I love canopies. In an ideal world, I would have a four poster bed. However, I can’t afford one & I have sloped ceilings. So like all good decorating ideas, it’s just a matter of figuring out what I like, & how I can achieve that feeling in other ways. I think in this case I really like the canopies that go along with four poster beds, it makes the room feel much softer. This translates into something different depending on the style of your room.
- You can make a simple net canopy yourself. You can buy such canopies but they are rarely the right size or fabric & can be quite expensive. There are a number of ways & style of canopies that can be created using just some simple fabric.
- For a more modern look you can even just hang an entire wall of draperies.
- Position the bed under the window so the curtains act as a make shift canopy.
