You will need to cut eight sections of rope into equal lengths in order to make this fashionable yet straightforward rope hanger.
Depending on the particular plant container you have selected, the appropriate length will vary. Generally speaking, the longer your rope needs to be, the bigger the pot. However, you’ll also need to add a bit extra to account for the knots and plenty extra to hang your planter with.
A few inches before the end, secure all eight strands with a tight knot.
Step 2Secure the rope to the base of the pot
Place the knot in the center of the pot after turning it over, and then split the strands into four groups of two. The bottom of the pot will be divided into equal parts as a result.
Small strips of adhesive tape should be used to fix these strands in position. Then, just past the base’s edge, tie a little knot in each group. These knots ought to be apparent once the job is finished and the pot is placed back upright.
Step 3Create the knots
You are now prepared to begin tying the rope plant hanger together. One rope from the first group and one rope from the next group should be taken, and they should be tied together in a knot. Be sure to place this in the middle of the two upper knots. Continue until the first row is finished, traveling all the way around the pot as you go.
Pull the rope very gently to remove any slack, then use a small piece of sticky tape to hold each knot in place. Although the rope will be kept in place by the tape, it will make succeeding rows easier to knot together when it is eventually removed.
Continue by tying the next row of knots in the same manner. Again, the size of your pot will determine how many rows you need. However, we advise leaving a 1/2 inch space between the last row and the top edge for all projects.
Step 4Tie it together and hang
Last but not least, flip the pot over one more and tie the eight rope strands together in a single knot. You can tie the knot at any desired height. Just make sure that all of the ropes are the same length (therefore allowing your pot to hang level). If they are, cut off any extra, and take off all the adhesive tape.
You have a few alternatives for hanging your brand-new macram plant holder. The rope can be hung directly from the screw hook if you like. Alternatively, you could attach the rope to a wooden ring and hang it there for a more tasteful and polished look.

Ready to begin knotting? Make a chic rope hanging basket for your house or yard by selecting your succulent and stocking up on rope supplies. Also keep in mind that we always like seeing our customers’ creations! We’ll be sure to include some of the best images of the macram plant holders you make using our ropes, strings, and twines on our website and social media pages if you send us some pictures.
Step 1: Cut the Cord
Cut nine pieces of jute twine to the length you want to start. Start with 100 pieces if the hanger doesn’t need to be very long and can hold a plant of ordinary size.
Tie a little string in the middle after folding the strings in half. You should finish up with 18 pieces that are half the length you started with when you hold the strings by that little strand.
To make working on the project easier, hang it from a nail in the wall. (You might accomplish this by removing a picture and working with the nail that held it in place.)
This craft can also be completed on a table. When it is hanging, it is only a little bit simpler.
Step 2: Create Macrame Knots And Braids
To achieve the appropriate length, braid each part separately. This will be around 24 for an extra-long plant hanger. Braid around 14 for just an average length.
Each braid should have a macrame knot at the very end. In this project, relatively basic knots are employed. Simply take the strings, form a circle with them, feed the ends through the hole, and fix in the chosen location.
Next, descend approximately 6 from the braid knot (or less if you are making a tiny one). To create three sections on each side, divide the braid’s bottom in half.
Three from each braid (a total of six) should be tied together to connect one braid to the one above it. Continue doing this in a circle until all three braids are together.
Make another row of knots by going down approximately another 6 (or less if you are constructing a tiny one).

How are potted plants hung?
- The location where you want your planter to hang should be marked. Think about the amount of light the plant you wish to hang there needs. Additionally, be sure to space the holes appropriately if you’re hanging multiple plants in the same location.
- Using the drill bit, create a pilot hole. Make sure your bit is just a little bit smaller than the hook’s screw. This guarantees a tight fit for the hook.
- Put the anchor onto the bolt of the hook such that the wings fold inward if your hook kit contains metal toggles that are spring-loaded. As you insert the bolt into the ceiling, hold the wings together and turn it until the wings open and the hook is fastened.
- Suspend your plant! You can purchase extenders at any garden supply store if the rope or wire on your planter isn’t long enough.
What alternative to a hanging basket is there?
Use wicker baskets or little buckets instead of conventional hanging baskets to hang your plants. Before putting the plant in the wicker basket, pot it in another container. Drill drainage holes in the bottom of plastic buckets and paint or decorate the exterior as desired.
