Whilst we’ve all spent a lot of time at home this year, have you ever tried macrame classes and DIY macrame kits to bring a new dimension to your home? If you’re bored at home or simply looking for new things to do at home in Australia, let us tell you about the new trend of macrame, and why it’s become so popular in recent times.
What is macrame?
Have you seen macrame being sold at the local markets or in your favourite shops but unsure what it actually is? The boho vibes of the cotton rope designs do look pretty, but if you’re unsure what they are actually used for, we’re here to explain the process.
Macrame has actually been around for thousands of years, which leads back to the Babylonian era. Even in the Victorian era, people enjoyed working with this art form to transform their homes. Fast forward to the modern-day and macrame has become increasingly popular for most Australian homes.
An easy way to update your home
While there are many different forms of macrame, you can be as creative as you like when it comes to updating your home. If you’re looking to transform your home on a budget and want to create a beautiful and calming atmosphere, then you need to try a DIY macrame kit!
Learn how to make beautiful plant hangers, wall hangers and much more when you take one of our online macrame classes. If you’re looking to bring more textures or natural fibres into your home, you’ll be able to do this with a macrame wall hanging kit or a macrame plant hanging kit. Hang your own work proudly in your home and ditch buying from large corporate companies.
DIY macrame kits are environmentally friendly!
We’re all aware we need to do our bit for the climate right now, but getting started can be a bit overwhelming. We recommend starting your environmental transformation at home and replace some of your materials with our sustainable DIY macrame kits.
Because macrame has become so popular recently, you might find many sold in the shops have been made of synthetic fibres which is harmful to the environment. Instead, all of the materials you’ll use in our online macrame for beginners classes are made from 100 percent natural fibres such as hemp and cotton. Not only will you be able to create your very own custom made design, but you’ll also be able to live and breathe in more natural fibres for healthier living.
Bring more plants into your home
You’ll be able to update your home with a more boho, beach vibe, and our virtual macrame classes will encourage you to bring more plants into your life. Whilst many people are unsure how to look after plants, it can be quite confusing knowing when to water them and whether they need to be in shade or sunlight. Rather than not bringing plants into your home, you’ll be inspired to fill you own custom made macrame plant hanger with a gorgeous plant to match to bring my depth into your home. Whilst there are plenty of plant watering apps to keep track of when to water your plants, imagine the many beautiful plant hangers you can create and put all over your home to really bring the spaces alive. You can choose from various different ropes to create your custom made unique macrame plant hanger to suit the palette of your home too.
It’s good for your mental health
It’s no wonder why macrame has become incredibly popular with Australians. Not only does it bring a gorgeous beach vibe into your home, but the mental health benefits are also huge!
Our live-streaming macrame classes have amazing health benefits which help you stop and take time out of daily life for yourself. We all know how important mental health is right now, but if you knew how beneficial it is to take an hour out for yourself once in a while, you would totally do it.
Whilst learning macrame for beginners is a meditative experience, you’ll be surrounded by like-minded people in Australia. Not only can you form new friendships, but you’ll also feel relaxed and able to wind down during our online macrame class after a long day.
As we aim to encourage you to take an online art class to bring out your creative side, we hope you might find a new passion or hobby from it. When you take time out to do something you truly love, you’ll see long-lasting benefits. You’ll feel more energised, be able to sleep better and feel much happier. It’s a win all round!
Build stronger relationships
Our macrame classes are the perfect way to bring new skills into your life which you can use to transform your home or give as presents to loved ones. Invite family and friends who might not live nearby to join you in an online class so you can reconnect and build stronger relationships.
DIY macrame kits are also perfect for online hens party ideas to help the bridal party start the day in the most relaxing way before the party kicks off! And, they equally make an excellent and unique online team building activity. When your team are put in a situation out of their comfort zones, they’ll be able to form stronger relationships much more quickly. Plus, everyone will feel so proud of their creative skills in making beautiful macrame for their homes!
How do our DIY macrame kits work?
If you’re new to online macrame classes, all you need to do is pick the right class for you and we’ll do the rest. We’ll then send you a DIY macrame kit packed lovingly by our local Australian makers and teachers, delivered straight to your front door. Inside you’ll find a beautiful DIY macrame kit which will include all of the tools and material you would have been given if you attended the class in person.
