I love my Cabana!!!
I was so excited to see it come back in stock and loved the tan color much better than the blue and white striped cabana that was available before then out of stock for months... I was able to use a gift card we had received for Christmas to purchase it... It is classy, eye catching and a definite conversation opener...
Carolyn and I put it up in the living room as practice for an indoor event i was doing in town... It does take two of us to put it up and if you gently pull and push on the crossbars it does click into place... We found that putting the curtains in a circle on the floor then lifting up was the best way to put the curtains on... It was a hit and attracted attention with the mounted hanging mirror, hanging pictures and especially the chair with the frilly black and white pillow inside... At 5X5 it is spacious and has plenty of room to comfortably change inside, just need to add the coat rack and it will be much like the upscale dressing room experience I was looking for...
My next event was outside... It was cold, blustery, and raining... The cabana was a great respite from the elements... It stayed warm inside... This time the cabana was protected under my 10X10 easy up... It was also great to have the cabana to put the clothes in when it started raining, as well as a place to warm up and still watch the crowd... At this event I had many try on clothes and a lil ballerina even changed out of her costume in complete privacy... We were even able to put all the contents of the booth inside the cabana and close it up and leave it there for the two day event... This event had lots of security so leaving merchandise was an option...
I cant wait to use the cabana as a photo booth at our family reunion in June... In case we dont have the cool Fischer Tent this year it can be used for resting babies and mommas... Protection for grand babies from the elements, and their cousins at parties and events... This cabana could even be used as a place for a bride to wait before her grand entrance, as it has zippered openings on two sides... The cabana will make a great central location easy for family members to find when they wander off to other places at the park, or beach... I can see our radios set up inside and again protected from the sun, wind and other elements... Even the roadside set ups for bike rides, races and parades, it is after all a 5X5 easy up when you do not used the curtains... I see lots of potential for our little striped cabana... Any other ideas of uses for the Cabana?
