Fearless DIY: Macrame Hammock Chair

By Mandi 06/15/2015

Hey guys!! How was you weekend? We went up to SLC for a little farewell party for some friends and it was an absolute blast. I took a 3+ hour trip to IKEA (and met so many of you!! Hi new real life friends!!) and spent some much needed time with my wonderful parents.

There is an all new episode of Fearless DIY on The Design Network today! A macrame hammock chair (!!!) I’ve been itching to do this for such a long time. You can pop over and check it out here!!

In the spirit of full disclosure, after we shot this video I went back and added 6 more cords to the design to widen the seat. It was just a little too narrow before and when you’d sit on it it would shrink up. We were on a mega tight shooting schedule (real life!) but if you recreate it I’d absolutely widen it. Its for sure the favorite chair to eat popsicles in the backyard in. Any other Otter Pop addicts out there? Its the official treat of summer at the Gubler’s.

  1. Love that you used copper in this, I’ve been eyeing it up at my local diy store for ages, thinking of all the things i could use it for if I could just get over my fear of cutting it!

  2. I have to make this I love it so much! Actually I need to make two, one for me and a tiny one for my cat.
