How to

Ready to start your own Red Swing Project?

The following information is our suggestions for how to hang a red swing. Please follow the instructions in our how-to video below.

*any individual who hangs a red swing accepts responsibility for the safety of that swing.

Here are some important things to remember

  1. Whatever you hang a swing from should be VERY sturdy and parallel to the ground. (safety first)
  2. Choose wood that is thick (1.5 inch) and wide (2 feet) enough for a large adult.
  3. Use half inch diameter rope with minimal ‘stretchiness.’

After the swing is hung, email us at redswingproject@gmail.com with the following information or tag the swing picture on facebook and we will add it to our website.

  1. Where it is hung – (intersection/address, city, state, country)
  2. Pictures of the swing or a link to the pictures elsewhere.

Welcome to the project!

We look forward to collaborating with you.
