project is complete
these lights are so nice, this feels like daylight, its completely around the perimeter of the room.
the lights are sk6812 ws2814 rgbw lights from btf
I have it set for the lights to turn on at 6am so I get what is essentially sunlight as soon as I wake up.

woops didnt see this reply sooner, i actually ran some thin white wiremold strips above the left side and where those wires going down are.
my parents actually want to do a similar project now too except maybe without the rgb, i think i may try to get them to do the crown molding that has led strip tracks in them instead because it would make all of the mounting easier.

still a little bummed that i had a bad chip that i had to cut the end of the led strip off that ended up making it just that foot or so shorter but oh well, its still 90% there

If it's only one bad chip you can cut that pixel off at the cut line and resolder/connect the remainder of the strip back at the end?

hmm I can't actually remember what I did now lol, but I do remember soldering and it being difficult even just while everything was loose, I'll keep that in mind though. can really solder very easily with it being mounted now.
