Four cactus green, then eight white and then the last four green are larks head knotted over the bridge. This can be made this way or drop the shoulder straps and start the body right from a wooden grasp handle to have a hand bag.Īfter constructing the handles, I crossed over one left strand to the right strap and one right over to the left to bridge the two straps. Isn’t this different? I really enjoyed making this purse. I’ll get back to you on this I’m still working out the details. Incidentally, before we took down the walls, I had another idea to use this same pattern for a hammock just a little shorter width and a little longer length. They will fit along side the rolled walls and the pop up tent. The wood boards will be held together with lag bolts and wing nuts easy to set up and take down. They are held up with a bungy strap on each side at the top and when you are finished with them, just roll them up and put it into the back of the pickup track.

Not only does it look nice, but it is very easy to transport.

I am sending out applications for just two craft fairs this summer and I can not wait to set this up. He will be bolting the legs to ten foot panels to keep the legs straight and we will loop two tiny bungy straps (one on each side)between the bottom of each wall to the wood frame with eyelet screws (not shown) to keep the panels straight. Here is a trick my husband picked up at todays venue for the bottom. As a matter-of-fact he stopped by the venue to see the finished work as he had promised he was impressed. He had to ask what the heck we were doing. You should have seen the man in the check out aisle behind us when we purchased 39-100 foot bundles we took two back. There is about 3,700 feet of clothes line for these three panels. They will not be for sale, but just as an accent to add to the theme. Because every craft fair I go to, at least 10 people make fun of them. To this picture, I will be adding one macrame plant hanger, with fake plant, in each corner.

I can still use the same hooks, they just sit on top of each square knot for strength. But I wanted something uniform and befitting the theme of Macrame. It was great to use hooks on the lattice to hang each purse and be able to move them around as they sold. Last year we toted 4’x8’sheets of plastic lattice panels and long pieces of wood to screw them to (see craft show tab).

I needed a better way to display purses at craft shows and art fairs. This is so cool, even if I do say so myself.
