Porch Swing Memories Are Back In Style With Outdoor Patio Swings

We have fond memories when we think back to the days when we sat on the porch swing, slowly swaying back and forth, with our grandmother, as we sipped on a cool glass of lemonade, chatting with those who were strolling by. Today, outdoor patio swings can are constructed with wood, wicker, cloth, and plastic, including the heavier wrought iron. The choice of style is endless, as we choose our swing to fit our decor and space whether you prefer the freestanding or glider style.

Most of us have lawn chairs made with that scratchy webbing, having to constantly move in order to avoid the evening sun. Malin has a great solution with a single seater swing with a cushioned seat, in a variety of colors, supported by powder coated steel tubing. A cute little canopy top is attached. Double seaters are available as well, also with an overhead canopy. Malin also has a variety of cloth, and wicker styles seating 2-3 people with or without the overhead canopies.

The glider is also an great alternative, adding a decorative touch especially if you prefer that wooden park bench style. You will love this Great American Woodies Classic 5-foot Red Cedar Glider which is handcrafted from kiln dried red cedar. It ill hold up to 3 people with a total weight capacity of 500 pounds. If you like the vintage look of wrought iron, you will certainly enjoy the O.S. Lee Lee 955-3GF Three Seat Sofa Glider O.W. Lee provides the wrought iron look with thick cushions for added comfort.

Certainly, the outdoor patio swing will be a welcomed addition to the children's playground area. Home Depot has a variety of rubber and plastic single seat swings which can be attached to a swing set. One great choice meant for any child from 9 months to 3 years of age up to 55 pounds, s the Timber-Bilt Forest Green Child Seat. Model #: TB 1522, priced at less than $30. For the active child, the ORB-Xt Disc Swing with a 360 degree spinning capacity, will be a welcomed addition to any play area. Model #: TB 1525 Weight Capacity: 115 pounds. Although the choices are endless in replacing some fond memories with the versatility and comfort of the new style of swing, most manufactures continue providing the authentic porch swing, as well as the hammock we use to love to curl up in with a good book. Regardless of your choice of style, or decor, there definitely is great outdoor patio swing for you to sit back and relax, sliding back and forth, or swinging to and fro, while creating new memories.
