Planted Knot (@planted_knot ) Célia Hayet Célia started macrame when she was pregnant with her second child 2 years ago. She fell in love with the simplicity of this art and the fact that that with only a few knots there are infinite possibilities to create. She also likes being able to use varied colours and textures for her beautiful creations. Going on a hunt for driftwood is one of her favourite activities to do with her family which gets incorporated into her pieces. She uses nature as a great source of inspiration. Célia is working towards a website for next year but also plans to keep planted knot as simple as possible to continue freely with her creations.
