Ofenjen at sewhooked had a predicament. Her daughter needed a Harry Potter inspired bedroom, and in order to have that, she needed a four poster bed with the school colors draped luxuriously around. Her daughter’s bedroom posed two small problems. There was a ceiling fan in it, and it was too small for a four poster bed anyway. Ofenjen did what any self respecting crafter would do…

She created her own version of a Gryffindor Bed Canopy using lightweight (and inexpensive) PVC pipe that she could affix to her daughter’s wall. Beautiful!
