Q&A for How to Create an Indoor Tent

Try some safety pins, rope or strong string, paper clips, staples, or just tie them together.

Just put one more blanket inside the tent and clip it with clips. You may add more blankets for more rooms.

Yes, but you will need to secure it to a chair or couch. Make sure you don't cover it with a heavy comforter, though.

If you have bunk beds, cover the space between the two beds with a sheet or blanket.

Use four chairs about three feet away from each other and a couple of tablecloths/blankets on top. Secure them with rubber bands. It's very basic, but will fit everyone. If you're looking for a classic "A" frame, you can use some hiking sticks or tree branches and tie them together with rubber bands. Then, just drape a cloth over. It should look something like this: /¯¯/\.

Yes, you could do that. If you have one of those beds that has really long poles, just put a blanket over the top. Otherwise, it'll be a bit hard unless you make the tent on the floor alongside the bed and use the bed as one wall but you'd still need chairs or something on the other side.

No. You could use the end of a bed, dresser handles etc.

Yes, but they have to be bigger curtains. Curtains can be used like blankets, you just have to flatten them out.

You can make it with a table. Put blankets over the table so that they hang off each side.

You can tie it to a door handle, leg from a table, handle from a closet, bookcase, etc. Just be sure that it won't break or fall, or cause a tripping obstruction to anyone.

Usually it is perfectly safe to make an indoor tent. Just make sure nothing heavy can collapse onto it and set it up away from people walking or moving around in case they bump into it.

You can do work if you like in your tent. If you have a lot of work make sure that the tent is spacious and has sufficient light and room for books, laptop, etc. Customize it just the way you like it. You can even purchase an office tent for working in if you like.

It depends on how small the space you use. If you build it in your closet, make sure you can get in. Don’t close the door, so you have more space. You can make it cozy with blankets, pillows, and a nightlight.

An indoor tent can be tied onto various things, such as chair rungs, seat backs, table legs, door knobs (as long as the door isn't going to be opened and shut), hooks on the wall, etc. Whatever you choose, ensure that it is sturdy, won't move and won't cause anything to fall onto you or the floor.

You could use bedsheets, large bath towels, curtains or a tarp.
