I’ve shared this tutorial on my latest Instagram post, however, I also wanted to added here so you can all find it again easily and the images are much bigger!
This is a simple and effective little project that you can do it even if you have never tried macrame before. Give it a go and if you post a picture on Instagram or Facebook, please use #startacreativejourney
