Materials:
- Hula hoop
- King or queen-sized flat sheet
- 8 screw-in hooks
- Thumb tack
- Duct tape
Directions:
- First, locate the wide hem at the top of your sheet. cut openings on each end of the hem to create a long pocket!
- Next, cut your hula hoop to open the circle, and thread it through the hem pocket on your sheet.
- Once threaded through, duct tape your hula hoop back together. You should now have a hula hope completely covered by the sheet.
- Overlap each open end of the sheet’s hem and place a thumb tack through the sheet into the hula hoop to keep it in place, making sure the hula hoop doesn’t show.
- screw 4 of the hooks directly into the top of the hula hoop through the sheet, in a square pattern, like so:
- screw the other 4 hooks directly into your ceiling making sure they line up with the locations of the hooks on your canopy.
- hook your canopy to the ceiling and enjoy!
