    Wow, imagine this done in a whole room with white silk satin, white silk voile and cloth of gold, with loads more fairy lights. Or a tent in the woods hung with those fabrics. What a sumptuous sight that would be to behold!

    Thanks so much for this tutorial, here are some tips that helped me :)
    - if your lights aren't very bright you may want to get a sheer fabric instead of cotton
    - use safety hooks because they have a latch to keep the light from falling, so you don't have to go through the extra effort of tying the light to the hook with fishing line
    -make sure to be very gentle with the ceiling hooks; don't pull down on it or else the hook will fall

    I love the video and I love the great details you have for each step, it's so extremely helpful! I just wish that you recorded a better view of the final results. I feel like I can't get a nice, full view of how it looked. I can see that the sheet went behind your bed frame, but what about the end of your bed? Was the sheet long enough to hang over the end as well?
    I hope that makes sense.

    Very beautiful, but I’m still a bit confused about the pattern of the lights and the way you pinned the fabric with safety pins. You said to pin them up, but how and where. Maybe I’m not with it, but I want to try this with some fabric in my granddaughter’s room at my house. I’m doing this with bunk beds. I hope it comes out half as nice as yours!

      good question, because you have a queen size bed, add another 7 yards, because your bed is wider, you need to triple up the fabric instead of doubling it like i did in the vide
