Macrame for beginner/intermediate

May 3 & 4
1:00 to 5:00pm

Join us for a Tree of Life Macrame Class where we will be designing and knotting a personalized Tree of Life. No two trees will be the same!
We will create the trees on a 12-inch bamboo ring with a light tan-coloured string. This colour pops on any wall!
The knots used are basic and easily learned. The center leaves, branches and trunk will come from your imagination instead of a set pattern so be sure to bring your creative energy to this class!
This class is suitable for beginners but intermediate skill levels are also welcome.
