I got brave and decided to make my bedspread and all of the pillows. and this is what it turned into.
I have always liked the way that canopy beds looked but I kneew that right now we arent able to afford the whole BED part of the "canopy bed" so I decided that i could make the canopy.
I got some PVC pipe and cut them the length that i needed them, put some of the corner connector thingys on them (the HOME DEPOT guy helped pick them) then spray painted all of it black. (inspired by my mother-in-law who is the queen of spray paint) hooked them together. and got black zip-ties that have holes in the end of them and put a screw through the hole and screwed the whole thing in the ceiling. then put my "canopy" part up (complimets of the leftovers of my moms curtains.) totally this project cost me $3 for spray paint $2 for PVC pipe. and about $25 for fabric. this $30 makeover turned out better then i thought !!!

It turned out great... I love a canopy bed!
I love it...When I am done with school you can come do the decor for my new house... I miss you guys
Since ceiling bed canopies hang above your head, it's important to make sure they are secure in the ceiling. Drill a small hole in the spot over your bed where you want to hang your canopy. For extra support, screw the hooks into drywall anchors.
Loved it! About how much fabric did you use and what size is the bed? Awesome effect.
I think it would all depend on your ceiling height & where you want it to hang. This is a king size bed . I used about 14 yards of fabric
