Tree swings! What is it about a tree swing that draws you in, like there is some magnetic force pulling you closer, even just at the site of an abandoned swing? There’s something even nostalgic about the scene of a home with a swing hanging from a tree. Perhaps taking you back to a simpler and carefree time in your life.
There’s no doubt that creating a dedicated space for children to run around and play outside is beneficial to their physical health and happiness (and their Mother’s sanity! 😜 especially during this pandemic). Children love swings, but sometimes having one in your own yard might be challenging.
What if the trees in your landscape don’t have large enough branches or limbs to hang a swing? Well, with a little bit of creativity, we will show you how to hang your own tree swing without a branch! You’ll soon have the coveted appeal of a tree swing adorning your own yard this summer season!
