wrap one of the pieces around the wire…
bring it back to the starting point…

Start with a new piece of yarn and knot it just above your previous knot.Add some hot glue before making another knot so as to hold it in place.Now continue to wrap the yarn around the wire, making knots and adding glue as needed……until you are all done.cut a piece of yarn that is longer than the diameter of your circle
Tie the yarn to one end of your dream catcher and attach beads, buttons, etc. for decoration.
put the yarn through your bead/button a second time in order to secure it in place
…
Now tie the other end of the yarn to the opposite side of your dream catcher.

After decorating one half of your second piece of yarn, wrap it around the middle string…
…doing this will hold your pieces of yarn in place.

You can add some heavy beads to add some weight to your yarn.
Make a knot around your beads to hold them in place.

Bonjour tout le monde!
Certains de mes étudiants ont travaillé à fabriquer des capteurs de rêves lors des dernières semaines et j’ai pensé que je devais partager notre projet avec vous. Avant de les faire, nous avons eu une petite discussion sur ce que les rêves sont et le genre de rêves que nous pouvons faire. J’ai expliqué que le travail d’un capteur de rêves est d’attraper tous ces mauvais rêves afin de ne faire que des beaux rêves la nuit.
La semaine prochaine, je vais étendre ce projet avec des dessins et de la peinture, mais pour l’instant je suis très heureuse de la façon dont tout s’est passé.
Passez une bonne soirée et n’oubliez pas,
Just Speak!

Hello Everyone!
Some of my students have been working on making dream catchers for the last few weeks and I thought that I’d share our project with you. Before making them we had a little chat about what dreams are and what kind of dreams we can have. I explained that a dream catcher’s job is to catch all of those bad dreams so that we only have sweet dreams at night.
Next week I’ll extend this project with some drawing and painting but for now I’m very happy with how everything turned out.
