Macramé Jewellery: 20 Stylish Modern Projects Using Simple Knots - Paperback
by Isabella Strambio (Author)
Create 20 stunning, contemporary macramé jewelry pieces and accessories from bestseller Isabella Strambio.
Publishers Weekly: "Macramé artist Strambio (Macramé for the Modern Home) shows how to create knotted jewelry in this chic guide... Those eager to try macramé would do well to start here". Just as macramé homeware has been given a contemporary, stylish makeover in recent years, here we do the same with jewelry. Ideal for beginners - and a perfect addition to the series - this book contains 20 contemporary jewellery projects, including necklaces, pendants, earrings, bracelets and headbands. As in her first book, Isabella is committed to working with 100% recycled cotton string, to ensure that these items can make you feel good, as well as look good. She uses natural dyes to give her projects a delicate and stylish look but, of course, strings of any colour could be used, and using strings of different weights will also give different results. As well as providing 20 wonderful designs, the book will also cover the 5 knots needed in the techniques section. This book is ideal for beginners or people who are keen to give the craft a try, but who might be nervous about committing to a wall hanging and 200m of string at the outset; the projects are achievable yet stylish, and require very little outlay for tools or materials.Isabella Strambio is a self-taught macramé and natural dye artist. She is half Italian and half Japanese and she grew up by the sea in Italy. At 18, she moved to the UK to learn English and study Interior Design.
Isabella has always been attracted to design, hand-made products, natural materials and textures, and her passions are reflected in her work. She is also a big advocate of using recycled materials for her macramé work and food scraps for her natural dyeing. She started her blog www.twome.co.uk, to document her personal journey to learn 12 new crafts in 12 months. In 2017, she took the leap and quit her career as an Interior Designer to work full-time on her small creative business.
She has been featured in the Sunday Telegraph, the UK TV series Kirstie's Handmade Christmas and regularly writes macramé tutorials for magazines like Mollie Makes, In the Moment, Hobbycrafts and Origin. In 2019, her Natural Dyed Japanese Apron was one of the finalists for the Etsy Design Award. She runs workshops, events and teambuilding classes in London and across the UK. She also teaches macramé and natural dyeing online for people who cannot attend her workshops.
