Macrame plant hanger; Beginner tutorial in real time

I know this isn't the best way to film but I think you get the gist of it. TFW, Sara

[@melaniestenius2397]

I am so glad I came across your video. You make it seem like I came over to a friend's house to learn a new craft. Thank you.

[@marilyncampbell882]

Well done, girl👍. I’m 79 years old and I was into macrame 49 years ago, big time‼️. I wanted to watch a tutorial to wake my brain up and there you were☺️. I totally enjoyed your video, and I’m a big fan going forward 🌹 Thanks for being normal 😝🌹

[@myserenitycrafts]

You are so welcome!🙏 thank you for watching.

[@carolwenzel3170]

I just ❤ your "I'm good enough " mantra because when it comes to doing arts & crafts I'm a perfectionist & I beat myself up when it doesn't work out the first time. But since watching you, I've calmed down & tell myself it's good enough, I feel better & my macreme project comes better than i expected. Thank you 😊

[@myserenitycrafts]

Omg. That’s amazing. Attitude is really the key to everything. I’ve been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. And my fear of not being able to do things without pain was making me sad. My husband and I talked about it and I decided to be patient and do things in moderation and rest in between. It’s amazing how much better my day goes when I keep it simple and practice easy does it. Tfw enjoy.

[@blake-l5y]

Thank you sincerely for sharing your craft, great job! My mother recently passed away and she was ALL about crafting, craft shows, and also loved teaching others how to and your energy and genuine positive vibes remind me of her crafting spirit. Thank you for the inspiration to keep my moms legacy alive by creating my craft! ♥️

[@busterskid]

You just demonstrated the most useful tip I have ever seen in my experience in doing macrame. I love doing square knots and spirals in plant hangers but I know I was going to end up with two very long cords and two very short cords. I tried cutting cords longer for the outside cords but it didn't always work. You are little switcheroo by taking the outer cords and switching them with the inner cords solve the problem perfectly. I am so glad I came across your video and learned this. I plan to do more of your plant hangers and I like the way you explain that three arms might be better than four depending on the bushiness of the plant. Great work and a great teacher, thank you.

[@myserenitycrafts]

Thank you Roxanne for your lovely comment. Tfw. Sara

[@karenwygal7022]

Agree! It's a great tip!

[@SScherliss]

Great video very well done and you’re an excellent teacher and a kind soul . Enjoyed spending this time learning with you!

[@TheAcaciaStraiin]

Love your video! I haven't done macrame over 20 years and am about to make a few hangers. This was a perfect refresher 😊

[@MaureenCallahan-bt8sd]

Last summer I tried to teach my grandchildren but was so frustrated with the directions. You have completely simplified this. Now grandma project isn’t an epic fail. Thanks for sharing and simplifying

[@myserenitycrafts]

Yay. That’s awesome. Have fun

[@sylvaindompierre6780]

Thank you very much from all of us because the way you are showing us it's like the way a mother would show to her childrens. So thank You very much Mom !!!!

[@XtinaEstrada23]

This was my favorite demonstration ever. I get so excited about the little things too! 😂 I feel like I'm just hanging out with my friend. Thanks for all the tips. You made it so relaxed and easy to follow and now I'm eager for more!! You're little camera struggles were cracking me up and I loved watching Kirby rocking with his Mama! You're awesome, love your energy ❤

[@myserenitycrafts]

I'm so glad! Thank you so much for watching. 🥰

[@patriciaplat4663]

So beautiful! I really enjoyed seeing the finished products with the plants. Thanks for so expertly and freely sharing your expertise with us!

[@winniewilken5760]

I tend to get frustrated and go through cycles of not enjoying making macrame (really any of my projects) bc I become such a perfectionist about my work but I always come back to this video bc i love your energy and you help remind myself that it’s supposed to be fun. Especially the part where you mention the beauty of handmade items are that they will never be “perfect” ♥️

[@myserenitycrafts]

Hi Winnie. Thanks for watching. Most of the things I make are pretty good. But none of them are perfect. Enjoy the process. If it’s not fun why do it right. Take care. Sara

[@stanley432leasure5]

[@colleensteiner9112]

I love the way you are explaining as many details as you can think of. From the size of pots to the lengths and spacings of the next layer of knots! I love macrame plant hangers. I made a ton of them back in the day. I'm watching you to refresh my memory and you are great at explaining. I will continue watching your videos. Hoping to try a wall hanging at some point! Your crazy explaining makes soooo much sense to me! Keep up the great work.

[@Denise-lg2wy]

What a joy it was to spend a little bit of time with you today. Thank you so much for sharing your time and your knowledge. I feel inspired to have a go now, thanks to you.

[@suemcmahon1960]

[@laurar4465]

I stumbled on to giving macrame a try because crocheting a plant hanger just didn't look right. I bought the cord and beads from Amazon and I'm ready to give it a try.

@@myserenitycrafts Hi Sara, Thank you so much for this video. I watched it twice and I did it! I feel like I learned so much from you. I watched videos teaching the knots like you suggested. That was a big help!! I have a question - is it possible to use different colored cords at once? I'd like to make a plant hanger in rainbow 🌈

[@virginiamwells]

Thank you! You're just the right speed for me and I wrote down all the steps. Going out to get beads to make one today. :)
