THE STORY

The Story...
Welcome! I am so excited to share my new passion with you!
My macrame story...
It all started in the early 70s as a teenager growing in Puerto Rico. I found a few books about macramé and I began practicing and learning and before I knew it I started making money for all my personal things. I was passionate and very creative in my designs. It became my number one hobby and it has lasted a lifetime.
I continued to make them thru the 80’s while I lived in New York but between raising my girls, working full time and attending school it became harder and harder to spend time making them, so one day I packed them away...😔
Couple of years ago, while looking thru my storage unit I found my old box of macrame supplies and found that I had enough cord and beads to make a special basket for one of my girls, which now hangs in her beautiful kitchen.
Fast forward to a couple of months ago while staying with my daughter for a couple of weeks, she inspired me to pick it up again by purchasing all kinds of supplies and enticing her girlfriends to purchase them.... that did it!!!
That’s all it took! I began making baskets with intricate designs and each one unique. I made wall and mason jars hangings and I haven’t stopped since then. I’m so glad it’s back in my life. Back then it was my hobby but now is simply therapeutic to my soul. It’s truly a passion for me and one I want to share with you!
So please, look around at the different ideas and let me know if I can design the perfect piece for your home, whether a basket, wall hanging, table runner or wedding backdrop.
