Glowing Swings

Alexander Lervik Makes Gardens Fun

When I saw these pictures, I was totally swung off guard. I am massively jealous of anyone who has one of these glowing swings as they look amazing!

It was created by artist and designer Alexander Lervik and comes equipped with fiber optic sensors that glow in the dark. The best part is that it only lights up when you're actually swinging on it, and not when badgers cross its path like some annoying, hyper-sensitive outdoor lights do. It also creates an amazing laser light show.

This would definitely give any backyard an eerie glow, great for Halloween. Now they just need to go into production so I can buy one!
