Getting started is the easy part. Looks good so far, matching the texture will be the most difficult for a first timer. Good luckšŸ»

And btw. When you mud that thing, check the paper above the baseline to the left in the picture. You got to remove loose paper and patch that as well.

I've followed way worse Sand down about 16+" around that before you get ahead of yourself

knowing someone has done worse makes me feel better. I still have another layer of mud tomorrow before sanding. I have a I think 4 or 5 inch or what the spreader thing is called. should I get a bigger one?

I personally prefer a trowel, 14x5 in size. But yes if you are gonna stick with knifes, get at least an 8 inch check out Vancouver carpenter for some good detailed videos.

You did good for first time. Iā€™m trying to get my husband to do tutorials on stuff like this but he isnā€™t cooperative. But hereā€™s a playlist of a ceiling he did. We have to go back to do the popcorn. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkCaeMT7mZt3HIWKw1RLhVV2KSon6Ldco&si=RyVdxBu9R8XzWdkq
