This is how it all began for me: as a mum of two energetic boys, I was deep in the chaos of motherhood—think toys everywhere, sticky fingerprints on every surface, and a never-ending to-do list. But amidst the whirlwind, I craved a little peace, something just for me. That’s when I discovered macramé.
What started as a simple hobby quickly turned into something more. Macramé became my meditation, a way to find calm in the midst of the daily craziness. Picture this: I’m tying knots, trying to keep my focus, while the boys are running around like wild things, turning my yarn into their latest game. It wasn’t exactly the serene environment I imagined, but it was real, and it was ours.
As I continued to create, something beautiful happened. My macramé pieces started to tell our family’s story. Each knot, each design, became a memory—a little piece of us woven into the fabric of our home. The boys loved seeing my work on the walls, proudly declaring, “My mum made that!” It made the mess, the noise, the chaos, all worth it.
Macramé taught me patience, especially when a single tug from tiny hands could undo hours of work. But it also taught me to embrace the imperfections, to find beauty in the unexpected, and to keep going even when things didn’t go as planned. It was a lesson in both art and life.
Now, my home isn’t just a place where we live—it’s a canvas where our story unfolds every day. The laughter, the love, the little moments of joy are all captured in the art I create. And that’s what I want to share with you. Whether you’re a fellow mum, a creative spirit, or someone looking to add a touch of warmth to your space, there’s something special about weaving your story into your surroundings.
So, if you ever need a little inspiration, a bit of humor, or some tips on macramé (or motherhood!), I’m here. Let’s embrace the chaos, find our flow, and create something beautiful together. After all, in this crazy journey of life, it’s the little things that make all the difference.
