Create beautiful macrame projects that invoke the sacred elements
of Earth, Air, Water, Fire and Spirit. The idea of classical
'elements' is common to many belief systems including Ancient
Greek, Egyptian, Babylonian, Hinduism and Buddhism, as well as
Chinese and Japanese philosophies. The five elements of the Pagan
religion Wicca represent the five points of the pentagram, a
powerful sacred symbol. No matter what your beliefs, paying
attention to the forces of nature can bring a greater sense of
spirituality and calm to your life, which is equally true of the
craft of macrame, which like all handicrafts has proven benefits
for wellbeing. This unique and beautiful book celebrates each of
the Earth's sacred elements with projects that even beginners to
macrame can tackle with ease. In nature, each element has its own
specific properties, colours and stones associated with it, which
these projects incorporate to dramatic effect. The 20 projects
include mooncatchers, wall hangings, home accessories and
jewellery, which all draw their inspiration from nature and the
elements. Many of the projects have crystals incorporated into
them, for the good vibrations and healing energy they bring. You'll
also learn how to dip-dye macrame for wonderful ombre effects and
work with a variety of different coloured cords to bring beauty and
interest to your pieces. Make a tree of life hoop to connect with
the earth, a mooncatcher to protect you during sleep, a hanging
fruit bowl to feed and nourish you, and a plant hanger to purify
your air. Make a necklace to bring out your inner goddess, a
crystal suncatcher to capture your fire, or some coasters for your
altar candles to sit on. With 20 projects to choose from you will
find a whole host of ways to enjoy macrame in a new intentional,
spiritual light. Author Rebecca Millar is best known as the creator
of Vanir Creations, who has amassed a huge online following for her
dreamy macrame hoops and moon catchers. Entirely self-taught,
Rebecca now generously shares her secrets in this book, which
demystifies the craft with simple explanations of the knots and
techniques required.
