Macrame Crafty Tip

I use clear fingernail polish on the ends of the cords. It stiffens the ends, making it easier to string the beads on - even the tiny size 11 seed beads!

Macrame Crafty Tip

You don't need anything for creating Macrame piece - only your hands, some yarn - and sometimes your imagination! Macrame is almost lost art but nowadays it become more and more popular.

When making knots with picots, covering your work surface with a piece of plaid fabric or lined paper will make it easier to create uniformly-sized loops.

Macrame Crafty Tip

When using leather to make jewelry, you cannot put pins through, or you will damage the material. Use the Cross-Pin technique instead:

Put 2 pins on either side of the strand of leather. Make sure they both lean towards the cord, and they cross.
