I have made smaller ones, but needed a refresher. Thank you for going slow in the beginning. Thanks for sharing.

I loved the fact you used simple humble card board instead of some fancy board to work on. I’m sure we can stick pins also into it! Thanks a ton

some people have used glue and water mix to stiffen the leaves or feathers, what are thoughts on that? I love your instructions, so clear and easy to follow. thank you for that.

Hi, thank you for your tutorial, I am brand new to macrame, I am making feathers to hang off a piece driftwood I collected from a beach. Please can you tell me how you attach the feather to macrame cord and then the driftwood? in your video you went from attaching a backing to then hanging and missed the step I am really interested in 🙂

I’m going shopping tomorrow to get supplies. Thanks for sharing!

How your video translated to me 😂:" you don't even need to know all those knot names"
"And you made your very own macrame feathers."


Me😮: BOOM fast forward 4 months and I'm still obsessed by teaching myself all these beautiful macrame patterns in my free time.
Thanks to this video. 🙌🏼 ❤

Thank you so much for the idea of using felt. I’m a beginner and this is a first time seeing this. Can you please give me good places to purchase the drift wood?
