DIY Inexpensive Lightweight Tent Footprint

For this project you will need some 6 mil plastic. You can find this in the hardware store, usually in the paint section near the drop cloth's and tarps.

You will also need a grommet kit. I used 3/8" grommets, but the size will depend on the diameter of your tent stakes. Get the smallest size that your tent stakes will fit into.

Finally you will need a pair of scissors that are sharp enough to cut the plastic. Regular household scissors should work just fine.

The video explains all of the steps. It's really very simple, but effective.
