DREAMCATCHERS




Dreamcatchers are probably amongst the beloved spiritual objects from the Ojibway culture. Dreams have always had great meaning to First Nations people and it is believed that the night air is filled with dreams both good and bad. These dreams are captured in the dreamcatcher web and only good dreams are allowed to slip through the center hole to a sleeping person. Bad dreams become entangled in the web where they perish at first light. These dreamcatchers are made of traditional materials - deer hide lashing, gut (sinew) webbing, and natural feathers. Some dreamcatchers are made on metal rims which are covered with deer hide, while others are made from tree branches.

My dreamcatchers are made with authentic deer hide. The deers life was taken in a good way, and all parts of it were used in the way our Ancestors taught us.

They are adorned with glass beads and feathers.

PRICES VARY depending on size $20 (approx. 6" round) $95 ( for HUGE one )
