Hi all! 

I got a macrame camera strap however the clasp broke. On trying to replace it with another one, I found I can’t actually get anything into the hole on the end. 

Is there any way to fix this to add another ring/clasp into this part? 

I don’t know anything about macrame so sorry if this was explained badly! Tia for any ideas.

Hi! I want to recreate these knots but i wonder if there is a name for them that I could look up to figure out how to do it? I’m a complete beginner 😔 so not sure how to figure it out myself.

Hanging cat bed, made a few mistakes but overall I’m happy. Been super depressed lately and this has kept me busy.

Another lighted hanger I just finished 

t3_1ggj40w

I say "first" as I've made one super basic one before this that is honestly what got me interested in trying something a little more knotty. So I claim this as my first real plant hanger. I'm pretty happy with the results, definitely not perfect, but I think my mom will like it, especially when I gift her better ones over time. She'll love to see the progress.

My "First" Macrame Project 

Set of necklace and bracelet with green quartz and beads

Making this stuff takes me hours. Then taking pictures and making listing's take a lot of time as well. If I manage to sell any - presentable packaging and walking to the post office takes time. 
I have one way beef with Etsy and as far as I've researched, it's very hard to sell things there anyway since it's flooded with cheap stuff from dropshippers. Same with ebay, but ebay doesn't take money from me before I manage to sell something. 
I'm just wasting so much time already and then thinking of how much time I would have to spend advertising on social media... just the idea alone makes me exhausted especially not knowing if it would even help to increase sales. 
So far I'm making less than 3£ profit on one item. Considering how many hours that one sale has taken me.... and if the minimum hourly wage is supposed to be 10£+.... 
At this point all I'm trying to do is earn back the money I've spent on materials (and packaging) because I just love making this stuff and have to get rid of it somehow. I don't have enough plants for the amount of hangers I've made 🤣 
Is anyone else doing this to earn money? Any tips? Maybe some stories from experience? It's hard to believe the things I make are so bad, no one would like them, when most handmade macrame items on ebay don't look much better. I've seen people sell hangers that take half an hour at best and they've sold 50+ items, so I'm not sure what is the problem with my items.

Competing with cheap stuff from 3rd world countries is hard. 

What type of knots are these? 

When you melt polyester cord to secure your knots, do you leave a big bulge at the end before the knot or do you press the melted part over the knot? When I melt the cord, is seems the options are: 
- have a big bulge before the knot,
- press the melted end to try to cover the area the end comes out of the knot, or
- press the melted end to cover part of the knot. 

Which do you do? What would you recommend? 

Thanks so much for your help! 
(Please ignore the splotches of hair dye on my fingernails.)

Hi !!

i've recently been interested in wanting to learn micro macrame to make jewelry similar to the photos above, and i was wondering what a good starting point for a beginner would be as well as some pointers for thread/cord. 

Thank you :)

I made this and am pretty happy with it. I’m specifically using this for a plant light. It looks great with the light off, but when it’s on, too much really bright light comes out the sides. Does anyone have any suggestions for a liner?

Do you line your lampshades?

Hi all! 🫶
Thought l'd show you a few pieces I made recently!  ✨
Most of my pieces are inspired by spirituality & nature, but I especially love this period of the year when I can get super witchy with my artwork. 🔮

I’m also still a beginner so it’s kinda messy but I love her. I’d like to have them go to the floor ideally.

Running out of cord! How can I add more seamlessly? 

Tried basic macrame for the first time :D made a necklace, my back hurts, and it's not very good but i still like it 

I'm so happy how they turned out 🥰 should I make more?

I haven’t created anything in over two years but every time I see my pieces in my own home I feel proud.

One of my most favorite creations ever - so simple but I love it. 

I started out following YouTube tutorials. 

If you’re interested, I found a similar design in a video. I am not affiliated with this person in any way, but I enjoy their step by step process.   

Please check it out if you’re just starting out ☺️
