DIY Canopy with Fairy Lights 🌟

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Hello! Today I have a fairly simple and easy DIY square canopy with string lights for you all today. This was very easy to make and it wasn't that expensive. Before I thought about making it myself, I looked up some online and they were all too expensive (and horrible quality) so I decided to bring the tool belt out and do it myself. I hope this canopy tutorial helped you out and tag me on instagram so I can see your work if you end up making it #pastelitas This canopy is such a game changer because it makes your room look like the coveted tumblr rooms with string lights! Subscribe for more DIYs and don't forget to comment down below for more video suggestions! Thanks~♥
Main materials used
White Muslin Cotton~ less than a dollar per yard at Joann's !
String lights~ www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...
1 1/4 cup hooks I got at Walmart for only a buck for three hooks!

    Wow, imagine this done in a whole room with white silk satin, white silk voile and cloth of gold, with loads more fairy lights. Or a tent in the woods hung with those fabrics. What a sumptuous sight that would be to behold!

    Thanks so much for this tutorial, here are some tips that helped me :) - if your lights aren't very bright you may want to get a sheer fabric instead of cotton - use safety hooks because they have a latch to keep the light from falling, so you don't have to go through the extra effort of tying the light to the hook with fishing line -make sure to be very gentle with the ceiling hooks; don't pull down on it or else the hook will fall

I feel like I can't get a nice, full view of how it looked. I can see that the sheet went behind your bed frame, but what about the end of your bed? Was the sheet long enough to hang over the end as well? I hope that makes sense.

    If we didn't have a ceiling fan, I would do this in my master bedroom.
