DIY Baby and Toddler Canvas Swing

Here’s a quick tutorial on how to create a beautiful, minimalist canvas swing for your baby or toddler. As usual this is an easy DIY suitable for beginners at sewing as well. I am pretty confident regarding the sewing part; however, this project requires some drilling, sawing and sanding as well. I don’t consider myself a handyman and yet we made it work. This DIY is inspired by @abesutifulmess
All of the information will be up on my blog soon, until then, feel free to pause the video at any time.
The Canvas Fabric is from Snaply.de
Everything else we ordered from Hornbach T
The wooden beads are from wearesadingo on amazon
Swing attachment HomeMall Schaukelbefestigung (amazon.de)

Hi! Just started making this and I'm super excited. One question though, are the measurements for the pillow right? When you folded it in half, yours looks like a rectangle and mine looks like a square. I double checked the measurements and I even made it half an inch bigger, but it's still not big enough. thanks.

[@OwlipopDIY]

Hi 😊 thanks for pointing that out. It really is a bit misleading. The measurements are correct but you need two of those panels. Pin them together right sides facing each other and sew them. I ended up cutting out a long piece that I‘ve folded in half but I should have had 2 pieces in the video as well!

[@sorenaaguirre1773]

@@OwlipopDIY gotcha! I ended up going with it so I guess I got it right! Haha. Thank you so much for posting! My little guy loves the swing! Another question, would you say canvas is the strongest fabric you can use? Or can you use another regular type of fabric? Is there any chance it’ll rip?

[@sonjazukic6636]

approximately how long does it take for the sewing part?

I just completed this! My first time sewing since I was a teenager. 20 years ago. However mine doesn’t look like yours it’s gaping more at the back. Oh well, my little one loves it and super proud of myself

[@TheRose5357]

I love this and you are fantastic at explaining... 👍

[@OwlipopDIY]

Thank you🧡

[@abegailsamaniego3914]

Nice thank you for this tutorial

[@sewdat]

So cute ❤️

[@user-kt6xr9xx4i]

The only thing I'd like added to the video is an image planning the most efficient use of new fabric! As in, how to lay out the pieces so there's as little fabric waste as possible

[@pamelavandegrift7765]

Watched 3 videos and yours is by far the best. Thank you. I am going to make this for my grandson. About what weight can it hold?

[@babakkashefi]

so good tnx girl

[@shaileshsalvi248]

Extremely useful although I didn't follow the process but it looks the same n very nice 👍

[@almalicious18]

great tutorial! ❤ can i just ask you ... what are the measurements of wooden beads? what size to buy (and with enough large wholes in it) and where to buy them? 😊 i don't have a clue, where to look for those. thank you! 🍀

[@albcaralvarez6158]

Muy útil Gracias

[@mkjones828]

This is one of the BEST diy tutorials I've seen. Thank you VERY much for posting! I'm going to make one for my first grandchild, he is now 3 months 💙 Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

[@OwlipopDIY]

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️ I hope he enjoys his new swing 😊

[@vanesatellechea3822]

I loved this video! Do you know how much weight can hold?

[@sonjamoore4792]

Great project to follow - I made one for my grandson. I managed most things myself, including the drilling. However, I asked someone to saw the wooden dowels for me. I would love to share a pic or video of my swing, but don't think they can be uploaded here.

[@thatssewlexie5705]

Ooooo I love this!

[@annicerader6021]

I made this project and it took me about 2hrs start to finish. Haven't done the dowels yet. Super simple project 🥰

[@mdmg55mm]

Good job 👏🏻👏🏻

[@estheribanez7630]

Buenas tardes ,me encantó el tutorial ,una pregunta...Para cuantos meses del bebe son esas medidas porque necesito hacer una para mi nietita de 7meses y tengo miedo que la parte donde van las piernitas sea demasiado grande y pueda deslizarse . Gracias .

[@R4J2004]

Super

[@GeninhaBraga]

lindo!

[@belengrimoldi7360]

Hi! Thanks for de video tutorial! I love the finish product and the video is really clear and easy to follow. I have a question, whay kind of thread did you use? Is it a cotton thread or nylon? Again...thank you! Great job! ❤

[@OwlipopDIY]

Hi, I‘ve used nylon rope, I think it can hold more weight 😊

[@belengrimoldi7360]

@@OwlipopDIY thank you!! 😊

[@sonjazukic6636]

approximately how long does it take for the sewing part?

[@thespia]

I might have missed it...what is the seam allowance?

[@annak804]

I'm probably going to end up doing this with thick-ish branches and hide

[@amberharlan4898]

So about 1 and 2/3rds yard?

[@jesaljaggi1112]

How much weight this swing can take?

[@dagmark5239]

Las PULGADAS hace como 100 años son OBSOLETAS. El SISTEMA de MEDIDAS UNIVERSAL es el METRO, compuesto de CENTÍMETROS. NO es posible que un país desarrollado TODAVÍA esté ATRASADO usando PULDADAS. Es imperdonable. NO promuebas ese atraso, explica SOLO en CENTÍMETROS.
