I hemmed the edges as well.
Diy retractable awning pergola.
When retracted this diy pergola canopy tucks neatly away at one end of the structure.
If you are never going to want sun on your patio then a diy stationary pergola canopy is probably the way to go.
Next measure the distance of the screw eyes from one to the other on your pergola and then place the drapery hooks at those measurements.
It uses outdoor fabric to create some shade and rain protection and is the easiest way to cover your pergola.
Add extra shade and style to your outdoor living space with a wire hung canopy system.
With a retractable canopy the fabric is attached to support boards that slide along tensioned stainless steel cables called wire ropes.
These billowing shades easily slide on the cables they hang from so you can have shade when you want it and retract them when you want a little more sun.
Cut your fabric to size.
