Celebration Garland DIY Macramé Wall Hanging Project - Modern Macramé

This week's project is the CELEBRATION GARLAND. We photographed this piece on our final day in Copenhagen at the home of Stylist, Rikke Graff Juel. Her home was the perfect backdrop for this beginner macramé project.

To make the Celebration Garland you'll need:

One spool of natural 5mm cotton rope

One bundle of a 5mm contrasting color 

How to make a Celebration Garland DIY Wall Hanging Macramé Project - Modern Macramé

The Celebration garland, is really a series of small wall hangings strung together to create one garland. Play with the pattern, add fringe! Create new versions of wall hangings in your own unique style! Add color to match the decor of your home or party theme.

Check out our book for the full pattern and step-by-step tutorial for this project. Share what you make with us using #modernmacramebook and tagging us @modernmacrame on Instagram. 

This pattern is made using these alternating square knots. You can learn how to make them, and more knots and techniques, on our Youtube Channel!
