DIY Easy Wall Hanging Macrame

Definitely macrame isn't something new for me. I remember myself around 16 years old to knit a whole backpack with rope. It was the year that my mother was teaching ways of macrame knittings to other women and when she was practicing at home, we were learning from her.
So, I was happy to find out in many home decor photos that macrame is back. Among them, I distinguished a simple wall hanging project that was so cool, despite its simplicity. And, I wanted to try it immediately. It's not difficult to find its material anyway.

You will need five things to do it:

• cotton rope

• driftwood, or stick

• scissors

• acrylic painting and brushes for colorful details

Step 1

Decide the length of your desired macrame and cut the rope in many equal pieces.

Step 2.

Tie your pieces on the driftwood making this beautiful basic macrame knot.

Step 3.

Make many of them to reach your desired width.

Step 4.

Make colorful details. I mixed water with acrylics and put the edges of macrame in order to add a splash of color. I also painted small stripes in the edges of the wood. You can leave this step if you want a completely natural look.

And, my simple wall hanging macrame is ready! The small one is made by our little crafter!!!
