How to Make a Simple Macrame Plant Hanger (Beginner Friendly!)

[@dollywp]

I did macrame in the 80's when it was popular. I decided to teach a class to the women in my home and garden club how to make a small plant hanger. I looked on KZbin to see if I could find a simple pattern tutorial to refresh my memory. I"m so glad I came across this one. It is a great pattern for beginners or for someone like me who had experience from long ago. I like this one best because it had several different knots instead of just one and that you can add beads or not. This tutorial was very well done. I'm going to check out her other videos.

May i say... Your very good at teaching. I'm 38 never been able to do a 4 strand braid before until now. Beginner at macrame and this is my first project... Its going very well for my first go thanks to you. 😊

I can so relate to your measuring process. When I was very young, I remember my Grandmother telling me how to somewhat gauge a yard of fabric by holding the end in your fingertips, stretching your arm out straight from the shoulder & measuring it from there to the tip of your nose. Many years later I read where if you stretched both arms out & measured from the tip of your middle finger on one side to the tip on the other side, it will usually equal your full height in inches. So I'm pretty sure her measurements where off since she was only 5' 4". Lol

I have made this hanger in the past and its lovely, today I made it with shock cord, which is stretchy and weather resistant, I also used a heavy duty metal ring, which makes this hanger fantastic for heavy plants and doesn't matter if it gets wet :)

Hello Chrystal, thank you for this fun tutorial! I am making this plant hanger, it's my first macrame project and I'm adding some beads. Your tutorial is so clear and easy to follow!

[@kockeyedkitty]

Great tutorial! Thank you. I made one as a kid in art class back in the 80's but they had us use a kit with ring and beads to go on it too. And I really wanted a more clean looking hanger without all the hardware!

[@deliachitts1964]

Oh looks really goodChrystal I will make this one for sure thanks for sharing and explaining so clearly 😅😊

[@Sheepish295]

Great planter, easy and quick to make. It works great for later pots too and there's not a lot of waste. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@vacsvi]

I just did my first plant hanger with your help! Super easy and nice, thank you!! ❤

[@khc6902]

Just made one! You're a great teacher! Thank you!

[@tinadriskell4469]

Nice tutorial. I'm going to making several of these for my plants.😊

[@rasheedakhan3299]

Thank you enjoyed your tutorial.

Hi, loved this one, I must have gone wrong somewhere, I had several very long ones left and 2 very short ones ,almost too short to finish, started with 8 x 170inches

[@dido13400]

Il faut juste twister les cordes pour ramener les plus longues à l'intérieur. Le faire en passant des nœuds plats au noeud en spirale. Pas de risque de manquer de cordes.

[@amymatt6609]

Hi Crystal...thanks for your awesome videos! I was wondering if you have a finished length for this hanger. Also, on another video you were working on a white board. What kind of board is it and how do you fasten your work down? It must be quite sturdy to handle the tugging! Thanks for your help.

[@lawanataylor8206]

❤ great tutorial you explained it very well thank you

[@ML-ri4kb]

Took me an hour to make the first loop 😅

[@dido13400]

Merci je viens de terminer grâce à vous et je suis ravie. J'ai juste dû faire une erreur quelque part car même en croisant les cordes, celles de l'extérieur étaient trop courtes. J'ai donc rallongé de 50cm sur les nœuds plats et c'est OK

[@valeriahamilton8741]

Thank you. I appreciate it ❤

[@jojett7847]

So the length of 8 ropes is 150 inches each or it’s 150 inches divided by 8? I’m so confused

[@kaylasmith6639]

How do i know how much weight my rope will hold?

[@fi333girl]

Can you tell me how long the hanger is please? Thanks Crystal

[@susanlynnrook9383]

Great tutorial, just made my first for my never ending growing purple/silver tradescantia! Very easy to follow but I’ll adjust the cotton length next time as I seemed to be cutting a lot off! And I’m such a tight @rs£! 😂😂😂xxx

[@brianmaytum8519]

[@theanansi4270]

So overall you used like 320 meters?

[@kellyjackson8189]

[@babiesdinner]

An arms length is your height. Just saying So im 170cm/ 5 foot 7", its 66. Something inches . So basically below Average Height do 3. Lol. Sorry hopefully someone understand that
