The beads on the web are of the 7 directions thus calling upon them to bless you.The good spirit dreams will find their way to the center and float down the sacred feather.
for those who are neither skilled nor creative, but want quiet dreams
for anyone who likes creation and wants to create a dreamcatcher exactly according to his own ideas
It is important to make a selection of colors to match your catcher. Depending on the colors that will prevail, you will dream:
You can choose wood or metal. Choose your size depending on how big the dreamcatcher you plan to create. An alternative is an embroidery hoop or go to nature for the willow rope and bend it into the shape of a circle (this was once created by the Indians).
We wrap the string around the ring, make the inner web and use it to hang the feathers. Cotton strings are most commonly used. Instead of cotton string, you can still use yarn or jute string.
You can choose the feathers in different shapes, sizes and colors - natural and colored in a variety of shades.
Also, beads can beautifully adorn the dreamcatcher. Select beads with a larger hole (1-2 mm) to fit the string and end of the feather. The most used are wooden beads, but you can also use glass or plastic.
