The Hammock Company, New Hammock Resource Center

Following the recent trend of creating an oasis of relaxation in the house or garden, a hammock Resource Center was created. Located at www.hammock-company.com/hammock-tips.asp, the new Hammock Resource Center features articles on how to buy a hammock or a hammock stand, instructional videos on use and care, a photo contest, a hammock art page, various info on the history of hammocks, coupons for interested buyers, Feng Shui tips, and over 50 answers to other hammock and swing related questions. Mr. J.R. Pelletier, owner of The Hammock Company, explains, “This hammock resource center came from the need to gather all information under one location. Hammocks are seen by the public more and more, and the public interest is constantly growing. It is a fun product and people want to learn more about it”.

The Hammock Resource Center covers every aspect of hammock purchasing to ownership to care, including the distance needed between trees or posts to hang a hammock, different rope choices available, the numerous hammock styles available, the difference between a Mayan and a Brazilian hammock, and even what to consider when buying a hammock as a gift. Many people love to give hammocks as a gift as it is a nice way to provide the recipient with a way to lay back and take a breather. While buying a hammock is a great idea; it is important to make sure that the recipient has a place to put the hammock. If they lack those perfectly placed trees for hanging, a hammock stand will be needed. Hammock and stand combinations also can solve this dilemma. Deciding on which hammock and stand will work the best takes a little time and research. That is where the Hammock Resouce Center comes in handy. Once you have found that perfect hammock, it's all rest and relaxation from there on!

Also part of this Hammock Resource Center is a link to a new line of outdoor rugs made from a revolutionary new outdoor yarn, DuraCord®. These hand hooked outdoor rugs are colorfast, as soft as cotton, and easily cleaned with a bleach and water solution. DuraCord® yarns are also used in the construction of weather resistant rope and fabric hammocks as well.
