Bringing the Fun Back at Home: Hanging Furniture

Sometimes we get fixated on the rules of design that we forget to have fun in our own home. I like to have a beautiful space, but also don't want my home to be too serious. Recently, I have had major envy for homes with indoor swings. Also, who doesn't love hanging rattan chairs? The fun continues in the bedroom (no pun intended) with hanging beds.

I would love to receive any feedback on the hanging bed. Does anyone know if it stays pretty still or does it swing?

So whimsical and fun! Love them all!

Those pillows! Waaaaaant. Where can I get?

You should have included the Small Cool entry with the hammock!

The last one freaks me out a bit (mostly the way the photo is staged), BUT the first picture shows AT is reading my mind today. I have been dying for some hanging chairs in my living room behind my sofa. I want SO BAD.

venusinbleujeans - those pillows are Jonathan Adler

the pillows are under design your own not regular stocked item, so you can choose your own colors pretty cool

I love that hanging side table, but I'd be nervous about putting anything breakable or spillable on it.

will definitely be hanging side tables! but only after my 2 boys are a bit older.

Oh this is exciting! I've been looking for inspiration for the space around our family room fireplace -- mixed with throw pillows and low profile tables, this could be the answer.
