Macramé is a form of textile produced using knotting techniques (rather than weaving or knitting) and it has exploded with popularity these past few years.

This 2 hour workshop is perfect for total beginners. You will learn a range of key macramé techniques and be guided through every step, to make your very own beaded plant hanger in a beautiful spiral design. The basic knots you learn will enable you to make many different items in the future too – perfect for giving to friends and family!

In true zero waste style, after your have mastered your own plant hanger, we will be demonstrating how you can upcycle old textiles into mini macrame hangers too! Get creative and bring a long an old tshirt if you have one (large as possible), so you can start your upcycled hanger with guidance and finish it at home!

In the workshop you will receive:

• all materials – this includes 100% UK cotton cord 3.5mm or 5mm, 1 wooden hoop, 4 wooden beads
• An instruction sheet
• small group guided support from start to finish
• loose leaf tea/locally roasted filter coffee
• A choice of snack – crisps/ roasted peanuts/ fava beans/ wasabi peas/ bombay mix
• Exclusive 10% discount on anything bought in store up to £50 – please arrive 30 minutes before your session begins if you would like to shop.
• a relaxing, creative evening

All materials are included but please bring along your own small/medium plant pot so you can plan the size of your hanger – we recommend no larger than 15cm x 13cm. If you would like to start your own upcycled hanger project at the end, please bring an old t-shirt (large as possible).

This workshop can also be purchased as a gift for someone else – just write in the notes section where you would like the ticket to be emailed to.
