Make Your Own Crib Canopy

Nursery decoration for heralding the coming of a new baby is full of pleasure, which turns to sheer enjoyment when it is especially done by you. You can create rooms unblemished with fantasy items for your petite princess.

And no bed can befit a princess without proper canopy. Baby Crib canopies are simple to make and could be inexpensively done with the help of home materials.

Half-Crown Crib Canopy

Materials you will need:
-Semicircular plywood,
-2 flat bed sheets,
-small quantity of paint in coordinating shades,
-staple gun, pillow case,
-2 inch x 1 inch wood piece,
-trim,
-hot glue
-and screws.

Directions

Dab the half circular wood in a shade which coordinates well with the fabric.

Beginning with the rear part of the canopy, staple flat sheets to the half-circle's level edge region. Start from the center and move to the ends. Now slowly pull the fabric, and staple this to the estimated center part of the wood, assuming it to be located in in the middle of the already located staples. Repeat the process till the whole fabric goes flat.

For the side panels, saw a king-sized sheet into half. Now staple them to the smoothed edge of half-circle, forming uniform pleats, placing them up to the back panel edges.

For valance, fetch a pillowcase and attach in the same manner as the panels, over the half-circle's whole front end.

Now, add ornamental trim by sticking it over the staples with hot glue.

Now stick to the wall by screwing straight through the 2 inch x 1 inch wood piece.

If you can't directly attach to the studs, use anchors to stabilize the piece.

Your crib canopy is ready. Check each part wholly before you use it for the baby. Add some finishing touches if you wish and it's done.
