Unique Tents for Events

Sorry about the lack of posts this week folks- servers seem to be extra touchy. I got logged on today though, and that’s good news because I have a killer tent company to share.

Bedouin Freeform Tents is a Australian based company. They create what they call, “creative fabric engineering solutions.” Which is one way of saying their tents and inflatable designs rock the house. If you needed a tent or inflatable something or other, these would be the folks to call. Their stretchy designs are unique in color and form, which of course can liven any old event - wedding, birthday, company picnic, and more. Take a look at some of their designs…

See a couple more…

Here’s an inflatable design - not sure what was going on, but it appears to be some sort of outside office.

And my favorite - which seems like a nice honeymoon idea:

Ah romance.

In any case, these tents are really sweet, and there are plenty more to see at the Bedouin Freeform Tents website.

Who loves this house?
By: Offbeat Homes    3 days 1 hours 14 minutes ago

Choose me! ME!

I love this house. Love how it was captured on film. AND I especially love the colors.

You will love it too - but you’ll have to leave me to go see it (copyright, and no time for permission issues.) Yeah, I get impatient. Also, there’s more cool stuff to see at this blog, so it wouldn’t kill you to go look.

See the house!

You can thank me later. Or now if you so choose :)

My pal Peggy sent me this amazing (yet in need of some work) glass house:

I had not heard of the back story of this house before, but it’s interesting. Read the back story here. Be sure to read through the photo comments, because how the photo was done is pretty cool too.

I had this weird dream
By: Offbeat Homes    8 days 7 hours 28 minutes ago

In the dream, I was dating some famous person (not going there), but the dream took place in Florida (I’ve never been) and the kooky part was that a bunch of people, including me, were visiting this museum of tiny Pennsylvania. It was just this oddball museum, where you’d walk through the halls looking at tiny versions of all the parts of Pennsylvania. In the dream, everyone was very impressed. It was really strange.

Long story short, it got me thinking about this link my friend Marye sent me - Tiny Texas Houses.

These tiny houses are made from 95% recycled vintage materials, but the electric, plumbing, and insulation is new. This is a perfect way to reuse, semi-used resources. Plus the houses are totally cute, and leave a small footprint.

There are all types of tiny houses to see, from rustic to antique and more. Visit Tiny Texas Houses to see all the adorable little homes.
