One of the easiest ways to add a hint of magic to a child’s space is with a simple canopy. They can add drama and exoticness or just a more private, cozy feel to a room. Here are 15 children’s rooms with canopies, some very simple, others more elaborate…
Most any fabric will work, although lightweight, gauzy ones are a popular choice. Our projects editor, Dabney Frake, walks through a tutorial to make your own here using curtain panels (see the results at #12 below). If you live near an IKEA, they sell a children’s canopy for $20.
