Decorate Doorways With Tulle

Create a welcoming entryway with tulle.


Whether you're decorating for a wedding, a shower, a birthday party or any other type of event to which you want to add a whimsical feel, use tulle as a decorative element. This light and airy fabric is easy to work with and add a delicate, feminine touch to a space. Drape tulle over a doorway to create an inviting entryway to the event.


Instructions


1. Measure the width of the doorway and double the measurement.


2. Attach a self-adhesive hook to the wall above the doorway. The hook should be attached about 6 inches above the door frame.








3. Locate the center of the tulle. Tie a decorative ribbon in a bow around the center of the material.


4. Hang the bow at the center point of the fabric on the hook above the doorway. The tulle should have two equal lengths hanging down from either side of the hook.


5. Tie a decorative ribbon in a bow around one of the sides of the material. Drape the material to the side of the doorway. Attach the material to the wall on the side of the doorway by inserting a pushpin on the backside of the bow.








6. Repeat step 5 with the opposite side of the fabric.
