Modern MACRAME CHANDELIER with beads and tassels

In this video I walk you through how I've created this macrame chandelier, tassels and all. Read along to get all of the lengths and measurements.
The final piece is about 60 cm (23 in) long in the longest section.
To make it you will need the following supplies:
210 m (689 ft.) of 5 mm braided cord
I was using these cords in the color Blossom by Bobbiny shop.bobbiny.c...
55 m (180 ft.) of 3 mm single twist cord
I was using these cords in the color Blossom by Bobbiny shop.bobbiny.c...
40 cm (15,7 in) metal ring
69 beads (make sure the center hole is big enough for your cords)
And here is how long I've cut my cords to make one of the three half-circles. Whenever you see more than just one cord per row that means I was adding those filler cords to fill my gaps. And one final note - keep in mind that the braided cord is quite stretchy so you may end up using different amounts of cord because you make your knots tighter/looser than me.

[@beckerabstracts]

Instead of using string to hold your ring, try four dowels arranged the same way with rubber bands at each end. Put the dowels on the rack and the ring on the dowels. Of course the dowels have to be long enough to extend past the ring. Make a larks head knot on the ring with a rubber bad and slip it on the dowels end. Love your videos! I did macrame back in the 70s and am happy people like you are keeping it alive.

[@sydneys658]

Hi! I'm giving this design a try but the color I want is only available in 3mm do you recommend doing anything different? Thanks in advance

[@annabaginova01]

Hi Sydney, that's awesome! Well the only thing I would consider is whether you want to have a smaller size ring because if you will keep the same size you will need more cord and it will also take you a bit longer to complete...but other than that 3mm will work just as well 😉

[@glennaosterman]

You mention in the video that you use a tire rack? Did I hear you correctly? I'm in the US and a tire track here looks nothing like that. I'm trying to figure out what I could use here.

[@annabaginova01]

Yes, that's correct and you are right it has to be this specific type where you stash the tires on top of each other with the metal tube in the middle. I am not sure what I would use instead of it as I've had this since the very first chandelier I've done...

How do you get the sides to stay straight?? Mine is cupping 🤔

[@annabaginova01]

Oh yeah, mine is doing that too, maybe it's not as visible but it's certainly happening. I think the trick is to keep the right balance between adding new cords and working through the gaps. It starts cupping more when you are not adding new cords and instead you are closing those bigger gaps with the existing cords, then everything gets more pulled in hence the cupping. I hope that helps...

I have a question: do I need to add extra rope all the time? rows is every new rope? Thanks 🙏

[@annabaginova01]

Not all the time, I don't think I added rope in every single row, but there were also rows where I added two or three extra cords. You need to judge it by how big the gaps are.

Well I try to sell them but I am not putting as much effort into that so most of them are currently at this exhibition waiting for their new owner 😌 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXmqZHeuqsaLppI

[@Nitarachronicles]

The design is absolutely beautiful but It is very difficult to understand the measurements , in row 1 do u mean we are using 2 cords 3 metre each and in the second row just 1 cord that is 3 metre & add 1 cord 3 metre…. Then 3rd row there is 1 cord for 3 metre & 2 cords r added for 9 metre each please if you could explain it would be great..

[@annabaginova01]

Right, in this one you should take the measurements as only an estimate because yours will probably be different depending on where you will see the gaps to add new cords. The first cord in each row should be the same but then all the others that I am adding might be different for you. So I would suggest go with what you see as you are going through all the rows, when you see a gap add a new cord even though my instructions may not have an additional cord in that row. For the description I added it is as you said that in the first row I was using two cords at 3m each. In the third row the initial cord was 3m and then I added one more cord at 2,9m. Other than the first row the cords I am adding are always slightly shorter than the initial cord for that row. I hope this helps.

[@annabaginova01]

Bonjour 🙂 In those rows you have the first cord which makes the new row - that's the longest one and then I ended up adding two cords at different gaps in the circle and those two are the same length. So really it is the same like the other rows I was just adding en extra cord there. I hope this helps...

how many metres and rows will be required for 12 metre ring ?

[@annabaginova01]

You mean your ring is 12 metres in diameter? That's huge! Well this design was more of a add-as-you-go type, I can't judge very well the lengths and number of rows in advance. I just knew that I wanted to have three half-circles on it so I split the ring into thirds and then just kept building the first half-circle until I got to that third. But you can probably do a rough estimate based on how big my ring was and how many rows I did...

[@Its_bhaveee]

@@annabaginova01 ohh sorry not metre 12 inches😅

[@FatimaOliveira-hp4fl]

Por favor quantos fios tem esse cordão??

[@annabaginova01]

If google translated your question correctly you wanted to know how many strands this cord has. So for the braided cord I am not sure, maybe 8...? And then there is the core of the cord. The single twist I was using for the tassels has just the one strand - hence the name single twist. I hope that helps.

[@nalinimani3841]

Can't understand the measurements

[@annabaginova01]

I know it's a bit more complicated for this pattern. You are starting with the longest cords in the first row - each cord should be 3,2m and then as you move on you cut cords that are shorter and shorter. So in the second row you only need 3,1m. The first cord in each row is always the one I am starting with that't going on the ring with the lark's headknot. If there are any other cords in that row those are the "filler" cords that I am using if I see any gaps in the pattern. Did that help at least a little bit?
