[@jessicar802]

The only thing that's not relaxing is trying to get the string through the bead 😂

[@LapsofMaps]

Thank you for this tutorial! I travel Australia full-time, and this is an awesome craft hobby to do in the bush.

[@doreenwatson-read]

I have done macrame for years, but I've not bothered to work out how you make a net that doesn't have a tassel at the bottom. I learn something new, thankyou

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou! Yay, I'm so happy it helped :)

[@miint_8698]

this is such a calming and relaxing video I mean this is just so peaceful! I mean your energy is so "let's not rush it" and I think we all need that sometimes :) and the fact that you're not editing away or speeding up the knotting process is just really nice to watch, you're really not rushing it and its the best and most needed thing ever :)) thanks for the video!

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou so much for your kind words, they really mean the word to me ❤️ big love

[@totemraven]

Your voice is so calming and you just give off this warm comforting energy

[@oceanexpressions]

You're so kind ❤️ I recently made a guided meditation kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHLHl56hjt9mmqM let me know what you think/ if I should make more ❤ big love

[@Jimmy_NinersFaithful]

Honey, you are amazing! After years of the basic knots I tried different methods of wrapping crystals and never succeeding. I'd all but given up until coming across your video. It is clear and understandable, easy to follow. You are a wonderful teacher! Barely 8 minutes in (no fast forwarding) and what I've so far accomplished fits all of my few acquired gemstones. Thank you!

[@oceanexpressions]

This makes me so happy!! I'm so glad it helped ❤️ I'd love to see your creations, if you have instagram you can tag @ocean_expressions ❤️ big love

[@thesphinxthinks8291]

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou for your kind words ❤ big love

[@deebochaton3354]

Just found this video, thank you for the tip about using the scissors to adjust the size of the bead, so simple but really useful to know.

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou! I'm glad you found it useful ❤️ big love

[@pupasmr]

the only tutorial ive EVER been able to successfully follow! thank you!

[@bestforlastchar]

I watched quite a few for a few moments but your necklaces were the better ones to make and I loved your video. A+

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou ❤

[@BlahBlahs1000]

I love you. Now that's out of the way...I'm ex-military and I collected a huge list of stones for protection from negative vibrations and another for financial success. I used your video for the basic instruction. Yet, I needed a gem net big enough to hold over 13 stones at once so I tripled your technique so it would hold all of them at once lol. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. I needed mine to be manly, so I used paracord instead hahaha. Then to make it more accessible, I added a slipknot so I can open it up to add or change the gems. All together it is the size of a tangerine now. Again, I just wanted to say thanks and to let you know your voice is very soothing and Zen like. Your aura is beautiful and your tone is almost a perfect positive vibration and frequency. Godspeed. I wish you the best.

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou so much for your kind words, they really mean the world to me ❤️ and I would live to see your creation!! If you have instagram you can tag @ocean_expressions Big love

[@nesar2858]

You are the best video I have seen on You tube to teach that stone cage method. Your way of doing it is so much easier to understand. I was able to make one. All Other videos were confusing. You kind of remind me of a younger hippie girl from the 70’s.Macrame was very popular back then.Hippie girls were the best at macrame. Good job! You are a fantastic teacher. I love love it!

I watched your video last night and thought about it all night. I went out today and bought the stuff to make some basket necklaces for the agates that I tumble. This is a perfect way to make a necklace. You did an outstanding job on showing how to make them. It really is relaxing and helps me with my anxiety. Thank you so much for doing this video. Plus you have a very relaxing and sweet voice. Keep up the great work.

[@lesliebray8114]

[@lisamh9037]

This was fantastic. Wanted to make one for my daughter and I've only recently been getting crafty. (I'm 59! But found out last year I have ADHD, which explains why I never thought I had time or energy to do crafts. Also explains my entire life! Haha). Anyway the first video I found used a robot voice and I was climbing the walls trying to get through it. Today I stumbled on you - a soft spoken little fairy girl... And you made it calm and simple, joyful, and even healing. Adding you and your special tutorial to things I am grateful for today. I don't want to spoil the surprise gift for my daughter... but I want to share your video with her! She would so vibe with you, and all you give us in your video. Peace, little one.

[@oceanexpressions]

Thankyou so much ❤️ that means the world to me, I have ADHD too, I feel you!! Sending you big love ❤️

Hi Ocean Expressions 👋I see your across the ditch - hope all is going well for you and your Loved One's for 2023. I love your creative content, thanks. Here's a small tip : 4 braid - braid/plait as normal for 3 plait and the 4th strand you weave it under - it sits beautifully and strengthens your art piece. Good luck from NZ 🌞🇳🇿
