In Tents


When I was a kid, my brother and I each had those tents you can attach to your bed. If I recall correctly, I had Rainbow Brite and he had He-Man, with matching sheets of course. I've realized my hatred of camping can be traced back to my love for these tents. Why would you sleep on the ground outside when an awesome 80s cartoon tent can be attached to your own cozy bed? Anyway, the indoor tents above are pretty awesome too and perhaps a little more sophisticated than Rainbow Brite.

  2. Those are so pretty. I have to say, I'm slightly jealous. I always wanted one of those bed tents. I think I coveted my neighbor's Strawberry Shortcake one haha. Those tents remind me of the fabulous one in the movie Holiday with Jude Law & Cameron Diaz. Jude's kids had this amazing big tent with lights & plush pillows. So cute!

  9. My brother, cousins, and I used to build big elaborate tents on my great aunt's deck from pillows and towels. We'd swim in the pool for a bit then retreat to our tent for a nap or snacks. Those were so much fun.
