Cherry Blossom macrame, girl on a swing macrame, macrame tree

A Springtime macrame wall decoration sharing some of the joys of this pretty time of the year.

The Cherry tree is full of pale pink flowers which make a striking contrast to the dark reddish brown of the tree trunk. Hanging from one of the branches is a swing, on which sits a little girl wearing a pretty pink dress and dark red shoes. She has a garland of little pink flowers in her hair and has her feet crossed as she gently sways happily.

Below the tree the bright yellow daffodils have pushed their way up between the roots and proudly display their trumpets whilst the daisies scatter through the grass.

Each blossom flower has been made up of individual petals which have been attached together with a bead in the centre. the blossoms have then been fixed to the tree.

Florists wire runs throughout the design.

I have used a combination of everlasto100% cotton string and cotton bakers twine, 100% recycled cotton and a small amount of bamboo string to make this macrame wall decoration.

the cherry blossom tree is attached to a 30cm bamboo ring which has been wrapped in a natural cotton rope.

The whole design is approx. 43cm high by 42cm wide. As the flowers contain wire in their stems they can be gently manipulated into position.

I have added a photo which gives an idea of the overall size and also some with different coloured backgrounds so you can see the difference they make.

This macrame decoration will look beautiful wherever it is displayed.
