Geometric on top, functional on the bottom 🌿 This month’s new tutorial is a wall plant hanger that starts as a diamond panel of clove hitches and turns into a little basket for your plant.

Intermediate level, about 2 hours, one 5mm cord.

The full step by step is up now for Macrame Makers Club. Comment “links” and I’ll send you the link for the 7 day free trial. :)

The top part of the plant hanger is attached to a little dowel that can hang off the wall, or independently off a hanging hook. Depending on the size of your plant the geometric pattern is visible just above it!

The net where you place the plant pot with is adjustable for different sizes of plants. My pot is 14cm or 5.5 inches wide.

My little plant loves her new sunny spot!

My second-ever macrame hair accessory is here, and

My second-ever macrame hair accessory is here, and look how cute! 🌙 The Crescent hair clip is tiny (just 3 meters of cord!), quick (about 30 minutes), and honestly so satisfying to make. Four rows of clove hitches build up into a soft crescent shape, with a fringe that fans out below into a gentle semi-circle.

Wear it crescent-up, or flip it so the fringe faces up instead, both look lovely. And if hair clips aren’t really your thing, you can pin it to a jacket lapel or a tote bag as a brooch instead.

Making this little thing brought me back in memory lane to about 5 years ago, when I first began making macrame, and made mostly small jewelry items, including little half moon shaped necklaces and earrings. Oh how times fly! Maybe I should bring one of those into the club?

Comment “Crescent” (and make sure you follow me) so I can send you the links! Or join Macrame Makers Club to get this tutorial plus 60+ more, whenever you’re ready. :)

This beautyyyy! 😍 the fluffiest boho macrame place

This beautyyyy! 😍 the fluffiest boho macrame placement you’ll ever find! I present to you: Ruffles placemat. ✨

I’m so bad at this Instagram thing, or marketing in general. Jeeez, how can I be this lazy? I make a plan, fall behind, make another plan, fall behind yet again, and around and around it goes. All the while guilt tripping myself for not being capable.

But, that said, other things in life have been keeping me feeling more fully alive than I can even express with words. Let me ask you, when was the last time you stopped, focused on the present, and fully felt everything? Not in your mind (those are thoughts), but in your body? Woke up being fully present in your life, not reaching out for your phone or other things to distract you? Life is so beautiful outside of these apps. 💕

But… marketing. So, here, the tutorial for this beauty is in my membership! Comment club and I’ll send you the link. 👋😅✨ #macramehomedecor

My new tattoo, a little heart my dad drew, and my

My new tattoo, a little heart my dad drew, and my new macrame project. ❤️

I’m writing this exactly one year after my dad passed away. It was May 27th, 2025. Earlier this month when we were all together in Finland for my niece’s christening, my three sisters, my mom, and I, we all got tattoos of hearts that my dad drew for us. In March last year we asked him to draw us hearts, and then we told him we were going to get them as tattoos. His reaction was, “Why didn’t you tell me sooner? I would have drawn them better.” Bless. But they were perfect exactly as they were. Hand drawn, squiggly lines, a little wobbly. Done with a relaxed hand, without the pressure of perfection. That’s what made them real.

A year of grief has become a year of new life. My sister got married last summer. Her daughter was just christened. We marked this one-year anniversary month of dad’s death with tears and tattoos and with new beginnings. With hearts that dad drew, that we’ll carry with us forever.

While I was editing my new macrame tutorial this week, my dad’s heart on my hand is visible in every frame. I’m there, creating, teaching, and dad is right there with me in every shot. His heart, literally visible on my hand as I tie knots and share macrame. From now on, he’ll be in every video I make. Every tutorial I create, he’s creating with me too. 💛

I miss you dad.

(and for those who don’t speak Finnish: This song is my dad’s song, one that made him think of us, where the lyrics say “take care of yourself, if I leave this world before you, walk on the side of those who are happy, keep your chin up”.✨)

When your curtains match your vibe and your space?

When your curtains match your vibe and your space? Makes me soooo happy! This is my “Eden” energy. ✨

In my workspace I have these huge shelves that needed a little touch of boho beauty. I kept seeing the end of the shelves and decided to cover it, and what is better than a macrame curtain? Now every time I walk over to my workdesk I see this, and it inspires me to make more pretty and functional macrame! For my space and for yours. 💕

My Eden macrame curtains are beginner-friendly and fully customizable to your exact window size. Just square knots and overhand knots creating V-shapes and diamonds (that actually look way harder than they are).

Are you ready to make your own? Comment Eden and I’ll send you the links. You can either join my membership Macrame Makers Club for the full video tutorial or purchase the tutorial on it’s own, but then you miss out on all the other 60+ tutorials we have on our own app. 😊

Some reflections on the busyness of life… This mon

Some reflections on the busyness of life… This month surprised me in one unexpected way: I noticed how much I craved slowing down. The macrame retreat with Laura @drawingknots was exactly what I needed. Those long days with my hands moving and my mind settling reminded me of something I’d figured out back in January and February. I had it then: time to just be and breathe.

Somewhere between March and April, I filled my calendar again. Weekends got booked. Days got planned and I felt there was no time for anything. Does this resonate with anyone else? Do you find yourself doing the same? Here’s the lesson I’m relearning: I need to make less plans and leave room for last-minute ideas and activities instead. Something I’m noticing about myself (and maybe you too?) is how quickly we fill the space we create.

The macrame retreat I went on didn’t shift how I think about my work so much as it reinforced what I already know I want. I want to make with people. I want to organise workshops and maybe even plan weekend retreats myself, to create these moments where we just are. And, I want to be a student again. I want to attend craft workshops, learn new things, show up as someone curious instead of always being the one who teaches. I’m curious if anyone else craves that shift: from being the expert to being the learner?

So, if there’s one small thing I’m carrying into May, that is slowing down. That feeling of calm that comes when you’re not rushing. When you just are. Your breath calms down and your nervous system relaxes. It’s worth protecting. If you’ve ever felt that shift, you know what I mean. ✨
