My own journey!
The tepee tent was something that I had seen online in 2019 and was instantly drawn to. It was the perfect way to make a special holiday space for my kids and I wanted to make them something they could cherish and remember for years to come. I spent weeks gathering the materials I needed, from bright fabrics to festive Christmas lights.
On the day the tepee tent was complete, I gathered my children around it and we all admired it in awe. We then spent hours decorating it with stockings, garlands, and ornaments. Even our family dog joined in the festivities and we laughed as he tried to fit inside the tent.
Christmas morning was an even bigger surprise. We all gathered around the tepee tent and opened up presents.
It’s been two years since I made the Christmas tepee tent and I’m still amazed at how popular it has become. I’m glad that I was able to share the joy of creating a special holiday space with my children and that others are able to make the same memories with their own families.
Steps
Start by taking your old recycled tepee tent or you can purchase an inexpensive tepee tent to use as the base of your magical Christmas tree.
Next secure your light inside the top of the tepee. This is optional, but I would suggest using a low voltage light.
Start layering those evergreen branches onto the wood frame. This one that you see in the picture has been fixed to the wood using a staple gun.
You want to start from the bottom and work your way up getting shorter as you reach the top. Don’t forget to leave a hole in your tepee for the door.
Add some themed lights to your tepee and then some Christmas decorations and voila! Your Christmas tree tepee tent is ready!
Hi! Did you end up with a lot of needles on your floor? Did the branches die quickly/how long did they last?
How do you store it?
