How do I atttach the rattan panels to the popcorn ceiling securely?
I am turning master bedroom into British Colonial style and purchased rattan panels to put up over popcorn ceiling then wood strips to outline/cover empty areas. I have a pitched ceiling and need something fast. See photo to look to achieve.

I think the easiest thing to do is use the wood strips to hold the rattan in place over the seams. Otherwise, you could use a staple gun and then use the trim wood to cover the staples.
I agree. I would use a staple gun to hole the rattan in place and cover it with thin strips of stained wood. Stain before installing.
I agree as well.
Please advise how you would hold up a 4x8' piece and staple or attach wood strips by yourself? I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I am having trouble seeing how I would do this. Clear glue? tacky glue? temp tacky something?
handling anything 4x8 by yourself would be a challenge. My only thought would be to use a couple or several wood boards or pvc pipes cut to proper length to be used vertically to hold up one end while you work on the other end???
