I had an absolute blast making these! 😊 To ensure your baubles hold their shape, I recommend using a stiffer cord, like a four-strand twisted cord. And here's a nifty tip: when you're knotting your macrame baubles, be sure to tie those square knots really tight. This will keep your baubles looking delightful and ready to dazzle. Want a bit of extra insurance? Consider using hairspray to set your bauble's shape or even employ wire as a core when creating those square knots. With these tricks up your sleeve, your baubles will be the stars of your Christmas tree.

🧵 Important Macrame Cord Tip! 🧵

When it comes to macrame, one thing to keep in mind is that cord lengths can vary. You might have noticed that even when following a pattern or tutorial, the cord provided doesn't always match up perfectly. But don't worry, it's not you; it's just the nature of the craft!

Here's why:

Tension and Spacing: Macrame is all about precision, and the tension and spacing of your knots can affect how much cord you use. Slight variations in your technique can make a difference in the length you need.

Different Cord Manufacturers: There are various macrame cord manufacturers, and each may have slight differences in the cord's thickness or stretchiness. These variations can impact how much cord you use.

To make sure you have enough cord for your project, especially when attempting a new pattern or tutorial, I always advise cutting a bit extra. It's better to have a little extra cord than to run out in the middle of your project.

So, don't be surprised if your actual cord lengths differ slightly from what's provided in a tutorial or pattern. It's all part of the creative journey! Happy knotting! 🌟🪢 #MacrameCordTips #CraftingAdvice #MacrameMagic

Enjoy! ❤
