all we do is colour co-ordinate the main furnishing items in our tent...for us that means black, pale silver grey and a neutral sandy cream...not everything is all matchy matchy, but when things start falling apart and need replacing then we'll tend to look for items that will fit in with our colour scheme...for example there are still a few years left in our blue, green, black and white tent carpet so for now that will remain in use as it serves its purpose well...we don't go as far as to colour co-ordinate stoves, saucepans, cooking utensils etc however (life's too short and all that ), tho many do...
as for the outside of our tent we prefer to keep that nice and simple with a nice canvas windbreak...i can't bear all the fairy lights, bunting, flags and wind spinners...makes me feel like i'm camping on a fairground...

No I don't decorate. For me, a nice tent is sufficiently pwitty not to need anything extra. However, this is just how I want my own tent to be. I take real delight in how others go about their interior (and exterior!) design. There are some lovely, exotic setups out there and it's great fun to see the pictures or see them on site.
If I had huge amounts of money to spend and a tent was just a fun add-on to my life, I'd buy a big 4x4 and a trailer, then get a large bell tent and kit it out with antiques such as a campaign desk, little wooden safari tables, those boxes the Victorians used to have with the glasses and tantalus inside for wine... posh Turkish carpets... I'd then get someone else to pitch it and sit in it in Edwardian dress, sipping my G&T like a duchess.
Hehehe, but it aint ever going to happen, so my tent is just my idea of simple, practical perfection.
EDIT: I do take a spinney thing if my grandson is with us. He enjoys colourful, whirly things.
