Best Answer

The simplest way:

* Use closet poles and PVC elbow joints to make a rectangular frame. It should probably be the same size as the mattress. * Hang the frame from the ceiling using eyehooks and strong fishing line. A somewhat more elaborate route is to use all PVC, and construct an entire canopy bedframe.

You can get order furniture-grade snap-together PVC pipes and fittings from a company like Simplified Buildings Concepts (http://www.simplifiedbuilding.com/), or from a well-stocked hardware store.

* Use 7' pipes for the vertical supports. * Use pipes that are just slightly longer than the dimensions of your mattres. For example, a queen mattress is 60" by 80", so get two 62" pipes and two 82" pipes. * Use the Three-Way-L fitting to connect them all together.
