Fairy lights and sheer curtains do sound dreamy, but have you thought about the practicality of shimmer fabric on a ceiling? I mean, it looks amazing in photos, but wouldn't dust be a nightmare? I tried something similar once with gauzy fabric panels and spent more time sneezing than relaxing, lol. Maybe there's a way to seal or treat the fabric first...or am I just overthinking this?
I totally get the dust concern—been there myself with fabric ceilings. Maybe try a tighter weave fabric that's less dust-prone? Or how about hanging it loosely so you can easily take it down and shake it out occasionally...would that help?

That's exactly what I did when I transformed my attic into a cozy reading nook. I used a lightweight cotton fabric with a tighter weave, hung it loosely with some hooks, and every month or so I'd just unhook one side, give it a good shake outside, and pop it back up. Honestly, dust wasn't much of an issue after that. Plus, the gentle draping really added to the fantasy vibe I was going for...
