Inspiration:

I have always wanted a miniature tipi for a centerpiece or decorative piece on an end table. But could never afford one. One morning I dreamed of a raven circling over a tepee. Immediately upon waking I went into the studio and designed what I dreamed in miniature. The design turned out to be very simple and easy to assemble. So, I decided to create kits that were reasonably priced and inexpensive to ship. I hope you love your miniature teepees as much as I love mine!

Note: Please don’t use regular flame tea lights or votives. Only battery operated tea lights and votives are meant for this design.
