I have become slightly obsessed with making paper dreamcatchers. Often the body is round and there are three or five hanging aspects which have “feathers” and something to weight them down. Often I use squares or other funny shapes for the body part and the weights can be a whole variety of objects. The “feathers” too. I usually glue but often embroider things on them. Once photographed they can be chosen by friends to keep. I like the fact that there is a range to choose from and I could never predict what people will like. For sure they like to have a choice. These 40 dreamcatchers were made in a four day period. They help me get my creative juices going for the day. I have used pens, pencils, ink, paint, nail varnish and puff paint. I have added buttons from Sarabeth and Phil, leaves and flowers from around Mallety, small purple, pink and white interconnecting bricks (plus-plus), a unicorn rubber I made into thin slices and wooden butterflies and bug painted purple.
The unicorns kept falling off so I caught them all additionally with embroidery thread.
Soon to be released – Carly loves train journeys!
