I’m going to give my age away here because I remember making macrame when I was a kid.
Although back then I think we spent our time making hanging baskets!
Today we’re all about easy macrame keychain patterns.
Macrame is a wonderful self-care craft because it’s very methodical and you need to concentrate just on the weaving.
Of course, keychain projects are small enough for children to get involved with because they don’t take too long to make and they can see the fruits of their labor pretty quickly!
The macrame patterns I’m sharing today are all beautiful and the keychains you make can be given as handmade gifts to friends and family.
Or of course, you can keep them all to yourself to keep your keys safe or add to a purse zipper for a boho vibe!
1 | DIY Mini Macrame Keychain
These mini macrame keychains are super cute and don’t take long to make. The design uses just two knots, the lark’s head and the diagonal half hitch knot. There are lots of photos with detailed instructions so if you’ve never tried macrame before this is the tutorial for you!

2 | How to make Macrame Heart Keychain Tutorial
I love the ombre effect on this keychain, which you actually do by painting the yarn after you’ve knotted it! Pink is perfect for the knotted heart design I think!

If you want to take your macrame keychains to the next level try making one of these designs that also incorporate beads and tassels! I really like the way they’ve used more than one color of embroidery thread to tie them off too!

You know kids can have fun with macrame too. How SWEET are these little dolls? They’re simple to make and will make great zipper pulls on pencil cases, lunch bags or even a jacket or backpack!

14 | The Heart Drop of Elsa
Here’s a design that looks so good as a keychain you might actually want to make two and turn them into earrings! It’s such a detailed design with the heart and the beads. It certainly would not look out of place as a pendant around the neck of a certain snow queen!
