I like the idea. Now that the Bryn Gwlad events are being held in  
town at Don Shamino's site, my wife and I have been daytripping more  
rather than hassling with putting up a pavilion 20 minutes from home.  
One of the problems about not having a pavilion is having a place to  
change, either from or into mundane clothing or from one type of  
period clothing to another as the temperature changes or something  
gets dirty. So I like this idea of having a changing area.

However, we often have trouble finding enough pavilions for just the  
main requirements, gate, list field, A&S display etc. and this  
requires, I assume, two more.

Several years ago, a group down near the lake at Pennsic near where I  
camp, covered one of the plastic privies with decorated, red cloth  
coverings making it look like one of the older British telephone  
booths.  Sorta clashes with the medieval feel as well, but cute. So  
it is possible to do something like this. I'm not sure what medieval  
motif would work though.

There is this Florilegium file, but alas nothing in it about  
decorating them.
