Benefits of Macramé

There are countless benefits to macramé, and art in general.
Below we have categorized and highlighted some of the many ways "the art of knotting"
can enhance your lifestyle, bring people together, and improve overall wellbeing.

Macramé also aligns with all 8 dimensions of the wholistic wellness wheel in different ways:
See the image of the wholistic wheel below. Art falls into the intellectual dimension.

The word macramé could be derived from the Andalusian-Arabic version macramia (مكرمية), believed to mean "striped towel", "ornamental fringe" or "embroidered veil".
Other schools of thought indicate the reference macramé originates from
Turkish word makrama which means "napkin" or "towel".

Macramé offers a multi-sensory experience that fosters sensory regulation and is accessible, flexible, and beneficial to individuals with unique and diverse sensory and processing needs and preferences. Our creative workshops can curated for one-to-one instruction as well as for small or large groups (indoor or outdoor). We also offer add-ons to help enhance your workshop experience.

Comfort & Sustainability

Our macramé workshops are curated to be offer a welcoming, accommodating, and relaxing experience where we
keep safety & sustainability in mind.

We strive to use natural fibers and materials whenever possible, and
we generally work with more nude, earthy, and neutral-colored
macramé cord to prevent the use of chemically treated or dyed textiles
that can be harmful to people and the environment.

While we take this approach, those who use their own materials
after booking our workshops are free to use the
color and material that works best for them.

We do our best to reduce waste and we promote reusing, recycling,
repurposing, and redistributing unused materials whenever possible and
encourage those who join us to do so the same.

If you're artistic, conscious, or curiously creative let's connect!
