Porch + Swing + Bed = Awesome
Check out how some creative folks used salvaged wood, old doors, and reclaimed furniture to create these wonderful suspended beds, seats, and chair swings for either indoor or outdoor use. I think you'll agree...this ain't yer grandma's porch swing!

Deletelove every swing!! BUT how do you mount them to the ceiling?
ReplyDeleteI would ask for advice on that at your local hardware store. It would depend on your particular ceiling construction.
DeleteGreat Ideas. Love the bed swing. This would be great on a spring or fall evening to relax and star gaze.

my girls want one of these for their bedrooms. I have some old doors and old pallets, you've have given me great ideas on how to get started. they'll love this.
ReplyDeleteI would love to be able to do what I used to. At 62, I have lost a lot of the ability to go get the lumber, saw it, stain it, handle the weight, etc, but I absolutely love the crafting of this type project. Now I just write about it. What I used to do... I am inspired and these are beautiful. I want one for my gazebo out back. Maybe I'll find someone willing to take my idea and turn it into MY swinging bed. Thanks for making my crafting ideas come to life.
ReplyDeleteThanks sooooo much for sharing these adorable swing beds.
ReplyDeleteThese are simply darling, I want to have them!
Probably one of my favorite posts! Thanks!
