My Macrame Bassinet Project

Hey you! Thank you for being here! Before you try to make yourself a Macrame Bassinet please watch this video all the way through. Please know that this is NOT a tutorial. I don’t want anyone upset about “not giving enough info” I just filmed the process of me creating this bassinet. I had NO pattern and made it up as I went.
I used 3 spools of 4mm 3ply cotton rope. You can find it on my website HolmMadeMacrame.com
Please note that you can use 2 if you do a more simple design and make the bassinet less deep.
The copper pipe I got from Home Depot along with the wooden base I had cut there.
If you try making this or a similar bassinet please make SURE to hang it in a stud in your ceiling and make sure the four straps coming down are secure.
Never leave your baby unattended. For the mattress inside I ordered a custom FLAT bassinet mattress from Etsy. In this video you’ll see a DocATot inside the bassinet. I don’t recommend using one for inside. I used it to take a few videos and he lays in it while I supervised him.
If you enjoyed this process video please like and subscribe! Thanks you so much for watching! BEST OF LUCK to you creating one for yourself! It’s soo cute and cozy in the corner of my bedroom :)

Hallo Can you please sage, exactly what you needed. How much cord / rope, and how thick. i am in love with your work. Thanks and greetings from Switzerland

[@jenaralopresti893]

Hello, your project is wonderful I would like to know if it is possible to have the dimensions of the cradle and the size of the macrame string? With all my respect

Lindoooo! 👍 👏 👏 👏 👏 😚 😍 💖

[@namaramacrame]

Hi :) Love it, what is the distance between holes

[@leonaschimann4375]

can you do a full tutorial please

[@VvVaAaLl]

Could you explain/make an instagram reels on how to make the pattern you did on the long sides?

[@gabbyalonso227]

I Love what you’ve done with this bassinet, I’m thinking about making my own! If I cut my straps at the length you mentioned (11 ½ ft) what measurement do the straps end up being? From ring to poll. Also what depth do you recommend for the bassinet as you said yours is still to deep!

[@LeticiaLethbridge]

Absolutely love your work, this piece is amazing!! How did you attach the straps securely to each corner of the bassinet? Is it a specific knot?

[@trishschultz8563]

Hi Leticia, I’ve been making the bassinet too and I was wondering if you found out how to attach the four hanging cords.

[@marildaalbuquerque5557]

@@trishschultz8563 por favor, ajuda a saber qua tos metros tem os fios do berço, e essa parte que pendura. Ao todo qtos metros e quantos sao que devo cortar

[@saragille8610]

How long in centimeter (or inches I can “translate” it to centimeter) is the cord used for this? 🥰

[@vanessaadler1712]

How many yard are the spools of macrame that you use. I’m just curious as to how many spoils I would need to purchase of the macrame I use.

[@trishschultz8563]

Hiya, I’ve been trying to make a bassinet like yours, but I’m getting stuck on the pattern you made on the long sides. Is it an alternating fishbone pattern?

[@shelbifourman4238]

How big was the metal ring you used? 😊 I'm sorry if you've already said, I must've missed it!

[@marildaalbuquerque5557]

Quantos fios e de quantos metros vc usou? Pode especificar? Quero muito fazer um igual, mas nao sei quantidade e metragem dos fios, como tbm a espessura do que vc está usando

[@annaboshkova8202]

Please make a house tour 😍

[@ValidityJ]

I'm here from TikTok...SO GLAD I found your channel because I just bought a house, daydreaming about hanging plants in macramé hangers AND I loved the bassinet that Juby did on Justin & Juby (KZbin) but she doesn't teach it. My daughter is pregnant with my 1st grandchild. I would love to make it for her. Here's the thing, I've never macreméd anything before 😳 Should be interesting....I mean it's only rope & knots, right?

[@ValidityJ]

Ok...yah. Just watched the video. I'll be starting my macremé life with just plant hangers 🤣🤣🤣

[@Theholmfamily]

Hahah start with plant hangers 😂!!!

[@carricoe3699]

I am making one of these how many holes did you drill in the board?

[@rosiecurliss8998]

I absolutely love this bassinet. I have made a few myself, but always used a baby cradle. Would you be willing to sell me the cradle frame?

[@brilalliss3640]

Would you ever sell these ? I’d love one !

[@Micaelatovo]

Is there a way that you have a PDF that we can buy? Kinda hard to follow the video 😞

[@chelseayarnell5342]

How long are the cords that you attached to the copper pipe? Were they 11.5ft as well or are they shorter

[@Thainara399]

I from Brazil ❤️❤️❤️

[@thxkate1197]

How did you know if it's level? How do you adjust? Is your design adjustable?

[@marildaalbuquerque5557]

Por favor alguém ajuda com quantidade e metragem devo cortar os fios?

[@debylumenta0968]

❤❤❤

[@megandavenport1]

What size copper pipe did you use? Was it 1.5 or 2 inch?

[@niryquin]

Hi, I found you on Instagram, love what you do. You have such a beautiful family! Just subscribed :)

[@summmerly]

What would you say the finished product cost?

[@cbear9574]

I'd love to try this for my son and wife as soon as I hear their pregnant. Instead of using copper tubes for the top, do you think I could use thin pvc tubes? Beautiful!

[@jessicapowell3069]

I’m planning to use electrical conduit. I love copper but it’s a lot more expensive and you won’t be able to see it so defeats the purpose in my opinion.

[@cbear9574]

@@jessicapowell3069 thanks 😊

[@jessicapowell3069]

@@cbear9574 After looking more into it I think I will use 3/4 inch pvc pipping. I have a piece here and I think It will hold up well as it’s pretty strong and durable. But it’s cheaper and lighter in weight.

[@cbear9574]

Seemed me a picture when you've finished and good luck.

[@katherinerocha5418]

How long were your cords that make the actual crib?

[@UnKnown-zy1km]

How long did it take to macrame this bassinet? It beautiful but it looks like it took some time to make it...

[@ChikisRozae]

I want to make one , any advice on what kind of material to use ? That’s soft yet durable I’m becoming a mother this year!!

[@Theholmfamily]

Congratulations!!! I would recommend using the 4mm 3ply rope from my website HolmMadeMacrame.com that’s what I used 🥰

[@AnaSanchez-rm8vd]

I wish you sold these because I don’t have the patience for this whatsoever😅

[@hennasafer8249]

Can you please show the actual design of how you make that in slowly.

[@trishschultz8563]

I love your design but I wish you could slow down and explain all of the knots you’re doing please.

[@rabefamily8298]

Really nice project.. just you need to make your videos at least minimum of 15 minutes, so that yt can pay you at the average rate, goodluck... make more money.. you are so talented 😍😍😍

[@DebraANDBilly]

Hey what a lovely D.I.Y project. I feel like you should have made this a series of episodes and taught others how to make this, while you were making yours. It could have been a little way to give back to your community.

[@carolnoel7646]

❤️🙌🏻👍🏻👏🏻😎

[@angeliquemarquez4441]

Do you by chance make for customers? 🥰

How long did it take to make the bassinet? I’m new to macrame and would like to try one for my baby. She’s due in 5 weeks. 😬

[@nicholekam5527]

Start now lol

[@Theholmfamily]

I made it within a week:)

How did you connect the top section to the copper corners??

[@jessicapowell3069]

Also curious. I have a grand baby coming in about 7 months so I will be attempting this project soon!

[@laurelriker163]

Any chance I can pay you to make me one if I ever have another wee one?

[@willow3306]

Hey, does anyone have a pattern for something similar to this, especially a round one? I'd so appreciate it, thank you! 💕

[@rosiecurliss8998]

Willow, I am wondering the same thing. Did you ever find a pattern?

Its too fast that's why i Couldn't understand the measurements of ropes and the knots. Can u please tell me about them?
