Back lighting or mood lighting in a room would work but for the best results be sure that you never have a direct light of sight of the LED's as they are quite bright. Instead it would be better for the light to reflect or cast off of surfaces to give it that nice glowing effect.

There's a modding section? and that's what I kinda was going to do make 1ftx1in chipboard screwing it to the molding at the top so it will be on the tiny shelf made so you can't see the led lights and put aluminum tape on the back side so it reflects like this video what do you think? and I'll hide the wires.

Yes something like that would work well, a quick and simple method would be to get some aluminum extrusion and mount the LED's onto that and to the wall itself for some extra lighting.
