what Id do! :)

[@solecorrea6789]

loved the unexpected ending haha

[@csn583]

Pro tip: if you own a magnet, you own a stud finder. Find the hidden drywall screws and you've found the studs.

[@DIGdogs853]

Great tip! Like this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/e2q3Z4abjZenqKs

[@funlss]

I love you

[@didarden]

Helpful. Thanks

[@singinprofessor5260]

A joist?

[@DannyGlasspool]

This is hilarious hahaha some useful info in there with some hilariously failed attempts makes for a much more entertaining how-to video. Thanks! :)

[@burginny]

I really wanted to like this twice - great video! Can’t wait to start hanging my plants this weekend!!!

[@ryanfondawray]

Do you happen to have the specifications for the long wood screw that you needed but didn't come with the hook set? I have the exact same problem, but my local hardware shop didn't have anything, and not sure what to order online that has threading on one end but long enough to reach the wood in my ceiling.

[@cynthiarangel4095]

That music though.. it surprised and threw me off. I just can't!! lol hahhaaahhahahaaahhaaaahhaa

[@BadIntent]

This was so incredibly helpful. I used it to set up my green screen today, thanks!

[@melasiachibs]

This video is great and you are excellent. I'm giving this a shot this weekend!

[@taimatsuko]

Thank you so much for the video!!! Gave me the confidence to hang my baskets and they look wonderful!!!!

[@BrigetteMuller]

Yay!! I'm glad!

[@yaroslawzuarich1054]

I love this. Thank you! Hadn’t heard this song in so long. Your hair is so cute, sis!!! 💗🤗

[@BrigetteMuller]

Hahaha, thank youuu!!!

[@ayabc9287]

Thank you 😊 I used a $5 stud finder in my apartment popcorn ceiling and used to hook and the short screw and screwed it into the wood. Perfection 😊

[@UntitledFriend]

I'm 100000% listening to this music while I put up all these hooks 😍

[@michaelafowler6425]

I love your personality, thank you for the tips!!

[@TranTheClever]

Awesome DIY....one question I have . ...I am thinking of making this for my books? Rope bookshelf sort off ....Will it handle a good amount of weight? 5:49

[@JoseAntonioPelayo]

Hi Tran, I'm no expert, there are hundreds out there, but I do most if not all of my own home repairs and add-ons. if you can find the ceiling joist, preferably its center, you should be able to hang fairly heavy objects from them. If you are somewhat familiar with construction, the joist are the beams of wood that run horizontally across your ceiling holding the ceiling panels (drywall, plasterboard, etc) and roof in place; they along with the wall studs (usually 2x4 wood beams that run vertically from floor to ceiling) form the initial "framing" of any structure. You can do a search on ceiling joist and wall studs to get more information on this. You can use a stud finder to find either a wall stud or ceiling joist and if you have a textured ceiling as we do, you can use a piece of cardboard, place it on the ceiling and then run the stud finder over that, there are videos on youtube on how to use these as well. Hope this was helpful and good luck.

[@AmazingArnoldVoice]

So cute when you sit that way

[@mayac2266]

Should I worry about electrical wire in the ceiling? Or they hiding in the wall and not ceiling? I really don’t know

[@llewodcm20]

If you have ceiling lights, yes. Even if you don't, yes. You don't know what's behind the wall or where you're drilling, so turn off the power at the breaker box before drilling into spaces you can't see.

[@Chanelly93]

Is there an alternative method to screw these hooks in without a drill? Command hooks are simply not strong enough for outdoor use and I don’t have a lot of money to be buying a drill.

[@taylorbikowskitaylorfaefem8800]

Thanks for making instructions so easy and fun - had major issues finding good help :)

[@cathleenmutnick6857]

Well explained. Now I want a drill! 😄

[@dinomite078]

Omg it was a failure , but you made it fun - great personality. Curious to see your other videos lol

[@jesssicaaalynn]

You have my same personality and I feel warm and welcome

[@karaoke_shower]

Pleaaase make a video where you show all your plants !! :) Thanks for your advices, it put a lot of light into my hanging plant situation haha

[@parsonsmark]

I would gain access to the attic or space above where you drilled and see what was up there and if you drilled into something. It's most likely a stud of some kind. You can see if you can move the hole over a bit as well once you see what's in the attic.

[@Det_313]

Learning this and seeing a woman confident enough to free the nipple and press record have been the highlight of my day.

[@zakmian7123]

So clear compared to other videos thank you

[@themixedracekid]

This is really helpful and straight to the point. Thanks for being honest in your experiences.

[@jkadkin]

Woohoo AWESOME tutorial, thank you!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@thybowllingman2752]

Loving the aesthetics

[@thybowllingman2752]

You got swaagg

[@julienicole92]

Ahhhh loved the video! Very informative and so funny! You have a great personality :)

[@aniepat]

This was really helpful. I ran into the third scenario and I had no idea what to do

[@kristinmulloney3992]

Thanks for the help! Just hung my first ceiling plant successfully! A beautiful Tornado cactus

[@BrigetteMuller]

Yay!! I'm glad it was helpful ✨

[@frostflower5555]

I don't understand why the super long screws are never included with the swag hook kit. Doesn't make sense.

[@dottieerickson6395]

To make money--also, that is seldom needed. Loved her video!

[@laurelrodriguez5693]

How long were the longest screws for the swag hook? I have the 3rd type of ceiling where I want to hang the hooks.

[@MissJenni5309]

OMG I love u!! Lol you are just like me! Lol Thanks for the best video for this!

[@KD-wz8tp]

Your energy is just adorable!🥰 New subscriber!

[@freeiran4885]

Thank for the fun and informative video 😊.

[@faithbelleg7465]

What did you do about the hole you made near the light?!

[@jazzyhampton8732]

OMG! You are adorable. I totally feel you on the projects I've been doing minor repairs in my home -- figuring it out as I go (of course I search the internet). My theory is I will give it a try and if it doesnt workout or come out the way i want it too or think it should be visually. I call my boyfriend or brother and say I don't know what happened please fix this??? Good job on making it work and founding a positive solution. Girl power rules. ✌🎉🤣

[@jesslynch371]

you are hilarious, and i love your aesthetic!!! thanks for the vid :)

[@blahookala]

You’re HILARIOUS omg thank you plant mom

[@brunadavid6385]

Do you by any chance know how to uninstall the swag hooks with “wings”?

[@brothersofthebackrow]

Bruna David you dont

[@WigManPhil]

As soon as you said " the most difficult one to install... " I knew immediately, without description this would , of course, apply to me. I don't remember ever doing any diy that was standard. I didn't know they made screws like this and I was super frustrated about these hooks. Is there a specific name for that screw deal?

[@danquilty6580]

Toggle bolts. I havent used them before , but remember a scene from 'The Hammer', romcon about a boxing carpenter,YOU DONT HANG A HEAVY BAG WITH TOGGLE BOLTS!!! Good movie

[@pablorodriguezsanchez8690]

This was so funny lmao I loved this video

[@missjessicax]

Independent woman 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@kylo_sten]

This is so helpful and easy to learn. Thank you!

[@TheMisfitPond]

This video is awesome. You’re awesome.

[@kallewarn]

HAHA! What a legend. Respect for taking the L :D

[@natacharlene]

What kind of method did you use to hang the pendent light? Did you have to use the toggle bolt? Thanks

[@anilgargsfo]

Couple of inches of drywall? Where do you find such a drywall?

[@NYCeesFinest]

I love plants.

[@amberapreston3280]

And your whole Vibe 💗

[@gingarhthibs]

Doing this today! Got my tools all ready

[@deborahm7121]

Thank you so much for this video,!!!

[@cherylanne6549]

So timely! I was just in the hardware store yesterday working with the guy on this. My son told me I needed those toggle bolts but I ended up with some really ugly hooks. I may order those cute ones from Amazon. Thanks for the help. I'm just worried about ending up with holes all over my bedroom ceiling!

[@Ashley-sz4ok]

Omg yay these are exact hooks I have

[@amberapreston3280]

The hair I love!!

[@soyfeea]

Thank you for this !!

[@budgieyy]

That larger screw is actually called a hanger bolt. A hanger bolt is flat on one end.

[@LemonadeLaura]

Thanks, girl!

[@jgarvin6]

Thanks made this so easy for me🙂

[@GROUNDWAVES]

Came for the advice - stayed for the Soulja Boy.

[@neftalicabrera9086]

Thank you!! Totally saved me! You made it look so easy🤗

[@donjohnson7556]

Perfect woman! Funny, smart and a great personality!!!!

[@saraledbetter9984]

Thanks! You’re legit a lifesaver!

[@stephaniebrady153]

This was super helpful! Feeling inspired :)

[@anoukstg]

I wanna do this in my apartment but is there a way to fill the hole up after I take it all out? I don't think my landlord would be happy with a hole in the ceiling lmao

[@BrigetteMuller]

There are definitely ways to do it! I've never tried, though. Personally I just left all the hooks in the ceiling when I moved out, and my landlord was cool with it. 🙃

[@adamorr8445]

How much weight does this hold?

[@imabeacop]

Had to watch twice, second time I actually paid attention. First time I was watching perfect lighting on thin black shirt.

[@ximenamm1]

Did it!!! Thanks

[@monikashingari9720]

Is it perfect for fall ceiling as well

[@wheretheresawillcomputerse4459]

Very helpful vid thanks! Is this the chic from Dirty Dancing? " No body puts her (baby) in the corner? " lol

[@EbonyGirlSpeaks]

Great tips!!!

[@tonykartracer8032]

Chick's got swag......... hook.

[@terriking6409]

Will s small scerw work for wood ceiling

[@70SYB]

What is name of the plant?

[@valisali7389]

I am learning as well...I use a cobra hook from lowes....was confused at first but turned out perfect.

[@joshuajohnson3296]

Can you show me how to fix my faucet and toilet next?

[@didarden]

Loose the background noise ( music) so annoying and distracting. Helpful. Thank you

[@Kavita_826]

But then what happened to the hole you made in your kitchen ceiling? I personally love hanging plants but my husband refuses to put holes in walls and ceilings! 😩 He wont even allow shelves 😡😥

[@ms.sullivan4098]

Kavita Man when I did mine, I wet some tissue and filled the space with it. By the time I screwed the hook in the hole was hidden

[@nj7068]
