Hey guys! I’ve got a super fun 3 feather wall hanging tutorial for you today. Let’s get started!
Cut 3 pieces of rope, each piece is 35 inches long. Fold each piece in half and attach each to your piece of driftwood using a Lark’s Head knot.
Feather 1 (left side)
Cut 30 pieces of rope, each piece is 8 inches long. Fold the first piece in half and attach it to the left two strands of rope using a Cow Hitch knot so that the rope is hanging off the left side.

Attach the second piece so that the rope is hanging off the right hand side. Continue to attach the rest of the pieces, alternating as you go.
Feather 2 (centre)
Cut 34 pieces of rope, each piece is 8 inches long. Attach each piece to the two strands in the middle of your work using the same process as the first feather.
Feather 3 (right side)
Repeat the exact same process you used for Feather 1 (cut 30 pieces of rope, each piece is 8 inches long).
Brush out each feather. If it is easier you can take the feathers off of your piece of driftwood to brush them out and cut them and then add them back to the driftwood.
You will scratch the surface underneath the feathers when brushing them out so I recommend using a surface that you don’t mind scratching up a bit.
Tip: To make sure that the feather hangs straight I will push my Cow Hitch Knots close together to give the hanging a little more structure.
Tie an overhand knot at the bottom of each of your 3 feathers using the two middle strands.
Repeat this process with the other two feathers.
Cut each feather to shape. Using a comb is not necessary but I find it helps to alternate between cutting and brushing so that I do not missing cutting any strands. The final size of my feathers are roughly 4 inches wide (2 inches of rope on each side) and 10 inches long for the left and right feathers, 11 inches long for the centre feather.
Repeat the same process with the other two feathers. I did not add felt to the back or adhesive spray as I found these feathers to be small enough that they hold their shape on their own.
To hang this wall hanging I added a piece of rope to the top and tied it on both sides with a constrictor knot.

Thank you for this! One question, my feathers end up looking so not fluffy. I dont know if I have cheap cord or if my brush is too strong? Help!!
This is absolutely FANTASTIC! I have a Native American Wall, as I am part Native American! This will make it complete and add that final touch I've been looking for!!! Thank You!! 🏹🏹🏹
Yeah theyre ahead of the game, flying saucer
I tried this, trouble I found was that when you brush cord out it just flops downward. I had to purchase a can of material stiffener to keep feather in shape.. I've watched a few of these now, only a few tell you how to remedy this, some use stiffener, others use a felt backing. how does the ones on here stay in place?
Beautiful! I will have to make one now! Lol Thanks for sharing
I just made it and I love how it looks! Thank you so much!😌 I wish I can show you
Started using scissors to cut and then I remembered I have a Fiskers wheel cutting tool! Life saver!
I thought the same when watching this video Thanks for the confirmation I assumed it worked well
Its amazing stay connected
Thank you for this tutorial. You make it look possible for us to attempt it! What is the total amount of string we would need to complete this project?
I’m moving into a new place and I’m looking to add a few things to make it feel more homey. I’ve always been a crafty girl, so I’m excited to get into Macrame, I’m so glad I found your channel! Your work is beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us!!
This macramé tutorial was a game-changer for me! I've noticed feather wall hangings all over Pinterest, and I was curious if it would be a doable project. I loved every minute of it. By the way, we featured your video in a round-up post on our website. Keep up the fantastic work!
Hello!! Im new on your channel and I fell in love with this design. I have never tried macrame and since i really like this I want to give it a try. I was wondering if you could tell me how many yard of rope will I need to make this design?
So pretty, couldn’t believe how easy this is to make. Use rotary cutter to shape so don’t have to lift off table to cut and disturb cutting angles
Thistledown treasures I happen to have the rotary cutter! Thanks for the idea :)
Thank you for the share that was beautiful ❤️ can't wait to try and make one
Hi! I don’t understand the hanging part. I watched the video, but your final piece doesn’t have the x on it from the hanging part. Help!
Your tutorials are great; but that background noise!?! Whistles blowing?!?
Which thread?
This is so pretty can't wait to try them. I haven't done macrame for a long time, it is always so relaxing for me.
I'm glad to hear that. I'm looking for something relaxing I'd like to do. I think my health depends on it.
Muy bonito trabajo gracias por compartir 😊
It sure would have been much easier to take them off the wood!
Looks like you're struggling to comb.
I’m so excited to virtually meet you. I have been a macrame artist in the 70’s and you have rekindled my love for macrame!
Wowowow!!!! How stunningly beautiful. Thanks for teaching this! ❤
Beautiful , but I was wondering where you get you wood for the hangers. Like can you use driftwood or do you buy them. Thanx in advance. Hugz
Thank you! I find my driftwood on the beach or make my own with branches I find in the park/forest. I have a tutorial on how to make your own driftwood on my channel if you're interested! I believe you can also purchase driftwood on Etsy.
LotsofKnots Canada oh good. I will search for your tutorial then. Thank you. Hugz
Piękne 😍😍😍😍jaka długość jest tych długich sznurków A jaka krótkich i ile sztuk? Pozdrawiam
I have some cord that is not the best. It’s cheap lol. Can I use spray starch to give it more body?

Tan lindo trabajo, una buena terapia en estos días de invierno. Saludos desde Chile
Shared on fb. This is great. Thanks a million.
I have always wonder, do I take the sticks from the garden, and if I do, do I cote them with some varnish or top cote?
If I dont have a cat brush, Is there any other tool I can use for the feathers?
Your hair brush
Can I use normal thin comb to separate those strands?
Very nice it is what an idea.i like it very much when I saw this video my finger immediately move like and subscribe button.
I love it beautiful thank you l will make one...🤩😘😍💖🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love your work keep moving forward
Flip 2 over to the other side while you comb 1
Would these work with regular yarn? Like acrylic yarn?
Beautiful, so unique! Thank you for your great instruction!
Love this ❤
Toooo cool I love these feathers💜💜.
where did you find the cotton string?
You can find online or at some local thread shop.
so beautiful！👍
What can i use instead of brush? I don't have that brush so do you have any alternative element?
Thank you for posting! I made one but i think my cotton was too thin. I'll be trying another one with thicker material.
Thank you! That is beautiful - I am going to make one!
fantastic ! Thank you so much.
lovely! what kind of spray?
Mine went limp and sad. Any suggestions on stiffening sprays?
Please let me ask, how can the leaf be fixed like that?
What is that machine that u have used to make it a feather
love this channel so much! I 💗💖💓 macrame and have been doing it for a while now. this was such a great, simple project to do!
