Yarn consumption
For each big Terracotta-pot (inner-Ø approx. 7 cm) you need 12 threads of approx. 2 m length and for each small pot (inner-Ø approx. 4 cm) 12 threads of approx. 1.5 m length.Tying instructions for a Terracotta-pot with hanging basket
Turn the pot upside down and divide the threads into 3 strands of 4 threads each
Put three coloured rings on the upside down pot, thread the threads of the strands alternately over and under the rings. You get a great look, at the same time the rings are fixed by the threads on the pot. Nevertheless, the rings should be additionally secured to the Terracotta-pot with Handicraft glue .
As soon as the glue has dried, 4 strands are connected to Macramé-strands (weaver knots). After about 3.5 cm, pull a Pearl onto the middle threads and then either tie further or secure the Pearl with a normal knot.
Design each hanging basket individually!
Make the strands of each hanging basket according to the same pattern, making sure that the knots and beads are placed at the same height if possibleHowever, vary the knotting pattern on the next pots you create: change the length of the knotted strands, the number and placement of wooden beads.
The arrangement of several pots is especially interesting if one pot is additionally decorated with painted wooden rings
As soon as the strands are long enough to serve as an optimal suspension, simply knot all strands together.
Hang the pots evenly spaced apart in different lengths
How do you succeed in arranging hanging decorations as harmoniously as possible?
Several hanging baskets of flowers can be hung on a wooden pole, for example. This in turn can be attached to a hook on the ceiling or e.g. in a tree by means of a suspension strap.
