Best hexayurt amenities for burning man?

[Zak Kus]

I am working on getting a H6 stretch, and was trying to figure out what to put in it? Previously when i've gone to burning man, its just been a tent and sleeping bag, but this time i was going to aim for a little more luxury.

Anyone have any suggestions of things they like to keep in their yurt? I was even contemplating trying to put a hammock inside...

I brought a queen size inflatable mattress.  AWESOME!  We slept great. 

We by chance ended up camping in the gay section (my wife and I), and we had a great time but, there was this nightclub type venue right across from us, point being their music went thump a thump till the wee hours.  So, the one thing that allowed us to enjoy sleeping on our inflatable mattress were foam ear plugs, several sets just in case. 

Brought 3 coolers and a utility box with a locking lid, kept them all inside. The utility box made for a decent table for preparing and eating. Things like a cutting board, a good knife, etc are worth it.

2 folding chairs, we mostly sat on the mattress but the chairs were nice to set things on, like clothes or gear or whatever.

Several Bota boxes of wine (it's pretty decent actually).

We brought LOTS of water and kept it all inside as well.

Since I carried my H13 on my roof in a plywood tarp sandwich, I used one of the plywood boards as a makeshift floor/mat right in front of the door, outside, so you could take your shoes off and leave them there, instead of tracking all that dust inside.  It REALLY makes a huge difference taking your shoes off outside. And it's nice to be able to walk around inside your yurt barefoot just after you've washed your feet (assuming you plan on washing your feet of course), especially if you like going to bed with clean feet.  I do, guess I'm anal that way.

Portable speaker for my iPod, gotta have tunes in the yurt (at least I do).

Spray bottles are nice to have too, as you can use them to cool down the inside of your yurt during the day by spraying the air inside.

We also brought a broom to keep the inside of the yurt as clean as possible. Like I said, we're kind of clean freaks (pretty hilarious/ridiculous being a clean freak at BM).

And 2 giant fuzzy pillows to sleep with, cheap and fun, from Ross dept store.

Burn on,
