use old parachutes , check national guare bases

maybe windsurfing sails? ripped ones you could patch together

does it have to be water proof.

does it have to be a real tent? or just something to make the space look enclosed? try lighting if not

what about those plastic coruggated panelthings they look like cardboard but they are palstic translucent but not transparent

there is a fabric that looks like parachute material but i dont know the name.go to afabric warehouse and they should be ableto help

another option is nice sheets- you could change them a bit with ribbon sewed on the edges

how about papier mache? on chicken wire with colored paper or recyled dyed paper? just go nuts.

old t shirts sewn together?

bolts of paper draped over a frame.


what is it for?
