Hanging the fabric can be done in one of two ways. The first is to run the open loop of each panel through a tension rod that will fit the length of 8-inches. Use a total of four rods, each for a panel and fitting snuggly inside the box. The second option is to use a staple gun and start by tacking one end of a panel in a corner of the box and then taking the opposite end of the panel and tacking it to the opposite end of the same side of the board.
Then gather the rest of the panel, spacing the gathering evenly along that one board. When finished, install the next panel, and so on until all are hung. You will then sweep two of the panels together to one side of the bed, and the other two panels to the other. The result is a beautiful canopy that is elegant.
By using different materials, the look can be changed dramatically. For example, a single female may want to use soft, chiffon-type material in two different pastel colors, creating a soft, feminine look. If the canopy will be used for a teenager, you can use themed material or bold colors. Other options for fabric are to consider pre-made curtains and even designer bed sheets. The possibilities are amazing and your bedroom will look incredible.
