Macrame Plant Hangers: Important Tips to Remember

1. When making macrame plant hangers, it is necessary you organize and get these SUPPLIES;

• You will need cords, and as you are aware there are varieties of macrame cords to pick from like natural jute or hemp. Natural jute is commonly used in most traditional macrame hangers.

• Rubber bands are also very useful as you will use them to cut the cords in to different sections while working.

• A mount will be handy to help make your cords stable; this will make your work faster.

2. Choose the right type of cord; make sure they are the strong type - it will be easy for it to hold the plant. Don’t forget to check out the texture, pick a smooth and firm macrame cord.

3. You can add beads to give it that unique and outstanding beauty.

4. Macrame plant hangers with varieties of colorful cords are a great work to behold any time, any day.

5. Don’t forget the three basic patterns-single tiers, double tiers and multiple tiers. There are other patterns too. Always remember that the number of plants to be placed in the hanger should guide the choice of pattern you choose.
