How Do You Create A Bed Canopy Without Posts?
Here’s how to create a bed canopy to give the illusion of a “four post” look. This method can use long lengths of inexpensive fabric material. • Make a small hole in the ceiling above the bed and a few inches out from each corner of the bed. This will allow the material to hang clear of the mattress. The holes should be large enough to hold a wall anchor securely. • Use a hammer and tap a wall anchor into each hole, and then screw a hook into each anchor without over-tightening. • Hang curtain rings on each hook. • Starting with the first ring, knot the fabric to the ring using one piece of material (length), then drape across to the other ring and knot. • Using one short piece of material, knot the fabric to the ring and drape across (width) to the other ring and knot. • Repeat for the last two rings. Using the vertical pieces of materials. Knot to each ring and allow to fall to floor creating a pool effect.
