Indigenous Peoples' Day : Dreamcatcher

 

DIY Dream Catchers 

Most of us probably know that dreamcatcher is a Native American cultural material. Dreamcatcher originated from the Ojibwe people  (a native community of North America). The Ojibwas used dreamcatchers above the bed like a charm to protect people, especially children, from nightmares

Materials

• Base hoop
• Yarns or string
• Beads 
• Faux craft feathers
• Craft glue

I used an old wooden embroidery hoop. With your yarns tie on a color and  make your web. Then add next color and add to web. When finished -then leaves pieces of yarn to tie beads and feathers on to decorate.
