Our Story
Hi! I'm Annie.
First and foremost, I'm a mom to two incredible tiny humans who somehow manage to keep me laughing, humbled, and constantly wondering where my scissors disappeared to.
Before I learned how to tie hundreds of decorative knots, I learned how to solve engineering problems. Somewhere along the way, life became wonderfully chaotic, and I discovered that creating with my hands was exactly what my heart needed.
So now my résumé looks something like this:
❤️ Mom.
⚙️ Engineer.
🧵 Macramé enthusiast.
☕ Professional reheater of the same cup of coffee.
🔍 Finder of missing shoes.
Not necessarily in that order.
Macramé Madhouse wasn't born because I wanted to build a huge business.
It started because I needed a creative outlet.
A quiet little corner of life that belonged to me.
A place where tangled cord somehow became something beautiful.
Ironically... I ended up building a website too.
Turns out engineering comes in handy in unexpected places.
Every piece you see here is handmade by me, usually somewhere between snack requests, bedtime stories, and someone yelling, "Mom, watch this!"
And honestly?
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Our Mission
Life is messy. Create anyway.
That's really what this little business is about.
Not perfection.
Not perfectly organized homes.
Not perfectly quiet craft rooms.
Just creating beautiful things anyway.
Whether that's a handmade plant hanger...
Learning to paint...
Planting a garden...
Building your own website...
Or finally trying that hobby you've been putting off for years.
Life rarely gives us the perfect time.
Create anyway.
If you found something you love here, I'd be honored to make it for you.
And if you didn't buy anything today...
I hope you leave with a smile, a little inspiration, and a reminder that beautiful things can grow from beautifully imperfect lives.
Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet.
— Annie
Motherhood pays the bills emotionally.
Engineering pays the bills logically.
Macramé keeps me sane.
