I don't sew. I wish I did, but I have never had the patience for things that don't come easily to me. I realize this is not a pretty aspect of my personality, but all the same. I wanted a teepee for our backyard so bad. I envisioned my daughter, much as she is above, cuddling up with a book and her baby dolls. So one Saturday afternoon, hubby and I looked around the yard and fashioned this makeshift teepee. We used garden stakes that had previously held up a green bean crop so big we will probably avoid green beans for the next couple of years. For the fabric we used a drop cloth that had been used when spray painting little love's kid sized table and chair set (hence the gray designs). We tied the garden stakes together with twine and put a single rivet on the drop cloth which we then tied closed with more twine. Quick and easy, our little love now requests naps and stories in her teepee.
