    When I purchase tarps for the truck, I always have then laid out and inspect them. The place I buy from in illinois has a sewing pit like an oil change shop. It is a testament to your mom's skills. watching your mom do all this in a dining room, much respect. Great job to the entire crew 👏👏

    Tammy, I see that your mom knows how to sew things together very well. Madison and Kaila are great helpers and may gain some sewing knowledge in the process. Some indoor/outdoor carpet can do well for the deck even in the summer. I'd enjoy a night in your tent with a good little bit stove and your good cooking. Should I bring the steaks and my own cot? Might also need to bring some seasoned tamarack and red fur that puts out a bit more heat. Use small C clamps to tie it up. Pins that are named safety might not do the job. Another great video that was done before the actual camping. Have a super wonderful day. Moses

    Love it Tami! And I especially love the fact that it was a family affair!
    For a base I would put down a heavy tarp to stop wind. I would fold it up under the roof of the tent so water, snow, or wind can’t get in. I would then put down some sort of outdoor carpet for insulation on the floor. Around the fireplace I would put down sheet of Hardibacker, available at your local Home Desperate. This is to prevent hot ash or sparks from doing nefarious things! I would definitely sleep in that sort of get up, just keep the fire on and the coffee hot!

    i love the wood design you hand painted it? great she helped you.
    she lives in usa too i see. aw thats so cute she was teaching the girls to sew too how precious to see that. you grew up partly in usa youve got an accent from Europe but she doesnt. ? is your story here in one of your videos?
    good idea he overlapped material this meant seam would becovered. imagine making your own tent what a task good for her. im middle laying out material making curtains and dog jackets too. getting cold got to get dog jackets finished.
