SWING Low...

"This is my swing set.  This is my sand box. 
I'm not allowed to go in the deep end."

SUMMER is officially UPON us.
And
it is HOT, HOT, hot here in the South! 

AND
There is just NO way to ENJOY the outside 
right NOW without
getting sweaty or getting CREATIVE.

 
So it had me THINKING...

Back in the DAY,  
on the ol' PLAYGROUND,
we used to HIT the SWING set
 to get a BREEZE flowing through the AIR.

Oh the fun...


Not to mention the TIRE swing
(a.k.a. step BROTHER to the original SWING)....

Which created A BIT more of a RISKIER  
endeavour for the POTENTIAL SUMMER cool Down...
(i.e. getting stuck in the HOLE and/or
 BARFING from SPINNING in circles)

ALL things CONSIDERED,
the SWING has now BECOME a TRENDY and functional
FIXTURE for the HOME


Check out these TRADITIONAL and
NOT so traditional uses...

NO...BUT a SUPER stylish PORCH indeed!

(and if YOU have NO idea what I'm talking about...
CHECK out the Neshoba County FAIR!
 A MISSISSIPPI tradition!)

"HAPPY CHIC" room!

MY most FAVORITE swing... It is HUGE!

AND Who's the CHICK on the SWING?
 The Nashville, Tennessee DESIGNER,
 Rachel Halvorson.

a SWINGING BED?  LOVE it!
I wonder if THERE is a WEIGHT limit?


 
+++




PATRIOTIC and CLASSIC!


 
+++




WHAT I would DO to be on this
 BEACH SWING right NOW!


 
+++

 


ADORABLE!
 MY heart is SMILING!

OH to be a CHILD again! 
GUESS I will just HAVE to PRETEND!

HAPPY SWINGING!
