Guest Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I've got an Ikea family card (so I can get a free coffee mid week ) They have a quarterly free magazine for members. I get mine digitally via an e-mail to be ecofriendly. The pages are interactive and the new magazine on page one has a little figure saying 'click me' when you open it its a printable pattern for making a child's teepee and its very simple. Uses 3m of fabirc 150cm wide (which is the width of all Ikea fabrics) A creative project for half term if you are a ikea family card holder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickylear Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Wow.... thanks again Biccy, I was planning on making a teepee outside. I'm thinking of using shower curtain material to try and make it as waterproof as poss.....if it turns out ok I will post a pic..... Do I need to register with Ikea to get the e catalogue?

Guest Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I've managed to save the pattern file but I won't post it in the open forum because its Ikeas pattern. I think Ikea would be ok with me sharing with a friend as it allows me to forward it to friend via email. If you would like it PM me with either an e-mail address and I will forward the link or request I send you the saved file (PDF format) within a pm.

louby loo Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 All I got was vouchers for cheap funiture!! the tipee sounds good. xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Hi, We only got a paper catalogue and vouchers for furniture savings. Maybe it depends on how many trips you have made to the store in the last few months. It's a pity because having just finished making a milk carton igloo with my class would be good to make a teepee next. Nicky Sussex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Fear not! mundia to the rescue. Here's a link to the Ikea website where you can see the details for yourself. Talking to some of the moderators about it, given that the email was sent from Ikea with an invitation to share with friends (and that it is a good way of advertising for Ikea) we thought there wasn't a high risk of copyright infringement. However, it is always better to upload a link to a website than the actual document because that way the website owner has control over whether it is freely available or not. Thanks biccy for thinking carefully about the copyright issues! Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Hi, Will take some finished pictures next week and then try to upload them. Involved several parent helpers to support children with the hot glue guns, some masking tape and loads of 4 pint plastic milk cartons but we now have a space for children to read with a friend or just to be and have some time for themselves whihc is often tricky in a class of 30 Reception Children.
