Struggling with choosing just the right gift for Mom this year? Looking for something that isn't the same old, same old? Consider a beautiful hammock where she can unwind on those summer evenings with a good book.

Create a little getaway spot in your backyard.

Wooden posts are a good substitute if you don't have two trees close enough to each other — or any trees at all! Make sure that your posts are at least 4"x4", or larger. Your posts will need to be placed at least two feet in the ground, and surrounded by at least eight inches of concrete in order to ensure a stable support system. If you live in a climate that frosts in the winter, make sure the bottom of the hole for your posts is wider than the top. This will prevent frost heaving.

Objection: A hammock doesn't work with my pretty decor.Reality: Want a place to relax, but don't want to give up your intricate laces and frilly decor? No worries — this beautifully designed hammock has the best of both worlds for you. Give a nod to the floral designs on the pillow prints by attaching the hammock to a vine-covered post. Clematis is a great choice, with a wide range of pinks, purples and whites to choose from and a graceful twining habit. Other vines might take over your hammock, but clematis will grow peacefully and stay in its place.

Chill. Take in the pleasures of the August garden: read a book, play some music and take a nap.More:Planting guides for your California gardenBrowse flowers, plants and garden design ideas

9. String a white hammock. Got a lot of color in your flower borders? White goes with everything, and a traditional rope hammock is a practical way to enjoy the scenery. It's also easy to take down and store at the end of the season.
