How To Make A Simple, Easy Macramé Plant Hanger

Macramé is great hobby for plant enthusiasts, and this is a fun, easy project for anyone who's just getting their feet wet. (I don't make tutorial videos so this is rough AF -- but a tutorial nonetheless.) Thanks for watching!
What you need:
-Rope (I use Macramé Cord or Jute Rope)
-Scissors
-Planter
-Measuring Tape (optional)

I had no idea what I was doing prior to this. The happiness of my wife’s face after me surprising her was priceless and worth all the effort you put into this video. Thank you!

[@erinb4237]

Oh, you're so sweet. Here's hoping my boyfriend does the same 😉

[@Carol-sx6rg]

I watched at least a dozen of these “easy” DYI plant hanger making videos. This gentleman by far is THE best instructor. He explains every step in the process concisely. Best of all was his explanation of length. Thank you!

[@cindyvan635]

Nice to see this coming back, everyone did this in the 70's🤗👍👌✌🌿❤🌿

[@coreencasey5109]

This is literally the best video and most simple ive discovered. Thank you

[@aleinacoddington981]

Best step to step tutorial I've seen on a macrame hanger! Super simple, yet gorgeous 💗 Win, Win in my book!

[@lisaawild]

Thank you, Nick. I learned at summer camp as a child but had never done it again. I think I will make some, thanks to your video.

[@augustineschaefer5522]

This is so much easier than how I do it. Holy moly starting from the bottom means learning a bowline knot. I love that little gathering knot.

[@daxandbrandylance4025]

This is a great tutorial. I especially appreciated how well you showed the gathering and that you can pull the knot through to hide it. Other tutorials have the people's hands in the way so I could never tell if they actually pull the knot up and under the wrap or just up to it. I pulled mine through after watching your video and it's a beautiful wrap now! Thank you!

[@susansanchez4794]

Thank you Nick, this was so cool, now I 'm going to make these plant hangers you are a sweetheart for sharing this with us, nurseries and garden shops charge so much for macrame hangers instructions were so simple and easy, end product looks very boho, never worry about how you explain things, but you make us smile, enjoy your day, hugs from Orange County, Ca 😊🌿❤

[@deniseallan9999]

I keep coming back to this demo time & again. I have these hangers all around my house and am now making them for others. Thanks Nick!

[@walkwithMilo]

Ah! Thank you! I've been needing a pot hanger for my string of hearts plant and now I have a fab one. I used 4 strands and I found it super easy!

[@emilyedwards4914]

My room mates cat would NOT leave my spider plant alone! You saved my poor spider with this video!

[@bernadinebiggs4303]

Thanks for this! I just made two hangers to replace some old mismatched ones I had. Such an easy and straightforward method. Thanks again

[@rachelglova6008]

I love this tutorial! I used some rope for exteriors and made two of these, so I could hang plants in my tree. I am so happy I found this video, it made everything seem so simple and I am impressed with the result.

[@ashholemartinez5143]

I did this with really thick yarn cause that’s all I had on hand and it worked out really well ! It was really easy to do and the results are just so good ✨🥰

[@ckp09er]

I’m doing it with thin yarn! :D

[@paulamcgivern8552]

Thank you, Nick. I made this in the middle of a stressful sleepless night and now my spider plant looks lovely in its new hanging home and Feel like I can go back to bed and sleep well. looking forward to watching your houseplant tour in the future.🙏

[@panarama7115]

I was going to order a macrame pot hanger but I came across a hobby kit with macrame cord in it and thought about making my own and that's I came across your video. I love that you show just a basic hanger which is what I wanted. You saved me $10. Thank you so much for making this video!

[@ashtonlong7062]

THANK YOU. I was SO desperate to get a new plant of mine away from my roommates kitten and this did exactly the trick. Life saver!!!!!

[@ericahinkle4901]

This video just changed my life lol! I drove to 5 separate store this morning and NO ONE has macramé hangers in my area! I have a several planters I would rather hung. On my way home I thought how hard could it be? I’ll KZbin it. Found your video immediately and I’m so glad I did! Super informative instructions, your perfectionism is totally relatable and I thought you were endearingly funny! I also now know what everyone is getting for Christmas this year 😂😂🤚🏻Thank you! Excited to dive into your other content soon!

[@naomiparkes2776]

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I wasn’t sure I could do macrame but this was the perfect place to start ☺️

[@CordeliaHines]

Thank you so much for the video! The part that I like about this is that you don’t skip to when you finish the step to move on quickly, you do it step by step with us. It’s really handy, because they do that in all of the other tutorials I’ve seen. Keep up the awesome work! 🤗🍃🌿🪴🍄🌹

[@laurenrath3130]

I followed this in real time and now have a happy little plant hanger. Great instructions! Thank you!

[@visionaryvenus]

Thank you for this awesome beginner-friendly tutorial! 😍🙏🏼 So easy and quick to make. I love the clean look as it gives more space for all the new leaves. 🌿

[@Eibmozluver]

I am so glad I found this video. I haven't done macrame in many years, and you brought it all back to me. Whoo hoo! I'm so excited! There's going to be macrame all over my house. ❤

[@michellehall4165]

I’d love to see more videos of your macrame! You explained it so well💚

[@knitsocks2424]

Thank you for this video, Nick! So easy to understand and I just made several like this for my plants!

[@coffeepensplants8774]

Just wanted to thank you for a truly simple way to do this!

[@carolsmith7951]

So interesting Nick thanks for taking the plunge, you are an excellent teacher! Bravo

[@derbytowntom]

Thank you so much for the lesson. You're an excellent teacher! I followed along with your video, and my hanger turned out perfect!

[@elizabethventer5071]

This is just the best, well explained tutorial. Thank you!😊

[@annielitton4622]

You are the best teacher. I love that look. Thank you.

[@FelesAdamantis]

What a coincidence!!! I was just looking around KZbin for a simple style macrame planter and voilà, you unloaded this! Thank you so much Nick, you explained everything very well

[@fredkrol932]

You are an amazing teacher! Wow! I love how positively clear your instructionsnwear. THANK YOU!

[@musterdseed3]

Thank you so much for doing a tutorial! I've been hoping you would soon! It's perfect to do along with!

[@sandrarodriguez2115]

Wow 👏 i thought it was harder to do. I can now do my own macrame hangers 🙌 thanks nick😁

[@lleo9703]

HI NICK! Great video, I’m hitting my rope box this week. Thank you so much for including measurements along the way as others don’t seem to do that and I never know how much rope to cut. I can’t stand very long so I clamp the rope to my table so I don’t have to reach far to make knots etc. I use a typical woodworkers clamp.

[@Icebrg313]

Thank you Nick! These are so expensive at the stores and I've wanted to make my own for some time!

[@AnimeShinigami13]

I've been using crochet to make plant hangers. I've also used a ring for making dreamcatchers, made of iron or whatever so its nice and strong, and that holds a 6 inch terracotta pot nicely.

[@noramckiddie1683]

I love this. Due to 4 kittens I now have to hang my plants! So this is just what I needed. Thank you.

[@melodeelucido1446]

Thank you so much. I haven't done macrame since the early 70s. I'm going to make a bunch!!

[@aster5600]

Thank you for this tutorial! I’m going to try and make one as a Christmas present. Your instructions are super easy to understand.

[@jesshudson55]

Thank you! 😊 such a simple and helpful tutorial and your voice is super relaxing, too.

[@lilliesoares5058]

Thanks Nick every step looks so easy when you do it. I’m going to try it. I hope I succeed.

[@Starlitesis]

Thank you!! I got roses for Easter and I really wanted to hang them on the porch. You were a great teacher!

[@Wardnissan]

Just made two, and I’m completely in love with them 😍 thank you so much!

[@laura12060]

awesome, i haven't done macramé plant hangers for almost 40 years so i needed a refresher, thanks so much. the only difference is that I used macramé patterns with the cord.

[@maryendris9411]

Absolutely love it . GREAT TUTORIAL !!! Thank you!

[@megablessedgram]

Nick, what a great video! You are so good at explaining the instructions, and I look forward to making my own macramé plant hangers!

I always love your content! Stumbled upon it today while researching my next hanging pot project. Recognized your voice before I looked at the username, knew it was you!!! and it brought a smile to my face. Great work! Perfect knots! Thank you SO much!

[@stephaniesmith8163]

[@stacykoenig-bx2ot]

Thank you. You are now one of my favorites now

[@paulanascimento7632]

You are the best instructor by far thank you!!!!

[@UnkleAL1962]

Wow I just peeled off 2 of these in no time! Thanks for your clear instructions!! Made them for outside using the standard greenhouse hanging plastic pots they come in. Used some twine/rope I had from a yard sale. Strung 4 strands through a ring and made the gathering knot under that. Used four strands of rope each 100" long to make a final product of 44" long with the tassel. Based the length on 2 outside macrame hangars I bought also at a yard sale some years back they last a long time.

[@erickoob6251]

Awesome! I’m doing them for a telescopic plant pole I just got! Thanks for a short fun lesson!

[@bernadettestapleton2016]
