Create a Romantic Bedroom With a Canopy Bed
( By Lisa A Mason )

Canopy beds have always been a symbol of love and romance and this holds true today. If you have always wanted a canopy bed but thought they were too expensive, you'll be happy to know that they're not as costly as you may have thought. All you need to do is use a little imagination and there are many options available to you.

The most important feature of your canopy bed will be the material that is used to surround the bed. This is what will set the type of mood that you're trying to achieve. Some of your options include velvet, silk, tapestry, calico and sheer panels to name a few. In order to choose the one that best suits your taste you need to take some time to look at the different options to see which one you prefer.

You can also choose different lengths for the panels that you use. The floor length panels are the most popular but you can get your panels a few inches longer so they will gather around the bed or you can choose to use double panels. If you don't have a canopy frame, don't worry. You won't have to spend lots of money investing in one. There are other ways to create the canopy look without the frame.

One suggestion is to install curtain rods around the bed to hold the fabric in place. Another option would be to install rings above the bed and drape the fabric through the rings. There are many different options available that will help you achieve the look you're after.

You can have the romantic bed that you always dreamed of without spending a small fortune. All you need to do is be a little creative and before you know it, you'll have the look you want. A canopy bed is truly a great way to turn a dull lifeless bedroom into a charming romantic get-a-way.
