How to Make a Homemade Stuffed Animal Holder for Kid's Room

A homemade hammock will serve as an attractive and efficient stuffed animal holder for a kid's room. By suspending the hammock from the ceiling of the bedroom, unused space is utilized, keeping valuable floor space clear. The hammock animal holder can be tailored to match the color scheme of the room. By using a colorful re-purposed tablecloth for the hammock, no time-consuming hemming is needed.
