The Beadsmith Macrame Board, 11.5 x 15.5 inches, 0.5-inch-Thick Foam, 10x14 Grid for Measuring, Bracelet Project with Instructions Included, Create Macrame and Knotting Creations

This was recommended by a macrame person I follow and since we were having trouble holding our cords in place I ordered on a whim. Pleasantly surprised! It's a very nice quality and looks larger than stated size. I love the grids with inches marked which really help in keeping the cords and knots aligned, which we are not very good at yet. The slots on all four edges is a big plus because many other brands we looked at didn't have them but on the top or top and one side. The price is quite reasonable for this quality and size and I would highly recommend this one over many of the others.

Good for kids projects

This board is well worth the buy. It makes my jewelry crafting so much easier !! The strings are held very well in place. I’m glad I made this purchase. Makes the craft more enjoyable.

The board is stiff, has good return from the pins, and has deep holding slots along the edges, but *man* does it smell like the worst old lady perfume blue candle perfume aisle in a department store you can imagine. It's bad. As soon as I opened the package there was a huge waft. If you can get rid of it, or get past it, or don't have smell anymore, this is the macrame board for you.

I used to do a lot of macrame in college (so 20 years ago) and recently decided to get back into it. I don't have a good work surface available right now, but I saw a macrame board in a book and thought that sounded like just the thing I needed. So I ordered this and I am very happy with it. (For reference, I pretty much only make jewelry, and this is definitely of sufficient size for bracelets and necklaces.) Mine did not smell when I took it out of the package. Perhaps it was a bit older or the manufacturing technique has changed. At any rate, the material, itself, was in good shape. I have always been one to tape instead of pin, and masking tape stuck to this pretty nicely. I did use it as a pincushion for a needle I was using periodically and I can't even see any marks from that, so I'm happy with the self-healing aspect. I didn't think, when I ordered this, that I would use the measurement grid, but it turns out that I did and found that quite handy. Much simpler and faster than pulling out a ruler. I am also a fan of the indentations around the edge. These are perfect for holding thinner cords of the sort you'd use to make jewelry. I didn't need them much for my earliest projects (kept it to about 4 strands and not a complex pattern), but I tried them out and thought they were a nice touch. This is a decent size to hold in your lap although you may want to rest the far edge against a desk or table. It is lightweight and about a half inch thick, plus it is rigid (with a little bit of give). It seems to have a non-slip surface, which is nice. Although I had never even heard of a macrame board before, I am now a big fan of this thing and will be using it a lot.

Nicely made. Perfect for jewlery making!

Love it. Perfect size for making small things.

Vraiment super et pratique.

コルクボードと比較しての感想を言うと、こちらの方がピンを刺した時の安定感が良くてずれにくいので作業しやすい。ボードのサイズがA4より大きく面積が広いため作業しやすい。もうコルクには戻れないほど気に入った。 側面に切れ目があるのは一長一短で、糸を区別するのに便利な反面、必要ないのに糸が入り込む事もあるので作業のリズムが狂ってしまう事がある。 「自己修復式なので表面を傷つけることなくピンを使用できます」と書いてあるから、ピンを刺した穴が消えるのかと思ったら穴はしっかりと残ったまま。長く使い続けていくとどうなるのか気になるところ。 インチの模様は思いのほか使いづらくて、この材質でcmのボードが出て欲しいと節に願う

Het is heel handig in gebruik. Het rook fel bij het openen. Ik heb het ingespoten met textielverfrisser aan de beiden kanten en goed laten intrekken. Daarna heb ik het gedroogd en de geur was voor bijna volledig weg. Na het gebruik van een dag of 2 was de resteerde geur ook verdwenen!

ブレスレットや小物マクラメにちょうど良いサイズです。 安定感と軽さが最高です。

Perfect for what I needed it for
