What are faux wood beams? A simple explanation is this is a hollow box, assembled from wood planks and used in the home decor to mimic solid wood. Three planks are nailed together and can be covered with different stain finish or painted in any color so that they resemble solid wood beam. These beams are also known as decorative beams or false beams and are very popular because of the lightweight, the easy installation and the beautiful look.
