{"product_id":"lrg-macrame-pot-holder-green","title":"Lrg Macrame Pot Holder - Green","description":"\u003cp\u003eA moss-green macramé holder that lifts a plant off the shelf and lets it hang in the open air, the leaves spilling over a woven cradle with a thick tassel swinging below. It is made for the larger houseplant you want to treat as a focal point rather than tuck into a corner.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe green is a deep, muted olive, closer to moss than to leaf green, so it sits quietly behind bright foliage instead of competing with it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA wide band of decorative knotwork wraps the cradle, with small woven shapes repeating around it, so the base of the plant has its own pattern to look at.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong cords rise from the cradle and gather into a single knotted loop at the top, which you hang from your own hook.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thick, full tassel hangs beneath, and it moves with every passing draught.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRaised like this, a trailing plant can fall freely on every side. A pothos shows off its variegated leaves from below and from the side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCord, knots and the cradle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe holder is built from thick cord worked in knots, from the woven band at the cradle up to the loop at the top. Below the band the cord is drawn into a rounded, bowl-like base for the pot to sit in, with the tassel gathered underneath. The cord is chunky, so the knotwork has a clear, tactile texture rather than a fine, lace-like finish. It is also an indoor piece, best hung in a living room, hallway or bedroom.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHanging and fitting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlip a pot into the cradle and bring the cords up to a sturdy ceiling hook or bracket. This is the larger size in the range, intended for a sizeable pot, so it suits a plant with some presence. Because the cradle is rounded and the cords are long, give the pot a moment to settle and check that it sits level before you step back. Test with the full, watered weight of your pot before relying on a heavy ceramic one. Water the plant at the sink, let it drain, then hang it again.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA craft with long roots\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMacramé is the art of decorative knotting, and its name is often traced to the Arabic \u003cem\u003emigramah\u003c\/em\u003e, a fringed veil. It was long a sailor's craft before it returned in the 1970s as a staple of boho interiors, and it still carries a slow, hand-worked feel. Hanging a plant also has a practical logic: lifted into the light and air, it becomes a living piece of design that draws the eye upwards and makes a room feel taller.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is intended for indoor hanging, where the knotted cord keeps its shape and colour away from rain and strong weather.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does it look best?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIn a bright corner, beside a window or at the end of a hallway, where there is room for the plant to trail and for the tassel to hang clear of furniture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size pot does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the larger of the two sizes, designed for a bigger pot than the standard holder. Measure your pot's width against the cradle before hanging, and choose a plant that sits comfortably within it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SHAMTAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67983794143546,"sku":"MacP-31","price":12.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/8307\/0266\/files\/lrg-macrame-pot-holder-green-cover.jpg?v=1794678939","url":"https:\/\/shamtam.com\/products\/lrg-macrame-pot-holder-green","provider":"SHAMTAM: Slow Living Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
