Find Your Secret Spot and Hang This Cool DIY Tree Swing!

This is easy peasy!  This takes me back to when I was a little girl.  I used to love swinging as a child so I decided I needed a swing! Why not?  I’ve enjoyed many hours swinging from my tree in my back yard.  It’s such a peaceful feeling swinging with the wind in my hair.  It takes me back to some great childhood memories at my grandparents.  We had a treehouse too.  Wonderful times were had and memories that matched.

All you need is a hand saw, sandpaper, a drill, rope paint and brush…oh, and the chair of course!  Start by sawing off the legs of the chair.  Then drill 4 holes (for the rope). Sand the chair to remove the distressed paint and give your chair a fresh coat of paint and let dry.  Bend your rope in a loop and make a slip knot, doing this four times and pulling the unknotted end through the holes. Then tie your rope around the tree branch!
