We love the egg chair revival. We began our journey back to the past with our article on Outdoor Egg Chairs a few weeks ago, and we can’t wait to show you what we’ve found this time.
Hanging egg chairs add a sense of individualist style to a room like no other piece of furniture can. They can go in the living room, bedroom, or even outside on the patio or in the garden. They can go retro or project a modern flair depending upon the design.
Either way, what we’re saying is that they’re a great addition to your space.

Best Hanging Egg Chair FAQ
How do you hang a hanging chair?
Hanging chairs are designed to either hang from the ceiling or a stand.
How you hang an egg chair from the ceiling all depends upon your space, what’s comfortable for your size, your comfort level, and your safety.
Hanging an egg chair on a stand is usually pretty straightforward, as the stand has a fixed height anyway. Other styles may require special hardware or professional installation from a ceiling joist. For a tutorial on how to hang a hanging chair, click here.
Are hanging chairs safe?
As long as you follow the weight capacity guidelines and follow the instructions to the letter. If you’re hanging a ceiling chair, you can check out the tutorial above. Still, for the safest option, we recommend turning to a professional.
Also, hanging egg chairs aren’t meant to be used as swings, so make sure to give the kiddos in your house the “It’s NOT a TOY, for cryin’ out loud!” speech. (Also, tell them to get outta your seat. You’ve got some reading to catch up on. Or Candy Crush. You do you.)
Can I buy a frame for a chair meant to hang from the ceiling?
Yes! You can purchase a frame to use with a ceiling-style egg chair. Usually, these frames are sold anywhere you can buy an egg chair. Just double-check that the measurements work so your feet don’t drag on the ground like a grownup on a swing set.
Do I need a professional to install my hanging chair?
If you’re hanging it from the ceiling, probably. It all depends on how handy you are and how confident you are in your abilities. We’re all about self-empowerment, and we have faith that you can do all the stuff with all the tools if you put your mind to it, BUT these absolutely up to you. Use your best judgment.
Hang Out and Relax for a While
There’s a reason that babies (usually) love to chill in their little swings with the twinkly music it’s just so soothing. Your new hanging egg chair will be too, so take a cup of tea and a cozy throw blankie with you and settle in. Just don’t doze off with a cup of hot tea in your lap!
