Get all bohemian with beautiful makrames, baskets, perfect for keeping clutter at bay. I use them to store throws and make up, but if you have enough space, these also make wonderful planters.

What is a makrame

Makrame, also known as macramé, is a form of textile crafting that involves creating intricate patterns and designs through the art of knotting. Originating from ancient Arabic weavers, makrame has a rich history that dates back centuries.

This traditional craft has gained popularity in modern times as a versatile and creative way to make anything from wall hangings and plant holders to jewelry and clothing accessories. The beauty of makrame lies in its simplicity and elegance.

By using various knotting techniques such as square knots, half-hitch knots, and lark's head knots, crafters can produce stunning pieces with intricate patterns and textures. The process of creating makrame pieces can be both meditative and rewarding, allowing artists to express their creativity and bring unique designs to life.
