I really wanted a posh canopy bed but couldn’t afford it – so I got my man to make a DIY one, it’s easy & people love it
A WOMAN has revealed how her heart was so set on a canopy bed that her husband lovingly constructed one for her.
The TikTok user, called Jasmine, explained in a video how she couldn’t afford to buy the pricey bed frame.
In a post, Jasmine shared that her other half convinced her it was possible to make a DIY version.
She had fallen for a bed frame from the US furniture brand Arhaus, but had been put off by the price tag that was just under $5,000 (£3,865).
The woman said: “I asked my husband if we could make it and he said yes.”
She then explained how the couple had bought the wood and chopped it to size, before sanding and painting it.

Jasmine then took viewers step-by-step through the process of putting together the bed frame to achieve the “grand” feeling she was after.
The final part was to check that the base could fit their adjustable mattress.
Her post has been ‘liked’ more than 660,000 times, with over 3,700 DIY fans leaving messages of praise.
One person wrote: “Now that’s what you call teamwork, beautiful bed!!!!”
Another shared: “Love this for you.”
However, many joked that Jasmine was very fortunate to have an enthusiastic partner on hand.
One person wrote: “Step one have a husband who actually knows and wants to do DIY projects – looks AMAZING.”
Another commented: “Step 1: get a husband.”
A third shared: “Lord please send me a man that can build and teach me how to build.”
