Tin hut is this a tin hut or a grass shack?

Where to get the rattan?
Was the velcro pre sticky or did you have to pookey it on? If so what pookey?

Is that a Grand Prize opener to the right of the door or is it PepsiCola?

Would like to see more of the interior please.

Yes, that is a bottle opener riveted next to the door. Yes the Tin Hut is more of a rolling Tiki Hut. I'll try to post some more pics soon, it takes me a long time to get the pics sized small enough to post. The Velcro I used is double sided so all you have to do is peel it off of both sides and stick on. Use the Industrial strength stuff from Home Depot. The rattan wall covering I used is actually a bunch of rattan place mat squares from World Market. I tried bamboo (from mini blinds) but couldn't get it to stay on. You can't use glue on the rattan or it just soaks thru, stains and then falls off. The velcro seems to do the trick.

LOVE the parrot!!

I've been trying to figure out how to cover our front window on the inside. Sometimes, at night, it can get rather cold sleeping next (under)it and it would be nice to have some kind of padded (insulated) cover to hold out the cold. You have given me some ideas using the heavy duty velcro, but trying to figure out about it showing since the cover won't be up all the time. Does it come in several colors? (like beige). Any thoughts, anyone?

We have gotten velcro at our fabric store. The tan seems to be best for use with our sage and tan decor.

Colors are black, white, tan, navy blue, red, green. These are without the glued backing.
This is the tan color:
