Reason #547 of Why I Love Yurts (Creative Yurt Interiors 101)

Know why I love yurts?  OK, there are fifty million reasons, but the one that is really on my mind today is the fun of decorating/designing the interior.  Having a space that is so removed from the norm in America, so outside of what we have been culturally raised with, really opens up a world of creative possibilities.  Wanna hang hammocks all over the place inside?  Go for it!  Want a raised platform bed smack in the middle of the yurt?  Try that!  How about a full circle library? 


(That's not our yurt, BTW.  The rest of the ones below are.)
 
 
How about hanging beautiful lace randomly from the center window?
 


Or maybe prayer flags?
 
 
 
 
Or go really crazy and paint the stairs to your loft in rainbow colors!
 

There are truly no rules in yurt  interior décor.  It's a big circle.  Go crazy.  Make floors out of stones and slices of trees.  Or paint it purple.  Hang drying herbs from the center ring.  Or a kite.  Or hundreds of peace cranes.  That's my next project:


Or maybe you're classy and not so crazy.  Cool.  Decorate your yurt in nothing but shades of white and cream with occasional punches of pale blue.  Hang yards of gauzy fabric everywhere.  It doesn't ever have to look like anything you've seen in the design magazines, because it already won't because you live in a YURT!  I've never lived in a place that I felt more free to do whatever my heart desired than in this old used yurt.  It's a small enough space that projects aren't too big and nothing costs too much.  And there's always, always the reminder--through the sounds of the forest that the walls don't hold out and the breezes flowing through on any day over 60 degrees--that no matter what we do to the interior of this home, the truest, most important beauty, is not indoors at all:

  1. I am Alecia Maldonado used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Dr Mandaker); he just got he just got his website (holyaraminta.com), has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps
    for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as witchhealing@outlook.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,Barrenness(need a child),goodLuck voodoo,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
    more!
