This dreamcatcher was made to represent some of the first documented styles of dreamcatchers which were made of grapevine or willow in the teardrop shape. These dreamcatchers are 6-8 in. across at the largest point. I have used wooden beads and feathers which came from the Silkie Bantams here on the farm. We do offer other dreamcatchers which are wrapped with muslin cloth.
The Indians made dreamcatchers to put near the bed (whatever that might have been at the time) of their children. While it was to catch the bad dreams and let the good dreams pass through this dreamcatcher was also to keep the baby occupied by watching the feather often dangling from the middle moving with the wind. The ones I offer have wooden beads, feathers and stones that have been hand-mined here at the farm. We attach a card that tells the story of the dreamcatcher. We have these dreamcatchers listed too.
