🌙 Dreamcatchers

Dreamcatchers are a beautiful and artistic way to capture your dreams and ward off negative energy. Make your own personalized dreamcatcher that adds a unique style to your space!

Materials:

  • An embroidery hoop
  • Twine or yarn
  • Feathers
  • Beads
  • Scissors

How to make a Dreamcatcher:

  1. Wrap your hoop with twine or yarn so that it covers the whole hoop. Tie off the end and cut the excess string.
  2. Cut a long piece of twine and tie it to the top of the hoop. Knot this string several times on the hoop.
  3. Make a web in the center of the hoop by tying the string in a loop around the hoop and pulling it through the loop from underneath. Continue doing this until you have a web-like pattern.
  4. Add feathers, beads, and any other trinkets you want to the dreamcatcher. Tie them on with twine.

⭐️ Tip: Use different colored threads for the web to make your dreamcatcher visually dynamic. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different knots for the web!

  3. Continue knotting the cords in the same pattern, making sure the knots are even.
