I then needed to determine if I was able to screw then 2×4’s to ceiling joists. One I was able to the others I was not. The frame of my house is an A frame so I am able to access my attic easily to add Necessary bracing.
so I went up into my attic and added some supports.
If you are not able to access above your ceiling, you can use proper weight rated drywall anchors as well.
I basically made a box around my light figure. I also could have removed the light prior but just installed it and did not want to remove and reinstall. So I worked around it.

when this was all dry, I painted it with primer and white paint.
