The house where I was growing up had wooden beamed ceilings so these wouldn’t really work. They’re ideal for houses with white drywall ceilings where they’ll blend in perfectly during the day, and also because houses with drywall ceilings have smooth continuous surfaces to apply them to.
The beams in that house weren’t painted, they were just bare wood (maybe stained). They might have stuck to them still but it probably would’ve looked ugly and been very noticeable since it was also darkened with age.
The bigger issue isn’t just if they’ll stick to the beams but if they’ll look at all good when they do. I’m betting they’d look really ugly stuck to those old darkened wood beams.

We applied these to painted wooden planks. You just need enough surface area for them to stick to and you’re golden

ah, yeah maybe not
We put these on those awful popcorn ceilings.
