About Macrame Workshop

During the workshop you will be guided through the macrame knots and principles, with step-by-step support, to then combine different techniques and knots to create your very own macrame plant hanger.

Feel free to bring along any trinkets, drift wood, or beads you would like to incorporate in your design.

By the end of the workshop, you will have a new found grasp of the calming craft Macrame, along with your newly finished plant hanger to take home and admire. You'll also have a booklet of the knots you covered, along with the know how to continue your new hobby at home.

This Workshop will be hosted by Sculptur and Macrame artist Lucy Wayman
