Macrame Making A Comeback

October 17, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
Fort Bragg, CA - October 17, 2007 - After seeing its popularity wane since its peak in the 1970s, the art of macrame is making a comeback, with a few new twists. New macrame websites and blogs are popping up, including macramenia.com, which features macrame plant hangers, macrame owls, and indoor plant care books.

Susan Foster is the "macrame master" at macramenia.com and enjoys making the hangers by hand, which are more than just twisted strands of cord. "Indoor plants need a happy spot to thrive, and finding just the right location can be a challenge. Macrame hangers provide you with more natural options to choose from."

"For example, my African Violets prefer to hang by a southern exposure window that has filtered sunlight through a blind. For the most attractive finish without taking any glory from my healthy, happy, and beautiful plants, natural jute cord and hemp macrame plant hangers are simply the best."

Macrame hangers have evolved some from the 1970s. Using hemp, glass beads, and a wider choice of colored, wooden beads are Susan's main contributions to this change.

Her glass beaded hangers were inspired by her stained glass sun catchers. Susan also enjoys making stained glass projects and has found that macrame and stained glass complement each other quite nicely. Soon, she will make macrame hanger-stained glass sets available.

Providing good care of your houseplants is essential, so she offers a selection of recommended indoor plant care books, along with her Top 10 Indoor Plant Survival Tips for free.

Susan Foster has been doing macrame since its heyday of the 1970s and never lost her fondness for the hand-made hangers.
