How To: DIY Macrame Market Bag [Easy]

[@loryvettee]

Those run for like about $50 or even higher. I can't believe how easy it is to diy it. Thanks Emily 💕you always have our back 🤘🏼

[@matrixdude01]

You can get 4 packs for less than $40 with free shipping here: www.digfordeals.com/macramhangers

[@AuroraLaurialis]

@@matrixdude01 or you could make all 4 of them with 6$ worth of cord... also, those are plant holders, she made a grocery bag in the video.

[@sweetheart101227]

Right! It looks so simple!

[@erikahaas9424]

@@AuroraLaurialisdefinitely NOT $6 in cord, and DEFINITELY not for 4…

[@erikahaas9424]

@@AuroraLaurialisif you buy the a cheapest Cord (loosing quality at this point) you’re still looking at $4-5 per bag. That is definitely still better than paying $40/50, but the crafters time & effort is valuable too. 🤷‍♀️

[@realgabiakagilabear5112]

Beautiful bag! I love it! One thing I would change is use some e6000 or Fabri-Tac on those final knots just to secure them. Maybe overkill but it would ease my mind. I hate it when my world comes undone. lol!

[@MiraByler]

Oh wow! I love this! I've been trying to cut out single-use plastics, and have a few reusable grocery bags. These would be perfect for produce! Definitely have to get some macrame cord now. Thanks for sharing. :)

[@shandakeefer4473]

Or you could use the plastic bags to make the macrame cord...

[@moriahseletzky6180]

This is the type of thing I would buy at a farmer market to put stuff I would buy at a farmers market in haha

[@EmilyFaith]

Moriah Seletzky hahahahaha

[@jaminejedly3297]

Love the bag. Will be starting it tomorrow. Have cord, will knot. LOL Finally a tutorial that is easy to follow. Thanks so much!

[@abigailconlon3147]

I did 10 rows that were 1 inch apart and it turned out really well because it was just a little bit bigger and there were less scraps also!

[@autumnespresso]

This is by far the most easy yet still beautiful tutorial for a macrame bag I have seen! Thank you! I will try this out soon!

[@cocco31]

My first contact with macrame... and this video is just perfect!! Makes me want to go and tie some knots right away! I will definitely give this a try. Thank you so much!

[@saunyaboutot-rodriguez3955]

That is so beautiful! I'm gonna make a few of them this week! My daughter and her friend are about to go travel overseas for a year and these would be awesome for them! Thx for sharing! Stay safe!

[@alexispape3687]

That sounds so fun!! How did they turn out I’m so excited to make mine!

[@coolcatwill]

Love the bag! I'll have to try this one Also, a quick hack to sharpen your scissors in a pinch: cut through a few layers of aluminum foil. I usually get about a foot of foil and fol it until it's the length of my scissors, then I just cut all the way down the width of the foil.

[@cristiethielebeule5763]

This is just the video I was looking for today, thank you. I will be making several😊

[@emfrak]

I found your channel through a pinterest '50 irresistible diys'! Looks like I'll have to binge watch and start crafting!

[@EmilyFaith]

Emily Fraki oh yaaay

[@vannacarter6]

holy crap this was wayyyyy easier than i expected, great tutorial!!

[@maryheil2557]

Thank you for the tutorial. I almost bought a market bag, but I couldn't find one I liked and they are so expensive. This pattern is so cute.

[@sadhanashannagoberdhan7468]

Beautiful. I will definitely try this very soon. Thanks

[@blue-tw4dy]

Ma sei proprio bravissima complimenti 🥰🥰🥰

[@MariePlocharz]

Cute and simple. I used 1" wide, natural colored cotton webbing for the handle. I hand-stitched the ends together with a small overlap and covered the joined strap ends with the initial row of knots. I used fray check on the final knots at the bottom. I fray checked before trimming. Allowed it to dry, trimmed the ends close and fray checked them again.

[@EmilyFaith]

You are a master!! I'll have to keep those tips in mind for the future!

[@sarahcinderellabeth]

I just bought the cord! I’m so excited to make this! 🙌

[@annabellefrey5219]

[@April4YHWH]

So VERY knotty! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist) I vividly recall learning macrame in elementary school. I should revisit the craft. Great bag & video!

[@anajulaly]

Thanks a lot, I'm gonna make this tomorrow for my partners fruit and veg in her van!

[@abigailconlon3147]

Love it! Can you use wooden rings as the handles instead?

[@thediennersisters4258]

Thanks for this!

[@ibkristykat]

i would rather make the handles out of the macrame cord by making it into a twisted rope than use a hotglue gun glued lace... it just feels like the handle won't fall apart if it's a 'rope'.

[@EmilyFaith]

ibkristykat totally! The handle can be made in so many ways 😊

[@magowiee]

how to do that?

[@shivanidudyala770]

@@magowiee it's similar to a square knot. u know how you have to do the knot two times (once on the left, once on the right) for a square knot? basically, for a twisted rope just do the knot on one side continuously. it's the spiral knot in the video link below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYeQc4msrLOYeKs

[@gayloncblythe8298]

You could always machine stitch the handles

[@martinamanzanero9660]

Can you tell me how long this bag is? I am trying to figure out how much cord to cut for the size I want to make! I love this video, btw. Finally a macrame bag that I understand how to do! Lol

[@ctrlaltdel1269]

I just watched your kallax hack. Thank you!! I have the hinges on my ugly kitchen cabinets!! Thank you for sharing!

[@lamoinette23]

i know everyone doesn't have a sewing machine but it would only take a few minutes to properly stitch the handles together to prevent fraying.. js.

[@barbaracole4314]

Really nice, I like it, think i can do this ,it's easier than the one i made before.

[@mjCAS]

Hi Emily me encantan tus vídeos

[@nathandrake360]

Awesome project. Unfortunately I’m not coordinated enough to keep up with the knots and pattern as crazy as that sounds. After the final tie-off of the sides and bottom of the bag, I think it would look neat and interesting to leave the extra cord tails hanging free like fringe or even trimming them shorter if they are to long. Or even going ahead after closing up the sides and bottom, make a few more (or a lot more) rows of knotting to make like a macrame “panel” of sorts including or excluding the added fringe effect. Or another idea; string on some wood beads (or other types) onto the fringe or panel with fringe. So many possibilities.

[@emilinebelle7811]

Thanks for the video! 💜 will be making this as soon as I find a local shop that has macrame chord.

[@debcllns]

I love this! Thank you for sharing. 💫

[@julecaesara482]

yes this looks doable. but really you can do this with any kind of cord.

[@Feathered_Moon]

It is wonderful!!

[@lexfigueroaa]

just a question! from what it looks like, there was quite a bit of macrame rope cut off at the end. could I do this without making the chords 6ft to prevent so much from being cut off? If so, how much is alright? five feet? i want to make one around the same size as you, I just hate the idea of so much being cut off without use. thank you for your time :)

[@EmilyFaith]

Lex Figueroa I’m sure you could try 5ft and worst case scenario you have to make the bag smaller then you thought

[@lexfigueroaa]

Emily Faith thank you so much!!

[@eileentorres7827]

Wow, I love your handles, what a great Idea. I've done these bags, but I had problems with the handles. Thanks again.

How much excess cord did you end up having to cut off at the last step? I'm making a smaller bag so that will help me estimate my cord lengths.

If you added more than 32 cords would it make a bigger bag? :)
