Dreamcatcher with cast pendants

A dreamcatcher is supposed to protect the sleeper and keep negative influences away. With our instructions, you can make a personal dream catcher with pendants you cast yourself. The finished dream catcher is a wonderful gift idea for birth or for your loved ones.

This is how the dream catcher is made:

1. First mix the casting powder with water to a creamy mass. 3 tablespoons of the casting powder are sufficient for the complete mould.

2. If desired, add some colour concentrate to the mixture and mix well. Pour the mixture into the moulds.

3. After approx. 2 hours, the castings can be carefully removed from the mould. Allow to dry completely for several hours.

4. Coat the feathers and angels with Glitter Glue and stamp them with Clear Stamps.

5. Cut 2 x 1m lengths of Cotton Cord Skinny.
Attach the cords to the metal ring using the Lechen Head Knot. This gives you 4 cords that now hang down from the ring.

6. Now start to tie the knot:

To do this, take 3 strings from the left and place them behind the metal ring. The right remaining cord is then passed behind the 3 cords, from below in front over the metal ring and from the front through the gap between the 3 cords and the metal ring. Now tighten all the cords.

Repeat this process, only this time start from the right. So again take the 3 cords and place them behind the metal ring. From the left, take the remaining cord, place it behind the 3 cords, pass the cord from there over the metal ring and pull the cord through the gap between the 3 cords and the metal ring. Tighten all the cords again.

Make sure that when you tighten the 3 cords that are on the outside are "stacked" on top of each other.

Continue in this way until you have reached the desired length and knot the ends to the metal ring.
