Many years ago I used an old hoola hoop, cheap!
I don't have a full canopy but a corona with a curtain hanging from it. My husband made the corona which is solidly fastened to the ceiling. The fabric of the curtain is a light weight that I wash every year (this is about 20 years old.) You could have crown molding cut in the size of your bed, have a carpenter hang it and make curtains (or have them made) to fit inside the molding. Or you could buy a four poster bed.
here is another version of a tented bed, but not alas the rectangular one wanted!
Hi,. It was so many years ago! Sorry but it is pretty easy if you Google I bet the instructions will be there. It was so cheap! Good luck
Hang 4chain or solid extenders from ceiling.. Depending on size of bead. 2 for head / foot, 2for sides slip nice clips, like for clipping shower or curtain on plastic light metal bamboo, cut to fit thru circles at all ends ode tenders. Stretch material you like over top, adjusting with a hanger, etc in center if heavy and want held up.. Otherwise, stretching and attaching,glueing tight on sides, holds in place an allow overhang for the chain, pole area to slide attached sheets, material, etc back.
