Easy Macramé Plant Hanger: Step-by-Step with Photos

Creating your own macramé plant hanger is a rewarding and enjoyable project that adds a touch of charm to any space. This guide will take you through the process step-by-step, complete with photos to ensure your success.

Materials Needed:

• 4 lengths of macramé cord, each measuring 2.5 metres
• A sturdy wooden or metal ring (20 cm diameter)
• A pair of scissors
• A measuring tape

Step 1: Preparing the Cord
Begin by cutting your cords to the desired length. For this project, 2.5 metres works perfectly. Take your first cord and fold it in half, creating a loop at the top. Attach this to your ring, ensuring the loop is secure.

Step 2: Knotting the Base
With the remaining cords, repeat the process, attaching them to the ring in the same manner. Once all cords are attached, it’s time to form the base. Start with a square knot by taking the left cord over the middle cords and under the right cord, then follow through by placing the right cord over the middle and under the left.

Step 3: Creating the Hanger
Continue knotting downwards, leaving a few inches between knots. This will create the beautiful cascading effect. You can experiment with different knot styles to add variety and personal flair to your design.

Step 4: Finishing Touches
Once you reach the desired length, trim the ends of the cords to create a neat finish. You might opt for a straight cut or a more bohemian frayed look, depending on your style.
