I found myself distracted from my cleaning today...I just couldn't get myself focused on the scrubbing. The whole time I was spraying and mopping I kept thinking to myself~I wonder if I can make a dream catcher. So finally I quit cleaning, scavenged some supplies and went to work.

All I can say it that sometimes it pays to keep random odd things around the house ( like a ball of hemp rope and some spare feathers...you never know, eh) The eclectic collection made my task a bit easier indeed.

So above images are of my very first dream catcher...We shall see if it works :o)

We made these when I was a kid and away at camp but if I tried to make on today I wouldn't have any idea where to begin. Pretty nice work for a first attempt. honeybee · 2010-07-03: 19:41

Number 1 has a very pleasing shape - very nice! I like your story too, it's nice to see what inspires people. (your use of the word 'eh' made me look at your profile to see if you were Canadian too, eh?) McMommy · 2010-07-03: 20:12

I am a compulsive collector of random odd things myself, but I don't think I keep shiny poultry feathers lying around, just in case they might come handy one day...(I am more into cardboard boxes and plastic bags myself!)...Now, this dream cathcher came out really nicely, and I hope it will catch wonderful dreams for you, Edgar! That feather was really worth hanging on to, see what an exquisite shine and color it has! :o)) atszabo · 2010-07-03: 23:38
