Outdoor Hammocks: Swing Into Summer With Style

May 8th, 2009    Subscribe To Our Feed

Outdoor hammocks never went out of style in my book…but I think the author of this news story was taking a little poetic license in the title. A nice article in the DailyJournal.com (NJ, USA) about the popularity of backyard hammocks. People are looking for low-cost ways to beat stress without going on pricey trips or overpriced movie outings. There’s no better way to relax and forget about life’s struggles for a moment or three than swinging outdoors in a hammock. Whether hung from two trees or a hammock stand, outdoor hammocks are perfect for whenever you need to take a break.

Catch The “Wave”…Hammock

March 26th, 2009    Subscribe To Our Feed

Every now and then it’s interesting to see what ideas designers have when they’re taking fresh looks at everyday things…like hammocks. This is a concept called the Wave Hammock, and it was created by Swedish designers Erik Nyberg and Gustav Ström for Belgian outdoor furniture manufacturer Royal Botania. With its sweeping arc of a canopy, it looks like a modern sculpture.

The Wave Hammock

According to the designers, the Wave should “convey the feeling of lying underneath the canopy of a tree, surrounded by a defined, natural space, forming both a sculpture and an inviting and luxurious outdoor furniture.” The canopy fabric is perforated and semi-transparent, yet is said to block 86% of the sun’s rays. Frame is polished stainless steel. An interesting design! I cannot find a price for the Wave Hammock, so take your best guess….

Hanging A Hammock From A Tree? Make Sure The Tree Is Sound and Strong

March 21st, 2009    Subscribe To Our Feed

We all know and love the idyllic image of hanging a hammock from a pair of stout trees. Please choose your hammock tree supports carefully when hanging a hammock. This large Nicaraguan hammock with fringe features a spreader bar and is suspended using separately available tree straps.That shade-dappled haven calls us like a siren to come and hang out for a while. But even if your hammock’s been hanging from that tree like forever, you must check the tree every year for soundness and stability. Tragically that lesson was brought home in Bromfield MA this week when a mother and 15-year-old daughter were critically injured in a freak backyard accident. The pair were resting in a hammock suspended between trees after doing yardwork. Unknown to them, a 24-inch diameter tree supporting the hammock had rotted over the winter. It fell, pinning them underneath it. The daughter later died from her injuries. The mother is expected to survive. It’s very sad that such a wonderful day spent outdoors together should end so horribly.

The harsh winter has taken a toll on many trees. Here in Georgia the ongoing drought has severely weakened many trees and they can fall in an instant. I’ve got a few on my property (quite smaller than the one in the story) that I’ve literally pushed over with a good shove.

Before you suspend that beautiful hammock from any tree or get into a hammock that’s been hanging from a tree for many seasons, check that tree thoroughly for soundness and stability. Give it a good healthy shove or two. If in doubt, call an arborist to check your trees’ health. Better safe than badly injured or worse. Don’t forget to check the ropes or hammock hanging straps for any signs of decay or wear, and replace them if they’re worn. It’s generally recommended that a tree be at least six to seven inches in diameter to hang a hammock, and that it be a hardwood tree like oak or maple. Check out our previous post for more hammock hanging tips here. Please, before you take that first hammock siesta of the year, check the tree supporting your hammock. Your health and life may indeed hang on it.
