Ronaldo Manoel

I am originally from Brazil (Imbituba, Santa Catarina). I have lived in the USA since 1999, originally in Florida and now Massachusetts. I have been designing and creating with Macrame since 1984 when I lived in Brazil. My current focus is on creating clothing and I have made dresses, vests, costumes, Jewelry (necklaces & bracelets), sandals, purses and belts. The clothing I'm currently creating and making are my favorites. Most of the Macrame media that I'm using consists of cotton and hemp threads/fibers. I also use a variety of glass, acrylic, metal, and wood beads. I also use stone and shell materials to create my designs. All of my designs are created in my mind and are made without any patterns. Everything I make is unique and one of a kind.
