while wondering the CHA floor in January
i came across the Rit Studio booth
they where dying wooden bead
wow! why didn't i think of that?!
i picked 2 colors and a variety of sizes
and last week i finally got a chance to
create some fun necklaces
which worked great for stringing the beads and as always lead me to thinking
what other ways can i use this cord?
so out came the clip board and using a basic square knot i created my first strand
it has been a long time since i worked on a macramé project and really enjoyed it
the second strand i repeated the the half square knot to get the spiral effect
and finally , after some inspiration from pinterest i found this double knot
i can't wait to work on some more projects
Cool idea to dye the wooden beads, great necklaces.

ReplyDeleteI love the second necklace, Nancy. The organic looking macrame you created is just perfect with the wooden beads.
