Hammocky Easter Egg Hunt

Start Date: 6th April

Closing Date: 13th April

Winners Announced / Prizes sent: 14th April


If you want to win yourself some gorgeous handmade Hammocky Goodies this Easter, it’s time to blow the cobwebs off your magnifying glass and get searching! The Hammocky Easter Bunny has been busy hiding 10 Easter Eggs all over the Hammocky website and each one represents a prize.

Overseas entrants welcome :)

The Rules

  1. There are 10 Easter Eggs hidden around the Hammocky Website. The Easter Eggs are numbered 1 – 10 and each one represents a prize. The list of corresponding Prizes is below.

  2. Some Eggs are well hidden, others are quite obvious.

  3. When you have successfully unearthed one of the Easter Eggs, you will need to click on it to enter the Free Prize Draw for that item. Once clicked, an Email window will open, for you to fill in your details and secure your entry into the Prize Draw for that item. If you do not have an Email Client installed on your PC please click here.

  4. You can choose to find all the Eggs or just one or two, or even just search for the Egg that represents the prize that you particularly want.

  5. Any clues or hints will appear on Twitter throughout the week.

  6. If anyone is caught cheating and giving away locations, the Hammocky Easter Bunny will take his Eggs back and redistribute them. This will not make him a happy bunny – you have been warned!

  7. The Hammocky Easter Hunt ends on Monday 13th April at 11:59pm

  8. The Draws will be held, winners announced, and prizes sent on Tuesday 14th April, with the exception of the Personalised Slumber Tunnel.

Prize List

  1. Blankie

  2. Wash Bag

  3. Corner Hammock

The Hammocky Shop is open again after our unplanned hiatus :)

All orders placed whilst the shop was closed are being worked on as I type and will be dispatched over the coming week.

How to Use A Corner Hammock (or not!)

Have you ever wondered how to use one of our Hammocky Corner Hammocks? Charlie and Jasper have almost got it sussed, although as you will see from the photos below, they haven’t quite learnt the art of sharing yet!

I came across a brilliant Photo Story, posted by Allie, whilst browsing the Guineas Online forum. Allie had recently entered, and won our Hammocky Tweet Treets competition on  Twitter and is now the proud owner of a truly unique Wonky Hammocky Corner Hammock. As you can see from the pigtures below the Piggies love it and don’t seem to have noticed it’s a bit wonky :)

Allie has very kindly given me permission to repost the full Photo Story here, so I’ll hand you over to Allie now :)

Jealous Jasper

Here are a few snaps that I just took of Charlie and Jasper when they were out in the run today. (excuse the poops!)

Here’s the lovely Charlie sitting in his new favourite place:


Here he is again, with Jasper’s nose also in the picture!:

A Big Hammocky Thank you to Allie, Charlie & Jasper for your fantastic Corner Hammock Tutorial :)

The Great Hammocky Treasure Hunt

The Hammocky Hammocks store will reopen on Monday 6th April and to celebrate our relaunch we will be having an Easter Egg Hunt on the website!

So dust off your magnifying glass and get ready for the next Newsletter that will contain all the info you will need to win yourself some gorgeous Hammocky Goodies!

What’s New?

Not a lot as I’ve not had much time to concentrate on HH over the last few months but our range of WashBags has grown to include some incredibly funky new designs and a new size too.

I’ve also added a small range of Heat Pad Covers to the shop, these are much thicker than other covers that are available and they have been designed to include our unique Nibble Detection System to help you keep an eye on any cheeky chewing.
