DIY Porch Swing with Crib Mattress – Easy X-Frame Build

I built this DIY porch swing with a simple X-frame and a crib mattress for the seat. The top photo shows the frame coming together in the workshop, then we hung it on our white porch with thick rope. It’s a sturdy beginner woodworking project that looks great with striped pillows and a black cushion. Save this for your next weekend build!
