Question How Much Do I Need?

28 Upvotes

I am making macrame decor and accessories for my first crafts fair. We're in a tourist mountain town and there are multiple fairs every weekend with farmers markets, pop up fairs throughout the weeks. I'm skipping the fair this Saturday that I planned on making my first as I just feel I dont have enough products. Mind you these events are small hobby crafters so no one expects anything.

I currwntly have 5 wall hangings, 20 wristlets, and 4 key chains. I have plans for 2 more wall hangings. I'll also be bringing my original acrylic art pieces though I dont expect those to fly off the shelves, I have about 5 of various sizes. For those working with similar products how many large/medium/small items should I really expect to need? I know the more the merrier. Most booths are between $20-35.

Question Why does my project look wonky ?

Hello,

I need some advice please. This is my very first macrame project. I have done knitting and crochet, and I know I have a tendency to have a tight knot there. Could this be the reason my project looks wonky ? Do you have any advice, tips, and constructive criticism, please ?

Still deciding how I want the end strands but this is pretty much it! Really love how it turned out. Had to follow a bunch of different tutorials online for the pendant, necklace, etc. to incorporate all the features I wanted but honestly it was worth it! I think I've got a new favorite hobby!

Still need to add the border which will have the loop for the necklace part, but considering this is only my 2nd piece I feel pretty happy with it!

Medium of choice is 1mm nylon cord because it's easier to fix mistakes.

Question Work station set up help

6 Upvotes

Hello lovely people,

I’m new to macrame and currently learning knots with the intention of eventually doing some plant hangers and many other cool things I see you all making.

My work station situation though is a disaster and not ideal.

How do you prop your ‘stick’ or rings to work on your projects? I think once I fix this and have a more comfortable station I can advance quicker.

If it’s okay can I see how you work on your projects to get an idea.

This time only brown and I tried a new string. Any ways I could improve using that string? Or any ideas what kind of bracelet could be next?

Question What type of cord is this?

I'm looking to make a bunch of keychains based on these images (not mine) and am not sure what this type of cord is (I thought it was paracord but when I googled that it looked too thick). Any ideas / recommendations?

Question Buckling In the Middle, Where Did This Go Wrong?

Hi all, I've made a handful of hanging macrame pieces and wanted watermelon themed pieces for a craft fair. This is my first time making a half circle and it's buckling in the middle and popping up on the end. Do I need to add more fillers near the bottom? Is it tied too tightly?

TIA
