About the tutor Lucy from Hearts and Pearls is a self-taught macramé artist based in Falmouth. Grown from a hobby, her business specialises in propagating rare trailing semi-succulent plants, including the popular String of Hearts and String of Pearls, and through this she first explored making decorative plant hangers from macramé yarn. Having experimented with various projects over the years, she now runs macramé workshops in the local area and designs tutorials for others to learn the basics of this historic art form, some of which are available in the Craft Barn gift shop. This workshop is run by Lucy Symonds (Hearts and Pearls), an independent tutor. Cornish Craft Barn hosts the workshop and takes bookings and payments on Lucy’s behalf.
