At Mary Maker Studio we understand the importance of offering only the finest macrame supplies. Our wide range of high-quality macrame cords is carefully sourced from top manufacturers, ensuring you have access to the best materials for your projects.

Mary Maker Studio was born from a need of premium supplies at an affordable cost. As both Makers and shoppers... we have your back. Like you, we believe in the power of quality, rather than quantity.

Our premium macrame cord collection features 100% cotton and sustainable, recycled options. Cotton macrame cords are incredibly versatile, offering a soft feel and a range of thicknesses, textures, and colors.

How to know what Macrame Cord is best for your project?

Choosing the right macrame cord for your project can sometimes feel overwhelming, given the variety of options available. However, with a little guidance and experimentation, you will be able to confidently select the perfect cord to bring your creative vision to life.

When starting out in macrame, it's recommended to begin with cords in the 3mm to 5mm range. These sizes strike a balance between flexibility and stability, making them easier to work with as you learn and practice various knotting techniques. We offer a comprehensive range of macrame cords in different thicknesses and materials, allowing you to explore and experiment with ease. Whether you're creating wall hangings, plant holders, dream catchers, or jewellery, our selection of cords will provide the ideal foundation for your macrame projects.

To determine the best macrame cord for your specific project, consider the design you have in mind. If your piece requires intricate details and delicate knots, opt for a finer cord. On the other hand, if you're working on larger-scale projects or items that require added strength, a thicker cord may be more suitable.

Remember, don't be afraid to sample different cords and experiment with various materials, colors, and textures. You find different purposes for different cords, also try to use them how you envision them... exploring your own creativity here is key. This hands-on approach will help you discover your personal preferences and unleash your creativity in unique and expansive ways.

What is the difference between Macrame String, Macrame Rope, Braided Macrame Rope and Macrame Cord?

As you delve deeper into the world of macrame, you'll encounter different terms like macrame string, macrame rope, and macrame cord. While they may seem interchangeable, each of these materials has distinct characteristics and applications.

Macrame String:
Macrame string consists of multiple single strands of very fine thread that is meticulously twisted to create a 1-ply string. This string is perfect for delicate and intricate designs, offering a finer texture that adds elegance to your creations. Whether you're making wall hangings, plant hangers, or other detailed pieces, our premium macrame strings in a variety of colors and thicknesses will meet your creative needs.
Prefered use for: 
Macrame wall hangings, macrame feathers, macrame rainbows, wearable necklaces, fibre art tassels, loom weavings, crochet, xxl knitting and basketry to name a few.

Macrame Rope:
Macrame rope is made by twisting 3 to 4 strands of string (the above) together resulting in a thicker and more robust material with a visible twisted rope like aesthetic. This type of cord is ideal for larger projects where added strength and durability may be required. The twisted strands create a textured effect, especially when decorative fringes are incorporated into your macrame work.
Prefered use for: 
Pot plant hangers, macrame wall hangings, macrame rainbows, macrame workshops, key rings, baby decor items, macrame dresses and wearables to name a few. 

Macrame Braided Rope:
This staple cord is created by interlacing multiple strands in a tightly woven pattern, resulting in a stronger and more robust material. The braided construction forms a stunning zig-zag-like pattern that adds a captivating visual texture to your macrame creations. Not only does the braided rope provide a unique and eye-catching aesthetic, but it also offers enhanced durability and resilience due to its composition. 
Prefered use for:
Pot plant hangers, scandinavian minimalist designs, macrame wearables, basketry,  structured wall hangings and macrame swings to name a few.
