Decorate the ceiling with tulle in a variety of colors.
When decorating for your wedding, take all aspects of your venue into consideration, including the ceiling. Ceiling decorations can transform the ambience of your reception into a romantic and enchanting setting when tulle fabric drapes around the room. Using tulle or another fabric in decorating requires you to have an eye for balance, because adding too much fabric on the ceiling can feel overwhelming, while not adding enough can make the ceiling decorations look half-finished.
Instructions
1. Plot out the design of the ceiling and how you want the fabric to hang. If there are beams in the ceiling, you might want to wrap the fabric around the beams. Or for flat ceilings, add dimension by draping the tulle at various points. Canopies are another option if you want a lot of fabric coverage.
2. Position the ladder beneath the section of the ceiling on which you are working. You will have to climb down the ladder to move it as you continue working your way across the ceiling.
3. Secure the end of the fabric strip to the point of the ceiling from where the design is starting, using push pins. Push the pins tightly into the ceiling structure. If the structure is too thick for push pins, use a hammer to nail the fabric into place on the ceiling.
4. Drape the fabric from the starting point to the center of the room or midway across a beam. Hold the drape effect in place with another push pin or another nail you hammer in. Continue this pattern as you work the length of the ceiling you wish to decorate.
5. Use double-sided, clear tape to connect the parts of the fabric - in between the push pins or nails - to the ceiling.
6. Wrap multiple colors of fabric around each other to create a color scheme on the ceiling. If your wedding colors are black and white, for instance, you can weave black and white tulle in and out to draw more attention to the ceiling. Keep multiple strands of fabric together with the double-sided tape.
