Paper plate dream catchers

Equipment

• Scissors

• One hole punch

• Glue or Tape

Materials

• paper plate

• markers (or pencil crayons or crayons)

• stickers, pom poms, buttons, etc (for decorating plate)

• Yarn

• Pony beads (or other beads that will fit over yarn)

• feathers

Instructions Step 1: Prepare & decorate paper plate

• Carefully cut out the center, or inner circle, of the paper plate.
  

• Using a one hole punch, punch eight evenly spaced holes around the inside edge of the paper plate.
  

• Punch two holes in the top of the outer edge of the paper plate, roughly 2 inches apart - This will be where the dreamcatcher is hung. Punch three holes 2 inches apart on the bottom of the outer edge of the paper plate - These will be where the feathers hang. (Note, the photo is upside down.)
  

• Decorate the paper plate however you'd like! Draw patterns or shapes, or paint your paper plate. We used markers to make a line design on our plate.
  

• Use glue or crafters tape to attach decorations to the paper plate. You can attach pom poms, buttons, gemstones, sequins or anything else in your craft bin!
  

Step 2: Attach yarn

• Cut a 55 inch length of yarn. Tie one end to any of the inner holes, knotting it in place.
  

• Thread this yarn through the eight inner holes in whatever pattern you would like, crossing them over each other to create a web pattern. String beads on the yarn as you do so.
  

• Cut a 6 inch piece of yarn. Feed this through the top two outer holes and tie a knot in it. This will be the hanger.
  

• Cut 3 pieces of yarn, each of them 12 inches long. Tie feathers to one end of each strand. If the feathers slide out, add a dab of glue to keep them in place.
  

• Slide beads over each yarn strand, letting them fall on top of the feathers.
  

• Tie the other end of these three strands to the bottom three holes on the plate.
  

• Your dreamcatcher is complete!
