Rug Tent |
Bed slats |
- Rugs x 2
- Bed slats x 8
- Hinges x 2
- Screws
- Length of dowel or thin rod
- Attach a hinge to two lengths of wood so that the hinge can not bend beyond 90 degrees. This will leave a notch for the top rod to sit in.
- Attach two bottom lengths of wood so the supports will stand upright, and these will be used to hold the sides of the rug down.
- Do this again so you have two of these.
Parts |

Sit one support in the open position on top of the rug at one end. |
Add the second support. |
Sit the rod into the notch on top of each support. |

Drape a rug over the top. Tuck in the ends under the wooden feet. |
