this makes us smile

The girls absolutely love it! Most afternoons you will find one (or two) of them swinging back and forth. Sometimes it’s with a book in hand and sometimes not. When evenings come and the girls are in bed, I like to have my turn in the hammock and just relax. There is a couch across from it, so sometimes Ben will sit there and we’ll chat. One night, our power went out for a few hours, so I just opened up the windows, lit some candles, and quietly read while lying in the hammock. It was such a peaceful evening. Those types of evenings need to happen here more often.
It hangs from a very sturdy clasp and chain that are hooked onto some really sturdy eye bolts. Ben found the stud in the wall and that’s where the eye bolts went in. It is very secure and as long as it is being used properly, there are no problems. My only qualm is that the hanging fringe comes off easily, so I am always having to crochet it back on. Other than that, it’s a pretty dreamy place to relax and it’s one of our new favorite spots in the house.
Our indoor hammock is a spot in our house that definitely makes us smile. What spot in your home makes you smile?
Ooooooh!!! I love your hammock!!!! It´s lovely and it has an incredible color!!!
That hammock looks like indoor perfection. Better yet….no bugs to contend with. Happy Summer!!
Sounds like the perfect spot to spend a peaceful afternoon!
it totally is! you gotta get hammock up too!
This is such a great idea. Your blog posts always have a sense of family-like coziness.
i really really love that hammock! If I had one of those inside (or outside) my house, I will never ever get up. EVER. I will just lay there all day reading…esp. now that I’ve discovered how easy it is to buy kindle books.

I don’t really have a smiling spot in our home because we have a tiny 2 bdrm duplex home and not much furniature or decorations at all. I’m a minimalist that makes that even worse. When I look around I want less. Your house looks so pretty and I love the colors and the small things that look lovely and not cluttery. I think I have a weird sense with that stuff because my parents are clutter freaks and I hate hate hate it and they’ve never rid of anything since they moved there in 1973. :: sigh ::
Anyway I love the indoor hammock. I think it is unique and comfy and so sweet to see the girls hanging out on it together!
This is such a great idea!
I wish I had the space to have an indoor hammock for myself!
I really want to get a hammock and have looked at lots of pictures of indoor swings and hanging beds, so this would be a great compromise! I love the colors and design – where did you get it?
