If you’ve never tried macrame this is a beginners tutorial, so you’re in the right place. This macrame plant hanger uses only simple knots so you don’t have to be an expert to complete it. This hanger works best with small pots, so when you’re shopping for mom, keep that in mind. Succulents are perfect, what’s more they make great gifts since they are easy to take care of and look so nice.

Easy DIY Indoor Macrame Plant Hanger Tutorial

What you’ll need:

• Flower pots
• Rope (one that can be unravelled to create three separate parts)
• Scissors

Firstly, cut two lengths of rope, they need to be the same length. The length will depend on how long you want your hanger to be and also how wide your pots are.

Secondly, tie a knot at one end of the ropes, holding the two pieces together.

Next, unravel the rope to create six smaller pieces.

Now tie three knots, equal distance from the top. Tie the small pieces of rope together to create the three new knots.

Repeat. Create another set of three knots, equal distance from the other three

Now tie one large knot, including all of the threads. This will be the base where your vase will sit.

You can stop here and cut the remaining rope, or if you want to have a double plant hanger, repeat the steps (1-7) to create another set of six knots.

Finally, a single or double macrame plant hanger for mom needs the ends cut to create the tassels.

We admit it, there are a lot of small steps to this craft but we can assure you that they’re easy ones.  The most tedious part is wrapping the moss ribbon around the foam wreath, it can be tough to get the moss in the right place while keeping it even and flat. We found it easiest to go slowly, laying the moss along the foam and securing it with the green thread little bits at a time, using the glue gun is certainly useful.  Once you have placed and secured the moss, all thats needed is to arrange flowers, succulents and Easter decorations.  

What you need to make a DIY Moss Wreath:

• Foam wreath
• Moss ribbon
• Thin green thread
• Artificial succulents
• Artificial flowers
• Easter decorations (bunny faces, eggs or chicks)
• Ribbon
• Hot glue gun
• Floral foam
• Floral wire

How to Make a Succulent Moss Wreath – Easter Decoration Idea

Firstly, wrap the foam wreath with moss ribbon, one layer at a time. Use green thread and a glue gun to secure the moss in place.  

Secondly, add the ribbon by wrapping it around the top of the wreath. Wrap it about two to three times to create a thick, secure ribbon accent.  Cut it when you are happy and glue gun the end the back of the wreath.  

Next, cut a piece of the floral wire to secure the floral foam to the wreath, using the glue gun to help secure it. Place it slightly off centre.

Now, begin to add the flowers and succulents to the wreath by using the glue gun.  Some flowers and succulents will have wire attached, use this to stick them into the foam and use the glue to secure them.

Finally, add the Easter decorations, cute Easter bunnies, chicks or sparkling Easter eggs can be used. Almost any Easter decoration will complement this perfect succulent wreath. What’s more, you could use this wreath all year by placing Easter decorations non-permanently.
