Diy Twin Daybed Frame The first one for my bedroom decoration series. And I'm thinking about doing like a bedroom series since a lot of you guys have been asking for more room decoration decor and DIYs, and also for me to do a room tour. I'm not completely done decorating my room, so I thought of doing a series, and as I go, you guys can kinda see the new stuff that I'm making, and I can also introduce you guys to new DIYs. At first I was thinking about making, like, one video filled with a whole bunch of DIYs that you can make for this upcoming Valentine's Day, and for decorating your room, but then the more I thought about it, I was just like, you know what, I want to be able to provide you guys with quality instruction and a quality DIY, instead of making disposable things that you will get of. I want to make things that you can feel proud of, at the end of all my videos, and also for you to keep around for, you know, the long term. So let's start off the series with a DIY canopy. So let's run down the list of materials for this DIY canopy. First off, to set the look, you will need a fabric that suits your taste. I'm using about eight yards of lace see-through fabric.Next, I have two one-inch thick wooden dowels. You can use smaller and thinner ones as well, if you use a lightweight fabric. You can find these at your home improvement stores, or craft stores. They're pretty lightweight, and cost between 50 cents to two dollars each. Preventing the fabric from sliding off the ends are these one and a half inch wooden plates. Craft stores should carry this in the wood or dollhouse making section. To hang up the canopy, you will need four screw-on hooks. And this should depend on the weight of your canopy and fabric.
If you are using something heavier weight, then I would suggest for you to get bigger hooks that can withhold the weight. If you want to prevent your hooks from tearing through the Sheetrock ceiling, find anchors that matches your hook screw thickness. Next, Diy Daybed Frame I will be using about three yards in ribbon. And this should all be determined based on how low you want to hang you canopy. Lastly, I will be using pins, a needle, and some thread to match my fabric. So for step one, determine where you would like your canopy to hang on your ceiling. You will be using two sets of screw-on hooks, a pair for each dowel. Measure out four holes, evenly spaced apart. What I first did, was determine how wide I wanted my canopy. Now with a marking pencil, measure about ten inches in on the edges of your bed, and 12 inches from the wall. The second set of measurements will also be measured from the wall out, going 32 inches. You can also use different type of measurements, depending on where you would like to place your canopy. Step two, drill holes into the ceiling and press in your anchors like so. Then, screw in the hooks. Step three, let's make up the canopy. Start by tying some ribbon to the hooks that you screwed in earlier. Then, drape the uncut fabric into the ribbon on both ends. Adjust it on both sides until you get the look that you want. This will also help you know if you have any excess fabric to cut off. Make sure to place pins where you need to cut, and also tie the ribbon as you take off the fabric. The ribbon will help mark where you will need to hang up the canopy, and sew pockets for the dowels. Alright, so step four, cut off the excess fabric. I purchase about ten yards of fabric, and end up only using eight yards. With the leftover material I think I will make a curtain with it. Step five, it's time to spread out the fabric and make sure to leave your marking spot. Now take out one of the dowels, and place it into the wrong side of the fabric. Fold the fabric over it. Now it's time to double-thread your needle, and tie at the bottom.
Go ahead and hand sew in the fabrics together, Diy How To Make Daybed Frame like so, and basically what we're doing is sewing a pocket for the dowel. Make sure to repeat this on the other mark where you tied your ribbon. Once you're finished with your sewing, you should have something like this. For step six I decided to prime and spraypaint my wooden plates a metallic silver. Then, once that's dry, I go ahead and glue them onto each ends of my dowels. For step seven I'm going to cut out two sets of 30 inch length ribbons. This length allows me to suspend my rods 15 inches from my ceiling. Find the middle and then tie them to each ends of the rod in a simple knot. Then tie the loose ends together with a square knot like so. Alright, so now we are on to our last step, and that is step eight, hang up the canopy. I'm very pleased with how this turned out. If I was to do anything differently, then I would probably cut the dowels shorter, or either paint them silver. Other than that, I'm still very happy with the way this turned out, and I hope you enjoy your canopy as well. Okay guys, thank you so much for watching, don't forget to thumbs up and subscribe if you haven't. Also, for my January give-away, I will be giving away a painter set since a lot of you guys liked my last video DIY on painting. I bought the exact acrylic paint that I used for that video.
