As wild as social media can get, it is also one of the most magical tools we have. From sparking new friendships to discovering rad small businesses, it is a treasure trove of inspiration. Lately, I have stumbled upon a gem: Meg’s Modern Macrame.

I first found Meg on Instagram and honestly, you could feel her energy through her posts. Some people just radiate good vibes and Meg is one of them.

I love supporting creatives who are chasing their dreams and doing what feels right in their heart. We connected instantly. She is a breath of fresh, artsy air in a sometimes-too-filtered world.

From Passion to Handmade Business

Originally known as CuzMegsCreations, Megan Raleigh turned her love for crafting into a thriving business. When I asked Meg about her journey, here is what she shared

“I have always been a crafty girl and started painting in college. During the pandemic, I began crafting items for myself and friends, things that were practical for essential oils. Everyone wanted them and that is when my business took off. I started as CuzMegsCreations but eventually focused on macrame after learning and mastering the skill. I am completely self-taught and have been running Meg’s Modern Macrame for 2 years now, almost at 34k Instagram followers, and I am just getting started.”

Her story is the perfect reminder that you should chase your creative dreams.

Shop Intentionally and Support Local

In a world obsessed with cheap hauls, it is more important than ever to shop intentionally and support local artists. Handmade items like Meg’s macrame keychains, bookmarks, and boho home pieces are unique, meaningful, and built to last.

• Unique and personal
• Supports local artists and small businesses
• Adds character and charm to your home or life
