Handcraft your very own macrame wreath hanger to add an elegant touch to your festive decor—or display it as a beautiful piece all year round!

Macrame is the art of tying decorative knots by hand, weaving threads or cords into simple or intricate knots. The word “Macrame” itself is French and means knot. It has ancient origins, used in practical applications like fishing nets and horse reins. In recent times, Macrame has gained popularity as an art form for creating decorative items such as wall hangings, plant hangers, and curtains.

In this hands-on workshop, led by Tamara Hamula – the talented Macrame artist, you will embark on an immersive journey into the art of knotting. You’ll receive step-by-step guidance throughout the process, with personalized assistance to ensure your creation turns out beautifully. Explore intricate techniques and patterns as you craft a stylish and functional wreath hanger that will beautifully adorn your space.

All materials will be provided to participants, along with a complimentary glass of wine upon arrival.

Who is this for: Recommended for ages 12 and up, this workshop is perfect for anyone looking to dive into macrame and explore their creative side. No prior experience is necessary—just bring your enthusiasm and a willingness to have fun!
