Rope Swings

Visiting my Grandma and Grandpa May's home growing up they had the best rope swing. We spent hours on that wonderful thing. The kids have (or I have) been dying for a swing set, so we made our own swings! They were SUPER easy and the kids love them! And we do too!

How we did it:

I first bought two stools from DI for $4 each and 30 feet of rope from Home Depot (58 cents a foot)

Then we borrowed a drill from our kind neighbor and drilled a nice hole in the middle of the tops

We popped the tops off the stools, used a nice knot around the tree and under the seat. We burnt and duct taped the rope so it wouldn't fray and here they are! They were about $13 each, and they are way more durable then a similar item I found for $20.

Happy Wednesday!
