These are darling and would enhance a wrapped package as well as make a wonderful gift of four for the tree.
Thank you!ReplyCancel

Hi, A question about the macrame cord you use for the trees. In the photos it looks like a multi strand braided cord. The link you provide goes to a 3-strand twisted cord on Amazon (which isn’t available ATM). I’m wondering that these are different cords, and would the result with the frayed tree be the same with the twisted cord? The braided cord seems to fray out nicely, judging by the photos, but would the twisted strands fray out as nicely? I really like that look.ReplyCancel

  Hi Deb! Good catch – I will update the link. The cord I like for this project is from Michaels, but we also sell kits with everything you need!ReplyCancel

Love these! Have you ever tried a thicker cord?ReplyCancel
- prettylifegirlsDecember 3, 2021 - 3:25 pm
  I haven’t! I imagine it would work, but the amounts needed would be different! Let us know if you try!ReplyCancel

I just tried the tree and snowflakes as I am new to macrame but was easy to follow ur directions. I didn’t see ahead of time what cord you use do I used a 3 mm twisted and it’s harder to comb out. Tomorrow I’m going to try a. 4 mm. Thank uReplyCancel
- prettylifegirlsDecember 8, 2021 - 9:14 am
  I’m so glad the directions were helpful! The combing is definitely the most time-consuming part – just keep at it! Thank you Peggy!ReplyCancel

I have made several of the little trees, but my cord isn’t as stiff, so the limbs are droopy. Any suggestions?ReplyCancel

  Hi Rhonda! There are stiffening sprays you can find at the craft store!ReplyCancel
