Woven Stories: Macramé Tapestries with Reclaimed Wood

pxl 20250817 215901470


These macramé tapestries are an exploration of texture, space, and second chances. Each piece is created using reclaimed frames or found driftwood, allowing the history of the materials to become part of the finished work.



Using half hitch knots in varying patterns, I intentionally build open areas within the design—spaces meant to invite weaving. Through these openings, I layer in different yarns and fibers, playing with contrast, softness, and movement. Smooth cotton cords sit beside plush or textured yarns, creating visual rhythm and tactile interest.

No two tapestries are the same. The natural variations in the wood, combined with the freedom of knot placement and weaving, make each piece a quiet collaboration between structure and spontaneity. These wall hangings celebrate imperfection, reuse, and the beauty that emerges when old materials are given new life.
