We are doing a canopy over our bed. We want something that drape well and puddle onto the floor. We also plan to use tiebacks. What is the best fabric

This fabric, after washing, will be soft and 'drape-y'. However, it is not as sheer as a batiste or gauze or chiffon; all of which will also puddle and wash well. Do you anticipate the need to launder the canopy fabric from time to time? If so, stick with softer cotton or cotton/poly blends. The fabric you are referencing in your question comes in 2 yard pre cut lengths. Is that an ideal length for your project?

I bought the Best top roll up. I love it. It keeps everything dry and I have full use of the bed in 20 seconds if I need it. Also keeps the snow out of my bed. It's my third cover on third trick, my second roll up so I can say the best top is good quality and a great deal. I have a 2006 crew cab short bed and it fits great. Installation was a breeze. Good luck.

I would say any microfiber will do the job. I think you can also use swifter cloth's too.

I bought Landscape Fabric at Lowe's and placed it in the bottom! I love my planters they are awesome!! I have 4 of them! Happy Planting!!

A flat sheet is best. It is very high and no sheet or mattress cover is deep enough. I used a cotton quilt with a flat sheet over that.

If you are using the Coleman Sundome tent, you wont have to worry about the floor because its s plastic type floor almost like a tarp. Trust me on thst cause I was in a "monsoon" my first trip out and with high winds and my tent stayed bone dry. Still, put a tarp under it. As far as the seams, there is a rainfly which protects but if you are really concerned, get a larger tarp and use that like I did for an extra rainfly. Supposedly, though, this tent wont need it but all my friends were getting tarps for their tents and told me to do the same so I did. If you still wish to seal the seams, i would contact the Coleman company directly and ask. Putting snything on it might interfere with what is already in the material.

This is the only blackout material I purchase so it's impossible for me to compare. Heavyweight, almost velvety feel to the touch. This fabric works better than any room darkening store bought drape.

Thank you for your inquiry. The fabric is made of vinyl and should not leak through. 18 OCEAN BLUE 17.2 actual fabric width. 2-piece fabric construction Valance is separate from the main canopy to fit both Carefree and Dometic/A&E roller assemblies. Unlike the other brands single piece canopy, Carefrees canopy is welded to a protective Weatherguard wrap that protects the canopy when its rolled up. Heavy duty fabric Comes with white Weatherguard for long life and great looks. It looks better and lasts longer.

I think this is a good choice of fabric for that. The only thing to be aware of is that chiffon frays easily on the side where it is cut, so you just have to make sure that it doesn't get pulled to much on that side.

If you have a regular size king bed and you want to to hang nicely over the sides then get the oversized king. I have a queen bed and wanted the same so I ordered the oversized queen and it drapes perfectly.

I bought a queen and use for a double. Washed first and found it to be great. Matelasse has always been relatively thin as it is a cover, but the fabric is dense. I am 100% happy with my purchase. Hope this helps.

I used coco coir. It holds moisture very well, but it is loose and doesn't compact.

This is designed to be a temporary canopy. The manufacturer says to take it down when stormy weather comes. It is not rated for snow. May hold up if you go out every day and remove all the snow from the canopy. But don't let high drifts pile up against the legs. Take a drive around your area and see if anyone up there has a similar light weight fabric canopy installed -- probably not very many. If you want a more sturdy and permanently installed canopy, look at the all metal types.

We used a folded queen sized poly down comforter for a mattress and put a fitted crib sheet over it that was tucked under the bed's mat. You could also used a folded mattress pad. One other option is to get aiece of 2 inch high density foam from Joanne Fabrics. You can cut it to size with a serrated knife or saw. Not aware there is a mattress made for the size of a play yard.

I have used a light weight blanket that fits over the top and down the sides. It is much cheaper to have a custom made cover. A sheet will also be useful for the cage and you can use the color the bird likes.

I wondered the same thing before I bought this last year. I found a replacement canopy on the ShelterLogic website for $24.99. I didn't want to get stuck with another canopy that I couldn't replace the top. It also appears that a tarp with grommets might work as a cover, although I haven't tried it. I've only used mine for one season and the cover is still in great condition. I wish it was a darker color, though.http://www.shelterlogic.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductId=0c23cc52-9793-4244-887b-9e0c00a57642

I bought this to make a lean-to for a Renaissance Fair. I reinforced the corners and added grommets. Personally I prefer the ones I can get at Home Depot. They don't shrink as much and the fabric seems stronger.
