Two Person Hammocks ? Snuggle With Your Beau in Style

How many of you take the time to just relax in a hammock? When I even think of a hammock, I just want to fall asleep. A single person hammock is great but two person hammocks are even better. Snuggle up with your beau and watch the clouds role by, or have a picnic included in your outdoor entertaining. The sophistication of a hammock today is like owning casual living furniture. The hammocks of today don't have to be some knots tied together. Hammocks for two enable you to take a little mini-vacation anytime you want. Some styles of interest for this hot trend in casual furniture are:

? Hammacher Schlemmer offers a durable two person hammock that is washable. This isn't the norm, but the spreader bars are removable
? Nikamaca® offers no bar, crocheted family size hammock that is poly-cotton in white or natural
? Slumberjack offers a two person hammock that sets up in minutes. It's 100 % cotton rope with spreader bars
? The Islander two person hammock is 100 % cotton crochet and macramé hand work
? The Presidential polyrope hammock by Pawley's Island is large enough for a small family. It is 100 % spun polyester rope.
? Brazilian hammocks are known for their comfort and beauty. Handcrafted of Brazilian cotton have no spreader bars, they sleep on them diagonally so the hammock creates a flatter surface
? Don't limit your two person hammock to the outdoors. There are many beautiful styles available for a bedroom or family room too. How romantic would your two person hammock be beside the sliding doors overlooking the ocean
? Try a quilted hammock. This soft padded fabric is far better than the scratchy rope styles
? If you must keep a rope hammock, try getting a hammock pad for better comfort

When it comes to hanging a hammock, what are your alternatives if you don't have trees available? You can have any size hammock stand that will hold your two person hammock just fine. They are great for poolside or to take with you to the beach. They will assemble in about an hour and go anywhere you want them to go. Move them around as the sun moves in the backyard. Many like to get a tan in the sun, but if you like to snooze in the shade like I do; let your hammock be under the trees. If you decide a two person hammock or even single hammock is not for you, try a hammock chair. These can be suspended from a porch or the eaves of a home. If you decide a hammock is what you want for your backyard, why go with a single hammock when hammocks for two are so much more versatile and fun.

Casual furniture for easy living comes in many shapes and styles, a hammock may be just the thing you are looking for. If hammocks are a little too casual for your taste, there is a whole host of casual living furniture available for your patio and backyard. You can find just what you need online; or shop the nearest home and garden store for the perfect casual patio set. When you are planning the look of your patio, be aware of the soft curve a hammock presents. If you have strong lines in patio furniture or sharp angles, a hammock will give you the right softness to curb those sharp points and angles. You'd be surprised the pleasant form a hammock will give your backyard. Hammocks are beautiful, comfortable and a nice piece of "furniture". Take advantage of the differences in size and just relax and watch the clouds role by.
