Time to take a look at...
teepees!
Always a popular feature in kid's rooms -

teepees can also make a rather stylish addition to a more adult space -
Top row: Classic Bride and Sara's Party Perfect; bottom row: Feather and Nest and Creamy Life |
They look great in the garden -
Clockwise from the top left: Project Wedding, Remodelista, Poddleblog and Flickr |
and can provide support for plants -

or a home for birds -

They can take on a real sculptural quality when made out of sticks -

or when lit up against the night sky -

Teepees can be the source of inspiration for decorator items for your home -
Teepee style lamps and Teepee teatowel available from Etsy seller Lineacarta |
or your walls -
"Fancy Living" Print by Kelli Murray, "TeePee" digital art available from Puffed Peonies and "Teepee For Two" fine art print via thispapership |
and can add style to your celebration -
Clockwise from the top: Ruffled, Utterly Engaged, Ruffled, papa kata and English Wedding |
In fact, some teepees look so good -
Left hand side: Upside Down and Inside Out and to the right: Mesh and Lace and Three Eggs |
that they almost make me want to spend more time outdoors - I said almost!
So there you have it, a little pow wow about wig wams for you on a Wednesday!
