How to Hang a Plant in a Macramé Hanger

Macramé plant hangers are more than just a way to display greenery—they’re a blend of art, craft, and nature. With their intricate knots and bohemian charm, they transform any corner into a cozy, stylish sanctuary. If you’ve been wondering how to hang a plant in macramé, here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started, plus a spotlight on our Suncatcher Plant Hanger that adds a magical twist.


🪴 Step 1: Choose the Right Plant

  • Opt for trailing plants like pothos, ivy, or string of pearls for dramatic effect.

  • Compact plants such as succulents or ferns also work beautifully.

  • Make sure your pot has drainage holes to keep your plant healthy.


🧵 Step 2: Select Your Macramé Hanger

  • Macramé hangers come in various lengths and knot styles.

  • Shorter hangers are perfect for small spaces, while longer ones create a statement piece.

  • Neutral cotton cord blends with any décor, but colored cords can add personality.


🔨 Step 3: Secure the Hook

  • Install a sturdy ceiling hook or wall bracket.

  • Ensure it’s anchored properly—plants can get heavy when watered.

  • Test the hook with a gentle tug before hanging your plant.


🌟 Step 4: Place the Pot

  • Slide your pot into the macramé cradle.

  • Adjust the cords so the pot sits evenly and securely.

  • Step back and admire how the knots frame your plant like a piece of art.
