My name is Taryn, founder of Taryn Leigh Creations. I started TLC in 2019. TLC were my initials before I got married and I always liked that it stood for “tender loving care”, so it was an appropriate name for my Macrame Business as a lot of love and care goes into each and every creation.
Once deciding on a design, I then have to work out how much cord is needed, it’s no fun running out halfway! The knotting process can be quite lengthy depending on how detailed the design is.
I use mostly 100% cotton Cord imported from Overseas. It makes for great tassels and fringes. The driftwood the Macrame wall hangings are hung from is sourced from all over South Africa.
I enjoy the process of making Macrame, the fact that taking cord or string and knotting it into a pattern can make something beautiful. My favorite part is seeing the creations I have made in the homes of my customers!
