I decorated my canopy bed by wrapping 150 Christmas lights all around the top of the wooden rails. I made sure that the control to the lights was near the head of the bed. This set has a control with 8 different settings.
I also wrapped silk ivy around the lights and found some inexpensive ivy from The Dollar Store, and draped ivy on all four ends. This has been a lot of fun for us. I have tried making it interesting by occasionally changing all the light bulbs in color. Its quite a task but its interesting trying out different colors.
I have also taken the Christmas poinsettias we bought at Christmas time that have clips on them and clipped them to the bedroom curtains. I found some grapes that light up that were perfect in going around the outside of the frame of our bed. I talked my husband into letting me buy enough to go around the bed. I love it and enjoy it at night.
