    Grandkids picked up Easter hammocks


    Started and finished these a while back. Gathered end 10' hammocks in hot pink and robins egg blue. 8 X 10 tarps in hot pink and blaze orange. Daisy chain straps. I thought that would be simpler. Snake skins for the tarps. I made little bags for the sides like the ENO hammocks for their goodies. I used orange thread throughout and pink reflective cord for tarp ridge line and guy lines Orange shock cord also on tarp lines. Orange denema for the tarp tie outs and ridge line loops. Orange tarp stakes. Blue straps for the blue hammock and black and orange for the pink. Very Easter looking. They were pretty excited about them, they wore the last ones out. My daughter wanted the orange tarp she said she didn't think she could lay under that pink very long but they are actually very nice looking. The light through the pink made the robins egg blue look purple. My daughter was blown away by how good the colors looked together. Didn't have enough trees for the orange tarp.

    Nicely done. All I ever got for Easter was chocolate and stuffed animals, I'm jealous. Looks like the grandkids appreciate the gifts.

    Good job and cute kids!

    I've noticed that kids in hammocks are always smiling...there must be something to that...
