Sleeping beauties
A bed canopy has a fairy-tale quality that sets the mood for restful sleep.
Choose from crisp stripes, smart tailored linen or romantic sheers.
HOW TO MAKE IT WORK…
•Recreate traditional French country style by draping striped ticking across two poles hung from ceiling hooks with ribbon. A floral bedcover adds dramatic contrast.
•For the height of romance, hang sheers from a wall-mounted tester, adding a decorative touch with a pretty hold-back
•Introduce an exotic feel with a canopy made from a cane screen, held in place by simple rope.
•Soften a contemporary four-poster bed with a sophisticated canopy made from a subtle, large-scale print.
•Choose a sprigged floral to make matching canopies for a guest bedroom.
•Give a four-poster bed a regal look with a smart tailored canopy and curtains.
•Use simple Japanese-style screens for a contemporary look.
